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!

NY&Co has FS on any order if anyone interested. Prices are not the greatest ( just hiked up from yesterday) but some items are at great price or in clearance.
coupon code 2754 for $25 off $60
and 2781 for $60 off $125.
Discounts distributed among the items? When do fs and discount expire?

I use the striped coral beach bag for returns. I ask to leave the bag on their counter while I look if I'm not doing my returns first Teehee

EEK! That's your money in there! I'd be afraid items would disappear from the bag. A lot of the counters at my VS' go "unmanned" at times.

That never occurred to me. I don't want them to think I'm stuffing stuff in there when I'm in the fitting room.

Iagree EEK!

if i wanted to browse before doing returns, i leave stuff in the car, or i just carry it with me. i don't mind making a trip to the car tho. it might be different if i had some DS's in tow like k, but it's usually just me.

It's more of me not wanting to bring a big bag to the fitting room.

Don't want to get accused of shoplifting.

Happened to me at baby depot when I was preggo with first. I went in with my returns in my bag went to check out line, pulled stuff out of my bag and they questioned it.

NY&Co site never mentions the expiration date of any offers they have ( may be so people will rush in to order! Scratchchin ) the coupon codes i got in email says it expires today.

That's definitely my favorite beach bag for now! 2 Rolled up beach towels + Kindle + sunblock fit perfectly. Wish I had 2 Cool
laugh out loud At the shopping bag with wheels. My returns go back in theTJMaxx reusable shopping bags [positivelysplendid.com] , which if I were any shorter, would touch the floor. They are huge and I probably look like a freak carrying so many returns around Crazy
I do carry so many returns ( bag full mostly) in that bag. Now I go to mall less frequently but I order online more so I have tons of items to return. Besides NY&Co does not price match EEK! so if they have better prices/coupon combo I would have to re -order everything again and return the previous order!
My most buys/returns are of JC Penney lately. I find JCP prices and items very attractive lately Stick Out Tongue
I bought this dress [jcpenney.com] and I love it so much I had to share this with yall Big Grin

i'm going to start bringing my vs.com returns inside my gold and beige March/April 2013 canvas Swim Tote bag to change things up. i'm sick of hauling mine around in plastic bags from macy's, Meijer, Kohl's, and Target.

Besides my shoulderbag purse, my shopping supplies--(i.e. $, coupons, receipt folder, scientific calculator)--take up enough space in my clear, hot magenta February 2013 see-through Swim Tote as it is. Guess you could call me Mary Poppins Big Grin!

random observation - Spring 2013 Volume 4 Catalogue is already posted online. seems kinda early; i thought the Spring 2012 Volume 4 Catalogue wasn't released until the halfway point in April 2012.

Which color did you get? That's one of the tankinis I want, but I'm too cheap to buy one now. I want this http://www.victoriassecret.com/sw...ueType=OLS one too. I hope the colors I want are still around, when they go on clearance.
i bought several, probably not keeping any. will buy on clearance. for the unforgettable, i ordered in 34b. i ordered some more in 36a. so when clearance comes around, i know what size to order for sure.

awwww hug sorry k. that sucks that they did that. i would have a fear of that too if that's happened to me before.

i guess somehow i always feel like it's more "official" of a return if i just bring it in a bag from that store. that's what i do most of the time.

Trust no one. When they're not locked up in the trunk or at your house Locked, keep an eye on everything, even if you have to secure it between your feet/legs/ankles while you're browsing. If your merchandise returns get lost or stolen indoors or outdoors, that's how much $ you won't be able to replace easily!

i, too, get rid of my heavy return pile early on so that they don't weigh me down during most of my visit.
