I can't figure out what to buy. Why does it have to be $75, why can't they just do it at $35. They overprice these GWP so you think you are getting something really expensive for freeshake head
i didn't have the luxury of shopping VS as much back then, but VS merchandise used to be less expensive in 2011 Smilie, compared to recent years when they jack up the prices Frown.
My first fancy bra cost $52 before my receipt survey coupon, but it looks like it could be a $55 or $58 bra.

According to Google Images and my 'Beach Towel Free with $75 Purchase' info cards, the 2011 towel held "a $24.50 value laugh out loud," whereas the 2012 towel jumped to "a $40 value Crazy."

I'm thinking about getting it instore. I want the black and gold swim bottoms and they're on Bo a really long time online. Decisions. I have a $15 perfume gc. Wonder if the sa will be a beeotch and not let that count for the $75. That would be a deal breaker laugh out loud.
Hm..I would probably get it in store. For things that have a long BO time, I almost feel like they won't ship and will be cancelled eventually if they can't fill the order. I have some BOs til June and I'm getting worried.

I like their towels. They're nice and plush. Definitely good for a beach towel.

I agree. The towels are nice. A lot nicer than the ones I buy from target or those silly beach stores when I forget mine at home.

I'll be disappointed if I miss out on at least trying the swim bottoms. Icey made me regret not buying them laugh out loud. They are really cute.

laugh out loud kids can be really cute sometimes..

Just got back from DH's aunt's house.. his cousins kids, 2 & 4 yrs old were there... the 4 year old goes up to my baby, he's 5 months old, we sat him up in the corner of the couch, she says "Why's he eating his hands. Grandma made food." .. and then she spent five minutes trying to get him to give her a high five... quite persistent... We then put the baby in his rocker/napper and served some food, we look back at the baby, and his cousins daughter is rocking the baby back and forth talking to him.. laugh out loud Heard her say "You can't have any cookies, the last one is for me"..

The first time DH's cousin saw a little lady (midget), she goes "Why's that kid got boobs and a purse?".. REALLY LOUDLY in the store...

I wanted to say that in my earlier post too, but I wasn't sure if I was the only one that felt that way laugh out loud

It would be nice if they were a tad longer though and wider nod

Just try those bottoms out. You can always return. Hopefully the SAs aren't PITA about the GC though. They shouldn't be...

Roll
they say the funniest things. he did a book for me a school. one of the lines when my mom is a magician because she ..... and he wrote she finds my teddy bear. Not so much a magician finding that darn thing laugh out loud. If only he knew the stress that thing has caused me. I tore up the house one night and even went through all the toy boxes and the bear was behind a door. So much drama with that bear.

those foldable flats probably don't come in kid sizes (since they're meant to be worn after your heels start to hurt) but maybe nords will have some in your size. i've seen some nicer ones on gilt/etc also. i just got the dr scholls type - they're not amazing but it was $9 for a 2 pack so i'm not complaining.
I have been wearing Fast Flats since the introduction. They are definitely last-resort footwear. You will feel every rock, peeble, and bump on the ground. However, it is definitely better than wearing your shoes that hurt. I always take them when I go to out at night other than dinner. Usually I am not on my feet enough for my shoes to hurt me if we just go to dinner. Most of my shoes do not hurt me anyway. However, they are great on the nights that they do.

I just tried this VS one piece http://www.victoriassecret.com/sw...ueType=OLS with this Express dress http://www.express.com/clothing/s.../cat840005. The swim suit exposed my stomach, which is a bad thing. EEK! It wouldn't have been quite as bad, if the cups fit. They were too small. I'll stick with tankinis. The dress would make a good cover-up, but I may need an XS. The S was long & kind of just hung on me. I'm concerned an XS may look tight when washed. I'm trying to decide if it's worth $13.77. DH say maybe. I'm on the fence.

:l ol: you ARE bossy today! very unlike you! :te ehee:

i do love them. the moleskin probably wouldn't help with my toe problem, but i do need to get some for my other shoes that have rubbing problems. (what happens with my middle toe is it ends up stubbing into the front of any shoe that has a pointy or almond toe and it's sore by the end of the night. the toenail ends up hurting, but i don't think i've gotten a black nail or anything like that yet. my feet are shaped funny - i think my 2nd toe is shorter than it's supposed to be.) the shoes are so sexy i wish my DH cared more about my shoes. :lo l: but he just wants me to be comfortable. :he art:

for phones - it depends on the wristlet. galaxy phones are notorious for getting bigger each generation (it's kinda silly imo) but if you do decide to go to android, you'll find phones of all sizes and you can choose a screen size that you like. my phone fits in my wallet from limited that has a cell phone pocket, but it's a snug fit. i do end up going online a lot on my phone tho... it's awesome to be so connected because i can comparison shop when i'm out shopping, etc. but it sounds like you're fine with having the iphone - its size is really great.


:wh ee: it's coming up next month... that sounds like a plan. i'm going to go find heel grips for these then! i'm running low.
Sorry, I'll try to do better. Blush

I can totally relate to your toe problem. My toe that was broken, & never reset, causes me problems. It sticks up causing blisters, plus the toenail turns downward. I have to keep the nail cut really short to keep it from cutting into my foot. Moleskin negates the blistering problem from it sticking up, but doesn't help with the cutting problem. Cutting my nail really short is the only thing that helps with that. I've recently taken Porda's advice & put moleskin in my shoes rather than on my skin. That works great!

You all convinced me to place a couple orders for towels, even though I like last years better. I already have a few of those. Facepalm

Kids can be really cute & really embarrassing. Big Grin I used to wish my DS was a little more clueless, when he was little. laugh out loud There were times, when I could have crawled under a table. It's sounds like your DS's cousin has a smart kid. Good luck to him. Stick Out Tongue
