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!

After digging through too many bags of clothes still in the plastic, I discovered my white jacket is the pleated sleeve jacket. Naturally, I had to try it on to see if I want more colors. Stick Out Tongue I agree it does run a tiny bit bigger than others I've gotten from Express, but that works for me. I ordered it in black & sand to see if I like it better than the sand jacket I have that's still in the bag. One khaki/sand jacket is probably enough. All the black jackets are different, so I don't feel so bad about getting another one.
Coverlaugh i love that you knew you had one and didn't know it was the same one.

what size did you get?

I thought you said your last quarter was $280? That's about how much mine was. We're you $350 this quarter? I'm usually about $100 as well. It is a nice bonus.
i have absolutely no recollection of saying that, but if i did then it makes sense that i'm getting 350 now! apparently the last time i got any payment from them was last august, so it's been accruing... i'm not sure why. but it's a nice big chunk of $ now!

I just opened jessica simpson bianca. very comfy for such a high heel. don't know if i could run in them but i'm sure i could sprint a short distance laugh out loud.

recommend them if you want a high sexy shoe that is wearable.

yall can probably find a better deal than nordstrom.

I only remember because mine was $250 (because of all of the sephora). When I posted yours, I felt like I wasn't as far out of line. Now, I feel much more out of line Smilie

Oh well, shopping is fun Smilie

was that at brea? that's where i went yesterday. that's where the SA asked why i was returning a $12 dress.
that mall has morphed since my hs days... i got so lost with the 2 macys. laugh out loud i went to the wrong one and had to turn around and go to the other one to return my shoes.
Nope, it was in West Co. Along with my bijillion returns laugh out loud
I got a lace cami for $4, I don't really like it because I thought it was going to be cotton, but it's the gross material that clings unforgivably. I'm debating if I should just gift it to my stick thin friend that loves lace or return.

Yeah, Brea has changed a bit, but I still looks much the same to me. Maybe I frequent it too often. shake head That Macy's thing totally threw me off when they first did that. Was so confused!

Quote from SHCLucia :
F.Y.I. Not every SA seems to know this, but one of my favorite SAs implied that there still isn't any limit for vs online returns in stores.
They make it sound like they only need your ID license info to verify your billing information for the refund part of it. (It used to not matter who dropped it off. :/ )

In person, they no longer turn in my Return Forms, but it takes a couple minutes longer to repeat the ID license ritual for each invoice i use or reuse.
There is no limit for online returns back to store. They shouldn't even ask for ID. As long as they don't scan it, I guess it's all right

I'm so guilty of hoarding boxes. I actually sent Nerdi a PM about this about a week ago, and my office is filled with bags I'm getting rid of.

I hoard bags and boxes too. I'm just afraid I won't have them when I need them to send something back or carry something back to the mall. I'm just glad I stopped doing the drugstore and target coupon thing. I was hoarding stuff I wasn't using. We get nice beauty products and makeup with deals so I don't really wear the makeup and most of the food is junk.

I love my jewelry and clothes and have gotten much better about my beauty products although I still hoard them. I was really bad for awhile with the beauty stuff.

i'm not crazy about them carding me ever since late April/early May. At least the newer-looking 'website return' receipts tell us on the spot how much we're getting back. Smilie

Luckily, i've never had to call CS to inquire about missing Return Confirmation emails..i can count on them for those as well! *knock on wood*

and here I am hoarding the ugly kind on boxes Roll.


I don't hoard mugs. DH takes them to work, and I never see them again. I need to start hoarding them maybe laugh out loud. Don't hoard electronics either. I'm not a techy. If it wasn't for dh, I wouldn't have the ipad or iphone. I doubt I'd have a smart phone. I don't try new things until he buys them for me and shows me how to use it.

are you talking about the ruched sleeve in sand? this pleated jacket is totally different. it's ok to own both... i do ; )
Yep, that's the other one I have. nod I may have to keep both, since you say they're so different. Teehee

The fault belongs to you girls. Bonk I buy things, when you all link them & say to buy it. When it comes, it gets added to the never ending pile of clothes I've yet to try on. Most of the time I forget what I ordered, before I get around to trying it on. It's like I get a surprise each time I open a bag. Stick Out Tongue

I got a 4. With most 4s, I have to wear a form fitting top for them to fit well. This style is a little bigger. It buttoned & looked fine with a loose top.

4. Beauty and Cleaning Products
Our experts have seen it a million times: The cabinet under the sink opens to reveal a mishmash of cleaning products, and the medicine cabinet hides a sticky, half-used lip gloss.


I thought medicine cabinets were for medicine. laugh out loud My medicine cabinets combined aren't big enough for my depleted beauty stash. There's no way any of you could begin to store your stashes in one.

5. Mugs
Coffee mugs and teacups seem like sensible souvenirs ("I'll use it every morning," we think) or fun novelty gifts, but it's easy to amass a set capable of serving cocoa for 50.


This person obviously doesn't have a teenager who takes off with all the cups & glasses. We have to constantly buy them, & we're not alone. I have cups, glasses, bowls I didn't buy, so they've come from our DS's girlfriend's or other friend's houses. Now we all have mismatched dishes. shake head I already told my DH that I'm sending all the old dishes, pots, pans, etc. with DS, when he moves out. I'm going to get new stuff that matches & isn't warped &/or scratched from so much abuse.

trust k - she wouldn't keep 2 jackets if they were at all similar. nod

i like the fit and looking at the photos i dug up for alvs i'm glad i got the 2 and not the 0. i'm not sure if that jacket is meant to be snug. it looks fine being a little wider.

We don't have a medicine cabinet. My dad does and there is no way. It's pretty small. Their experts would flip out if they saw my house. I have under the master sinks full of beauty stuff, under the gust bathroom full, some in the basement cabinets, under the bed, and an entire chest devoted to beauty. This is cutting back too Roll. It's not all mine. In the basement cabinets, dh and ds have some things.
