New name, same girls!

Let me reintroduce, the VS Social Thread!

bought the $26.50 lace back vs pink top. marked down to $12.99 - $10 off bday reward! didn't try it on, family didn't go inside the mall, just waited for me in the car. i was thinking of doing the panty raid, but i thought i'd take long picking out the panties. i went to the clearance rack instead.

also did a few exp returns. again, didn't try on stuff, i knew i couldn't buy if i can't use coupons.

I have officially decided to go on hiatus with VS. Went to do more in store returns and the terrible rude manager was there. They're swiping IDs again and she totally ignored what corporate said, even though I didn't have trouble this week until she came in the store. She told me that she's so well versed, that she doesn't have to listen to corporate and refused to call them.

So I called corporate, corporate called the store and backed the store up. I told them I'm surprised they don't have a single rule across the board. So I'm incredibly pissed because I'm being given the back and forth. Corporate said it won't count against me, but at this point, who knows. Corporate said that the store said they do it for high volume stores. I thought that to be laughable because when the nice manager was there, she gave me the sales number in comparison to the big store she was going to and my store is a teeny tiny tiny tiny store.

Anyway, they said this manager will be retrained and coached by the District Manager, but we shall see. I've stopped shopping at this store before and I can easily do it again. Whee

I'm on the fence about a lot of things I got with the $10 certs. I'll probably box some stuff up and send it all back. It's not worth my time wasting in store for the returns.

The store BS along with the limiting of the certs AND random shipping charges = last straw for me.

I'm done and done with VS. Taking a lot of wishlist items off and going on hiatus. Will save a lot of headache! Whee

Edit: Hiatus not so good cause I really like their jeans and shorts and tees. Facepalm

Did you try the strapless on? I ordered the regular, but I didn't like the color so I didn't take it out the bag. The strapless was a winner for me.
No, I'm not a strapless gal unless it's a super super amazingly flattering dress. I'm glad you like thought!!

they credited my returns. they owe me more than what you owe now. i am kinda so annoyed with all the discrepancies that i don't want to bother getting those shipping fees returned...all in all it should still be less than the $ from the certs so i'm not losing out THAT much...

i washed the ruffle bikinis so i can use them this weekend tho. Cool

I love the swimsuits but I've bought too many. Vs is just getting to be a pita. I've done good on my ban so far. I haven't ordered in 2 days.

I do really like most of the swimsuits though. There are a couple I'm not in love with that I won't mind parting with.

nod I'm returning all my pricier swim for the cheaper swim I got. I think I might have a negative after I return all this swim.

I've been wanting to buy this one dress [victoriassecret.com] in multiple colors because I love the look and fit, but I am so mad at them and don't want to keep giving them business!

Yeah, with this shady business, I feel like they are cheating customers out of money and I'm not cool with that. At all.

That dress is pretty! I wanted to try it. How long would it be in me?

I bought some black uggs from them. I've kind of had regrets. They're cute but the black suede will pick up everything. I've had some before. I think the uggs and a dress are going back. That will be ~$160 right there. I don't love the dress either and I paid $30. Don't know why I've kept it this long because I get express dresses I love for that price Doh.

Yeah, definitely send it back.

The cap sleeve dress IS nice. Really nice ponte knit kind of material.

I'm 5'3". It hits me at the knees. However, I don't really have chesticles that would bring the dress up higher. So I *think* it will also hit you at the knees with your chesticles nod Smilie Dang it. I need to find that mirror of mine and take pics to show you girls. I recommend it. Give it a try! I have it in the red. It's not a deep red, but it's still a pretty red. I haven't bought dresses from them in a while because there's nothing I love anymore.

Their bra designs are mostly okay for me, once in a while, there will be a great one. I like their swim, and most of their tops are just thin and Yuk
