Oooh, I scan every order form I ship back for VS, so I guess I would print that out to take it's place Scratchchin
Scratchhead Did I forget to mention the boxes full of papers that I have never opened? I'm not sure the binder system has been put through its paces yet and is ready for the "big leagues"

Ahh, maybe I'm thinking of someone else. It could have something to do with width of shoulders/back. That's one of my smaller dimensions- they swim in most size 4 Exp. jackets.

Yes, that means you never really wanted it Teehee Today I got home to realize I bought the exact same pair of jeans in-store last week (Size, style, wash)... does that mean I reaaaaaaally wanted it? LMAO
...
true - i have wider shoulders and usually take a larger jacket size than skirt/pant size.

and yes, it means that you reeeeeeally want it! i'd keep a 2nd pair as backup... laugh out loud

i stopped scanning my vs returns. it got to be too much. i was taking photos of them for awhile, but got lazy the last 2 times. instead i put all the returns in a spreadsheet so i can cross-reference when the credits come in.
Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
instore i believe it says no and online it can be combined.

would love it if you're not using it.
i think it should combine.
oh ok, it looked like she wanted to combine in store and i got confused.
k i'll send them to you later. i'm still boycotting.

just noticed this top in clearance. i have the white one already. ordered the others because i love it.

also how is the corset skirt that's marked 29.99?
http://www.express.com/studio-str.../index.pro
thanks for that! how is the ivory shirt - is it very sheer? i ordered it when it first came out and it was too sheer for me. i'm considering blue and purple (but i have sooo much blue stuff already).

I am still stalking those stupid Express jeans in 0Short, I hope they make a comeback soon! Definitely before my 90days is up! And while they still have the B1G1 look around The same jean in a different wash had 0 Shorts come BIS.

Thanks! I hope so! It could be like the one from the past where you had to buy it - PWP Mad

Thanks!! I guess I will have to get my PBOS bra in store then! If only...
Quote from PordaPoddy :
I should clarify, it wasn't the application for credit increase (I just did that yesterday - although that might also have that effect, I don't know), it was that I charged up within $1 of the limit EEK! so I guess we want really high lines of credit, but we're not supposed to come close to fully exercising them. I track my score month to month now with the free service provided through Experian - creditsesame.com .

I had the card less than a month before I needed an increase Facepalm . Yeah, VS automatically increased mine and I can't say how it affected my credit to go near the limit since I wasn't monitoring my score that closely before.

That's a good idea to throw out old slips. I don't know if I can bring myself to do that... Embarrassment You can see how I might have a house full of anxiety-inducing clutter... stuffed into boxes labeled 'SORT'.

I'm so undisciplined, I have to make up all these rules. I hope you gals can use the ideas... I'll probably abandon them in a few weeks. I also started hanging everything I buy that I'm not sure about. Items sit at the front of the closet, staring me down every time I open the door. Now, they get ample opportunity to entice me, whereas they used to be stored in their shopping bag with the receipt. It also forces me to make sure I have enough room (= hangers hehee) for clothes. Of course, I'm out of hangers LMAO
I can't throw out old slips either unless I didn't have the item anymore (closet purge) or used it up (Sephora). Why keep the slip then. slips = less room = clutter physically AND mentally.

Doesn't checking your credit score month drop your score because they have to do a hard pull? Might that be why? I've been wanting to check my credit score, but been afraid that it would get lowered because OF that. I will need to check it soon!

My closet is so full, I can't even close the doors! I actually am the opposite of you - if new items from online that come and I'm unsure of, I just kind of let it sit in the bag somewhere on the floor in a pile and once that pile gets frustrating, I start getting angry and returning!

I guess things are good being hidden in boxes labeled "sort" versus displayed and brain power needs to be used to remember that it needs to be sorted. Like me shake head
Quote from teenbean :
For a good credit score, you should only utilize up to 50% of your credit limit per card. Once you go over 50%, your score will be affected.
Thanks for this! This is helpful!

Wow, you are diligent!! I just keep it all in a spreadsheet and the slips too. When I had to do my giant box of returns sometime back, I was having a miserable time and started including item numbers on my spreadsheet to reference as well!
