I didn't even check the expiration date. I am waiting for the V-Day lingerie. It may be this week online.
I think the end of April. I didn't check either.

Wow, I would never give dress #2 the time of day from the photo of the model. It's quite cute! Your photo has me thinking about it Girly You and Alvs are brave to bring DH's and DS's to the mall, esp on a busy weekend.

I need dh there on a busy weekend to help. I'm not sure if this is a good idea or not laugh out loud!

Heads up to everyone who used the free shipping returns swim shipping code, make sure they didn't charge you an extra $12 when your merchandise shipped. It's super shady because the order confirm shows the correct amount. The shipment confirmation shows the correct item price breakdown AND s&h shows free but the numbers don't add up. Called vs n they said I placed the order in store n it didn't apply correctly "for some reason" What bs. I told her this was an online order. She wasnt at all apologetic, but she said I'd receive a credit for the difference in 7-10 business days. Super shady

my express reward is $30. unfortunately after i return stuff i will be deep in the negative. : (
I got a $90 & a $15 this month & have nothing I plan to return. That's worse! Obviously, I spent too much money there in Dec. EEK!

Quote from red333 :
I'm so excited : ) I went to my VS today, and they had my boxing gloves. They were marked $36.50 but rang up $42.50. I bought two pairs. They gave them to me for the $36.50. I bought some other things, used a survey coupon and some store credit I had and only paid $14.xx OOP. I also got the tote and ear buds.

The same gloves were $40 at sports authority (with no free tote), so I found a deal in a very unlikely place. It's only fitting that I found exactly what I needed at VS : )

So happy!!!
Nice deal! High Five

Quote from PordaPoddy :
. . .
It's amazing to be surrounded by a diverse crowd in your formative years. We all joked around and were self-deprecating about our cultures/stereotypes. That helped me learn a lot about what others viewed in their own culture as their strengths and vulnerabilities. Family interactions/expectations were so interesting too! I kind of feel like my friends got the short end of the learning stick- the only knowledge gleaned from my contribution was that Jerry Springer/soap opera families do exist :lo l:
...
Pants - don't know yet. Already have a white pair. Maybe pastel mint or the brighter coral. I could also just go ivory - not very daring, but it's different from jeans so it is daring for me! I've been looking at J's Everyday Fashions and she wears bright pants alot. Sometimes to play them down, she just wears an even brighter top - but I don't know if that's our style :te ehee: . .. . .
I think it got worse for me since I haven't been working out :fle x: . I'm not confident that I could fend something off and I have yet to replace my pepper spray :numc huck: I try to explain this to DH, but I don't know how to convey the feelings without reverting to some kind of prison analogy about dropping the soap in the shower and opening yourself up for an attack. :cra zy:
My DS has been exposed to more cultures than I was, but not many. I wish we had a more diverse population around here. Where I grew up, not only did we not have many races, we didn't even have Catholics & Jews. Everyone had the same cultural background. The only difference was whether you were Free Will Baptist or Missionary Baptist, both of which are Christians. laugh out loud The unusual families were the ones with a single parent household & those were really rare. I had one good friend who lived with her mom full time. Her dad wasn't even in the picture. I always envied her. She got away with a lot more than the rest of us did. I loved staying at her house. Teehee When I ask cultural questions here, I'm not trying to be nosy or judgmental. I'm just trying to learn to better understand everyone & appreciate how they grew up/live. I'm really fascinated by different cultures.

I totally understand not being able to defend yourself. Not only am I little with no muscles, I'm also not healthy. That's not my main concern with showing a lot of cleavage though. I also don't like being ogled like a piece of meat.Annoyed Some men are ridiculous.

Quote from kurips :
i took longer time at express today because i was on a mission to find exchanges. my boys got very impatient. ds said, "we're not bringing you again" :rof l2: explained to him i've been putting all of them first the whole time, he should allow me some time to do the things i want to do too. dh agreed with me, although he was getting impatient also that time, then explains he was just getting tired :lo l:

anyways i now have the blue peplum dress. i tried both the 2 and the 4. i think the 2 did look better if i wasn't planning to move :te ehee: i ended up with the 4 again.

also exchanged this top [express.com] from xs to s. the xs did work but it doesn't look flowy and will be easy to outgrow.

bought hibiscus :te ehee: dress [express.com] in s (have the xs in order but i thought the s already looked right so the xs might be a little small) and this dress [express.com] in xs (tried the s too and also works but i liked the less loose look)

also found that shoes i missed before... $10 now!

tried on the zebra sweaterdress in xs and it fits ok. i think i'd wait for more patterns they'll come out with.

Oh... and a random little girl (10-11is) complimented me on my crackle moto jacket in the restaurant. I guess my style appeals to little girls :l ol:
Your DS says the funniest things. They really believe their opinion matters on what we do. laugh out loud

I'm glad you found your shoes. Whee They'll look fabulous on you. A little tip...You need to wear them to look fabulous in them. Wink

Quote from azn1x6flame :
I also saw the Vday red merrywidow [vspressroom.com]. It's sooooo cute! I didn't have time to try it in person today, but I'll probably have them take one off the mannequin so that I can try it on. They don't have it online yet. They said it was bombshell, but I felt the cups and it seems to be the regular Very Sexy. :do ntknow: Excited to go and try it tomorrow!
I'd like to buy that rose corset for DH for Valentine's Day, but I'm not willing to pay that much for lingerie. Frown It's so cute.
