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!

I noticed that the prefix AND the item numbers have changed.. makes looking up your item more difficult.. check the catalogue here to find your items!

Thanks for the update.

i don't get this:
http://www.kohls.com/product/prd-...imsuit.jsp

aren't swimsuits supposed to be snug? not sure what would happen when you get in the water with this one... i think it'd just look weird.
They're great for people who are heavy. It keeps them from looking preggo like a regular one piece can do.

Quote from nerdicus :
you can be... ppl have reported about that and they seem to be cracking down on it. they got rid of the automated direct line to backorders... last time i called it it went straight to cust serv.
I had no idea. It's been a long time, since I cancelled a b/o. I hated that the system cancelled all my backorders, when I tried to cancel one. It appears there's no way to prevent being overcharged now.

Quote from aJoLLyDork :
howdy! now that it's almost summer, work is "slower" and I can be active in this chat thread again! I've caught up reading the last 20 pages or so.

@Porda: I felt the earthquake too... my co-worker and I were sitting and then we were like whoa... luckily, it was only 2-3 seconds.

@Everyone: What do yall think of the Incredible sports bra? I think it's pretty new, but looks really sturdy. I'm waiting for it to be "on sale." Anyone bought it and can provide a review?

Also, anyone know if Express is doing any additional x% off clearance in stores?
Wave As alvs said, it's probably 30% like online. There will probably be a Memorial Day sale for 40% off everything, but that hasn't been confirmed.

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
You sound like me. I like to change clothes a lot! Your state is awesome to shop in. Always buy way too much there :te ehee:.
That was normal shopping for me, when I used to go out every day. laugh out loud When we have out of town guests, I still get my fair share of shopping in.

I hate feeling sweaty or generally not fresh. We don't think going to dinner on vacay is enjoyable, without a shower & fresh clothing. That's our normal routine regardless of where we vacation.

i must say - as nice as it is to have jcp ship to store, their system sucks... i have to keep checking to see if my item is at the store. how about adding an email notification?! seems intuitive enough... you already have our email... seems easier to send an automated email rather than have someone call you personally!

in any case, it looks like 2 orders are at the store but i haven't gotten calls yet. my last order (using 10/10 coupon - free sweater) is "pending shipment"... not sure if that means it will actually ship.
I am waiting for two orders, one I had a 5/5 and the other I got off Razor Deals a 10/10 well I used it a couple times and one got cancelled. I got an email saying the 10/10 was posted on a site it should have not been but they would only honor one of my orders, which was the first one. Which was totally free. The second one I would have paid a few dollars for.

I sometimes do the tote promos to. Last one I did in store they sold for after the promo was over and I bought it and used a 10 off 30, which thinking about it, it was ok deal but probably should not have done it but least I did not have to buy xx.xx amount of stuff to get it for xx.xx.
I've done that before! I think it was 75% off msrp plus the coupon. Great deal if your store has leftovers. Normally the smaller malls do. I think smaller malls have better sales in general. The big malls get picked over so fast.

I'm the same way. Sometimes, especially while on vacay, I feel like I waste time getting ready. I must be fresh and clean though!

My mall is probably considered between small and larger, it has two floors, but only one main walkway with stores on each side. No branching of stores off to the side(accept two mall entry ways and that is only places like food/dental and maybe a specialty store like Sports items. So basically a l straight line.

?
its very true to size. i'm normally 36B and 36B in the incredible fit. it was a little snug around the chest band, but im guessing it will stretch as you exercise more. the cups fit perfect too, no space in between. i felt like the girls were held well in place. i havent exercised since i got that bra though laugh out loud but it should be fine since it advertises maximum support. i dont think there will be much bouncing around.

My youngest is like you guys, has to bring so many outfits which equal to probably 2-3 a day. She can't be seen in same outfit twice and if she gets anything on it she has to go change it right away. We stay were there are washing machines and I tell her we can wash so you don't have to bring so much. I think she is more worried about her future husband seeing her in the same outfit, which where we are going she will not see her future husband, lol.

Have you tried calling it lately? Last time I tried it went straight to cs. I hung up and tried again but didn't work. I gave up and went thru the regular way.

Thanks SmilingHelen for all the links!

My VS account has fallen ill to the SP1336829 code. Sadwalk
Q - In new accounts are you guys able to use more than one or is shutting you down after order #1?


Quote from azn1x6flame :
I actually got rid of all my boulces because I hated how they pilled and my white ones collected the pills of other colors or something like that. I found a closed lid thing that I use to store all my old letters. Decided to put the letters away in storage and in a few years, toss them.

I have only the Express sweaters to worry about and those don't seem too bad.

I only have 3 sets of black bikinis. One time, I accidentally purchased two of the same triangle tops shake head
...
Yeah, in addition to the pilling, the tiny bit of wool in the boucles scratched me too. They were quite schmexy though!
Quote from GoHeels :
Are you trying to tell me something? Stick Out Tongue I'm a shut-in most of the time, but not because I'm paranoid. I only go out, when there's a special reason to. If I go out every day, my body starts to get fatigued & I get ligament tearing that's irreversible. To be paranoid I'd have to watch the news. It's too depressing for me. I get what little news I know about from DH, you girls, or AOL, when I log on to check my email.
...
laugh out loud no! Although you thinking that I might be says more about you than me Harhar Yes- for my mom it's all day news and newspaper. Also - we are your social group! Grouphug

Quote from GoHeels :
I love those bottoms. I already have a few pair, but not that color. Those will go with several solid tops. That's one certificate spent. Teehee
...
I'm in trouble... Now I want all kinds of stripe bikinis. First it was that one... then SH posted the one and then I remembered there's another one with gold metallic stripes in b/w the sorbet-ish colors... I can't think, I'll just order them all and decide later!
