It's too far for weekly trips.

I just did a return and they didn't ask for ID woot So calling did work! I wish I called earlier, but was so busy. I was listening to one of the nicer managers train that new girl and she actually said that there's a button for "NO ID" GRRR. All this time shake head

Except they put all my returns from different accounts into one bag Facepalm They were training someone new. I should've been more careful shake head

Usually that means it's being shipped by USPS. I never get the tracking on the order page, so I just look it up when I eventually get my email
Whee I'm glad calling helped!

Just wondering, how do you know when your account is "locked" with VS? Will codes just stop working?

Also, on another note, I have tried returning something with the GWP towel and they did not ask for the towel back even though it was shown on the bottom and top of the invoice. They did a full refund for the item I had paid for.
Was this in store?

I need your advice of how to make more room for stuff.

Yall are avid shoppers and I am wondering how do you store all your stuff. Over the weekend, I was doing a cleaning and had trouble putting things away b/c I had no more room.

I think I'm also a secret hoarder or something b/c I have difficulty parting with things even though I may not have worn something yet, but it was probably bought over a 2+ years ago.

Once in awhile, I go through this and get rid of a LOT of stuff and then I have remorse. For example, I still think about this particular pair of shoes which I donated a few years ago b/c I was so overwhelmed with cleaning and such.

Any tips?
For me, I've been denying that I'm a hoarder. I have a lot of anxiety issues because of this and I get stressed really easily because I don't have a good way with working on these issues. But that's just me.

HOWEVER, I felt that reading those online stories about people letting go of sentimental items really helped. I don't like those "7 ways to declutter" which are all about those "rules" we all know...

What has helped me was boxing things up - things that I just don't want in my sight or taking up room, and then storing them. Right about now is the time I would want to go through them again and I found that a lot of the stuff I boxed up, I can let go.

So box em up, and then put a date to go back if you are unsure.

With clothes, I used to just hang on to things that didn't quite feel right, impulse purchases, etc...I am still of the mentality that "oh, I can pass this down to my way in the future kids." But, that being said, I've been letting go of items I feel that I don't want my future kids to wear and that I wouldn't pass down to them. I've also decided to get rid of ill fitting clothes, bras, and everything else that current me would not wear. I'm also getting better of just returning things I don't like. Even if I did get a sweet deal on it.

I think that the approach of taking pictures of sentimental things and then tossing it is kind of helping me. I've yet to do that. I'm planning on taking a picture of it and then storing it, and eventually chucking it.

Sorry that was long. I hope it helps you. I'm trying to help myself too and I hope this works. There's just so much stimulation around me that I just need. a. break.

hmmm not sure. color code is G47 which is different from that other peach ruffle bikini set (032).
If ya'll are discussing the Ruffle Bikini and the Heart Bikini, the peach colors are not a match.

For those free return labels, are you able to use them with an order that is not the original order? ie, I won't be returning the original order that the label came with but a different order that I'd like to use the label with instead

Yep, that's correct. You can definitely do that.

Are you talking about clothes or other things too?

For clothes I just have a closet with the sliding doors. I'm single so I have the whole closet to myself. I installed a rubbermaid closet solution so that I could get twice as much stuff in it. In the upper left side I hang my winter clothes, bottom left is short sleeves. Upper right is tanks and dresses and then in the lower right I have my shoes.

When ever I wash something I hang it back up in the closet in the center of the closet and then the unworn clothes are slid to the outer edges. That helps me keep track of what clothes I have worn and haven't worn. Sometimes I attach a piece a paper with today's date to a hanger in the center of the closet. A year later I can see what clothes I haven't worn in at least a year and so I will go through those clothes and give them to charity.

I also use the huggable hangers (generic version) to fit more stuff in my closet.


I think we all might have slight hoarding issues. laugh out loud I am trying to decrease the clutter by not buying something unless I have a place to put it. I just recently inherited some of my grandmothers knickknacks and I need to get rid of my old stuff in order to display hers properly.
