wait, it's see through? Frown i thought it wasn't. the polka dot isn't too bad!

i don't own a half slip... Shutup but you mentioning it reminded me of the youtube personality 'happy slip'. ever watch her videos? i think they're hilarious and you might understand some of the cultural stuff in her skits better than me.

wow, i'm glad you got them to honor it! i just hit 'reply' only so that a copy of the invoice etc are on the email. i haven't been using the auto emails either since they stopped monitoring it.
i don't think it's see-through... just dh always imagines my panties i think. i did it to ease his mind.

yeah i've seen happy slip. that's how my mom pronounced it, and i thought it was correct too laugh out loud

that's the one i tried. they had both but the coral wasn't in-stock in my size. both prints are cute. this one looked kind of like a bandana to me. i like the coral better.

I just threw away quite a few things I was holding on to in my previous decluttering binges. It's so much easier to go back with a different perspective and toss things! The decluttering continues! I tackle my closet once or twice a year and I kind of feel that itch coming back...
I have found that putting things away in a bag with receipt is good when I'm not sure about it. When the return deadline hits, I look at it really critically. If I still feel like 'oh I'm really not sure,' that's not good enough - it has to go. I have so much already that new additions can't be Maybes. They have to be something really exciting to make it into the rotation of what actually gets Worn. So something I feel ambivalent about just has to be rejected. Ultimately, what I'm saying is a method for controlling clutter on the incoming side is to raise the standard, raise the bar for what makes it into your closet & keep the bar high.

If you hate doing returns, this will really make you think twice before buying, too.

Monitoring the entry point is important for me b/c I have a problem with getting rid of things. It's easier for me to get rid of something while it's still returnable. If I can't return, I feel bad b/c spent $$ and I feel like I threw $$ away Frown I have a lot of things I can't let go of b/c I remember the price & feel like I should try to sell [but I hate the hassle, so it sits there].

we have our regular mailers (i never got one this time Annoyed but alvs posted her code) but who knows if they'll work... my guess is they'll do a sale, no coupons again. not sure if they'll allow the birthday coupon but they may - and it would be a great time for those may birthdays to use their coupon in store.

do you have a-list FS? i can't keep track of the a-list girls... we need a list!
no! I don't even have the CC..yet... I'm waiting until our mortgage closes in a few weeks. Bank asked us not to open any new accounts during this time....so after it does, I will sign up for it. I have a June birthday...do they send out the coupons early? I never got a may mailer either.

I think I will be forgoing the glitch tonight. I don't have anymore lower coupons, I don't think. Need to check, but couldn't find any the last time I tried.

I'm planning on getting two minus the jackets with my rewards.

are you planning on using reward plus coupon? they'll probably stop coupons for the sale like they always do...

Yeah, I agree there. I've been getting a lot better at that in the last year or so.

Yeah, it's hard for me to get rid of some clothes because of what I paid for it, but now, I'm having the problem of paying soo low OOP that..maybe I should just keep it to wear around the house or something. My issue is that I also like to have multiples of the same color, especially when it's super cheap Facepalm I have having to return/rebuy, but if I'm getting that same item 50% off, I'm going to go through the hassle.

I think just rewards. I don't want to have to deal with my rewards being eaten by the glitch. I'm certain they'll stop the coupons. But if I might for things I don't care to have, but want to try.

Do you still want me to let you know when it goes live? Or you're pretty certain you'll skip out?

let me know if you're around when it happens! i didn't load my car with my returns so i'll have to stop by home first...

and wow! well your rewards won't get eaten up with the glitch but coupons might.
