New name, same girls!

Let me reintroduce, the VS Social Thread!

Since the Social Threads seem to have been done away with, this is the new home of the VS Social Thread. We talk about everything from VS to Express to Beauty to Coupons to Hot Deals...and of course, our personal lives.

Roll call! Let's get back to what we do!

You were able to use your bday code with clearance? Mine won't work. Frown
Could have just been luck. Sometimes clearance does that. There are also 2 different emails. They have different subjects. Not sure if its the same code or not but I'll check whenever I get some time at my desktop.

I put them in a clear plastic box. It's overflowing now laugh out loud I have certain ones separated out into smaller boxes like eye creams, hair products, fragrance (which I dont use so I tend to give away)

I can't post unless I answer someone. Confused
Is there a limit to number of V$$ that can be used and can they combine with coupon code? Thanks.

Weird.

They can only be combined with reward cards. I've never had a limit.

I put them in makeup bags, separated by type and brand. I've been using up all my samples before hitting my full sized skin care items. If I have 3 eye creams from Boscia or something and I decide to use it, I pour all three out to a jar container and use from there. Helps deplete it faster.

I put all the packetts together. I put the deluxe samples that I intend to use with my other organized stash. I use makeup bags and small plastic boxes depending on the item. I also have a to be ebayed box of samples laugh out loud.

That is a good idea! I do that too with products I use. Classy told me to do that a few years ago.

Finally! That woman is starting to make sense!

She went with the no microwave idea.
AND she wants to go with the DB BM dresses we initially tried on:
Cowl Neck [davidsbridal.com], A-line [davidsbridal.com], One shoulder [davidsbridal.com]

GAWD! I don't know WTF is her problem! It's like she's creating stress from nowhere. I point blank asked her what her problem was with these dresses. Then she gushes about loving them. I hope she just is okay with them. I told her just to get them. And gave her a long list of why it would be stupid to not just go with these original dresses since she loved them initially and I guess she is back to loving them, but she wanted to see what was "out there" because she had "so much time." I hope she snaps back to reality and BMzilla stops whispering sh!t into her ear!

I don't know about the non matching dress thing. She said she didn't want us to all "look like her puppets" :rolleyes :

I'm just kind pissed she sent us on a wild goose chase for months when she loved these dresses in the first place :mad : /rant
Yay for not having to make those yucky microwave brownies! Smilie Sounds like she might be an idealist and became indecisive because of that. Good thing that you confronted her and are keeping her grounded.

Does that mean she took GH's idea on putting the ingredients in the mug and let the guests microwave it themselves? Or is she doing something else?

Hang in there, azn! hug

:lol : She could be quite the player herself. Maybe she's doing a "Big Sister" program - helping break young musician's hearts so they'll have their own material to work with. She's such a giver :sly :

:blush : Aww thank you. I usually get creative with my joking because I'm trying not to swear - so if you any swearing, it's because I got lazy. Genuinely, thank you for letting me know you enjoy them. :hug :I know my humor can be out there and sometimes I wonder if anyone's out there with me :paperbag :
:blush2 :Thanks chica, you gals put a huge grin on my face today - for me that's a primo compliment. You know I love to make people laugh! :happy :
You're welcome, PP! Keep up the good work! Blowkiss

Hope everything went okay at the doctor's. Best of luck to you!

I wouldn't use the rewards with the v$ though. It comes off before them (at least it did for me a few months ago).
