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!

Now, you're probably not going to believe this...but when DH used to go to TX every week (Mon PM - F), he would only take his backpack (stuffed w/ laptop, headphones, etc) and THIS TEENY THING [ebags.com] . When I would pick him up at the airport at the end of the week, he was smelling pretty ripe. He had the right # of undergarments but was reusing pants (and shirts? Dontknow )Thankfully he has upgraded to a larger carry-on. He would really rather carry more tech gear than more clothes. He used to bring a guitar with him so he would he could practice while he was away. For the HI trip, he had about 75lbs of carry-ons b/w the tech stuffed backpack and all the camera equipment. I end up carrying that stuff half the time so I guess he's the over packer Roll
Goodness. That's nuts. I'd imagine he'd be a pretty successful packer if he's traveling so much. Isn't it usually the other way around - guys carrying the stuff for girls? shake head

Those look really comfy.

I can balance fine in heels. Wedges with skinny bottoms are hard for me. I'd rather wear stilettos any day than a wedge with a skinny bottom.
Ditto. Wedges with a skinny bottom scares me.

interesting! i have comfy wedges but i don't really notice the bottoms. i'll bet they have a wider bottom.

i have center of gravity issues. probably don't need to add to them. laugh out loud

those bcbg shoes are pretty comfy tho. i didn't have time to really try them on, but i slipped my foot in and it didn't feel narrow like some reviewers said.

Does anyone have VS Corporate number? I want to call and ask about the number of online returns we are limited to in store.

I lost the number somewhere during my phone switches.

Yes! Thank you! I don't know why I didn't think to search for it. Thought maybe one of you gals had it handy Smilie

I called them and VS Corporate told me that in CA, they are NOT SUPPOSED to run your ID through for online returns. There was a specific memo sent out to all the stores. I told them that it basically does not make me want to buy anything online anymore, and it doesn't.

So they are calling my store. Hopefully they will get it resolved. I think I'm already at like 5 swipes for online returns

oOoo CA has some strict laws it seems... like express said that in CA they can't look up your next ID with phone # anymore! and that it was just in CA and they got a memo.

thanks for calling!

Yeah, I guess in CA it's the law to swipe for in store returns without a receipt. Just ridiculous that they do it even WITH a receipt. But the fact that they do it with online returns is just plain BS.

They told me to have them call corporate immediately while I'm there if they try swiping my ID again.

I sure as hell wouldn't want to shop online anymore. I bet the store doesn't like me since I hardly ever shop in their store and just do online returns laugh out loud

i remember once when i was checking out at santa anita, the girl that helped me was telling another SA that 90% of her transactions that day were returns (i think i was returning stuff too). you're not alone!

laugh out loud Oh well.

I hope they get my store in shape since I am planning a lot of returns. I like returning in store now that I'm getting my $$ back.

I just find it funny that the manager challenged me to call corporate now since she was adamant that she was right. I will be glad to have her do my returns and if she challenges me, she can eat her words when I make her call corporate in front of me. Evillaugh

Thanks for calling. I will have to keep an eye when I go into the store next time and if they swipe it, I will call corporate too.

When I went to do an online return in store last week, the SA was adamant that I needed to have the FULL order invoice, not just the tear off bottom return portion, then when I told her that I've never heard that, and I've had no problems before with just the bottom portion, she acted like she was doing me a favor by returning it by scanning the return part of the invoice... probably trying to make sure people doing returns send back the extras if the order has those... mine didn't for that order in any case, but we'll see how things go when I end up exchanging a swim order more than likely.. seeing as my towel has shipped woot
