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 get them for exchanges with receipt also. that's how all my stores process even exchanges. i've also read complaints on fb stating that their exchange with receipt turned into exchange only, so i know i'm not alone.
since ever? for even exchange with mine, they adjust the price to match the original purchase but it doesn't become exchange only.

i didn't realize they are done differently in other stores.

Yes, I believe so. I'd have to go and check but it's possible my stores are just lazy and process even exchanges as no-receipt exchanges rather than adjust the price. But if your store does it a different way, then those who come across the lazy SA's will be SOL after the new return policy.

I need to go exchange some stuff now.

I think your stores are doing it wrong too. I've never got one on an even exchange with a receipt. That hurts you and it shouldn't.

I just got some swim orders. bounce

Forever Sexy Unforgettable Tankini in black http://www.victoriassecret.com/ss...=ay-306380 has sooooo much fabric. It's ruched on the sides as well as the front. It looks more like a shaping swim top. This is very disappointed, because it's so cute online. I may try to size down to see if that helps, but I'm not getting my hopes up. Frown

Forever Sexy Ruched Halter Tankini http://www.victoriassecret.com/sw...earch=true in white. I haven't tried it on yet. It appears to be see through. My skin is so fair that it may not even be noticeable, if it is. Stick Out Tongue It's much shorter than the Unforgettable & has much less fabric. Hopefully, this one will fit, so I can have at least one new suit for the weekend. I ordered the lemon swim bottoms to go with it.
Thanks for the review on the tankinis.. I was debating between those exact same two.. Smilie

Hi girls just a FYI that codes that say one time use when you apply the code online....now they enforce it over the phone too! =_=' before you used to be able to call in the code n they applied it no problem...now they refuse to do it. I hung up and tried different cs reps but they all said the code was used n it's one per account even if I had a different unique pin.
That's very good to know.. Frown



Just got back from trip to D.C, well, had to give the baby a bath first, but now he's napping... visited the family, they saw the baby.. last time they saw him in person and not on facetime chat, he was 2 months old. It was an extended visit. We stayed for 5 days.. I miss my mom and dad already.. Visited many sites.. my dad is starting to get really into groupon and amazon local deals, so we went on a river tour with his vouchers, and to a restaurant with more vouchers he bought.. laugh out loud.. I may have created a MONSTER! Roll.. I told him about how I shop online mostly..

My mom is looking for sleek.look by matrix shampoo 33oz.. she has entrusted me to find a good deal on it.. must search right now..

They're just taking away your ability to return it and get your money back or use coupons if you exchange. I know I'm crazy but I've returned something that I exchanged before. I don't like fitting rooms so I don't try on that often.

true. they are doing exactly that. i guess it hasn't happened that often for me. i usually do even exchanges for color or size and i usually keep it. i think there was one time a pair of jeans was defective so i exchanged it and they did that too - when i returned them later they had some issues giving me $ back but they eventually figured out how to do it. they probably did an exchange only receipt for the exchange, but i had the original receipt stapled on it also, so it was easy to argue. i didn't know that there was a better option! i have definitely read about ppl being screwed out of their ability to return stuff, on their fb page i think.

OMG I can't believe you like MicroCenter! I hate that place LOL hubs can spend hours in there. And I'm mad at them b/c the one we go to used to have some kind of gamer group, but the store disbanded it & I thought that was a total jerk move. When we go to MC, I head straight to the books area to see if I can find something interesting enough to kill an hour Wink

Roll.. DH and I were looking at all we could while we were there.. I already have a foscam camera, and I saw a whole wall of them there, and a bunch of other computer parts, checked of SSD's, external hard drives, games section.. DH and I love video games.. I love watching him play.. he loves that I watch him play... mostly just me bossing him around. "Hey, talk to that guy" or "Pick that up. No, I want that one" or "Dont forget to go to this area, and pick this option"
The baby limited our time there... we went on our drive back, so it was 6 miles out of the way total, and the total car ride back took us 6 1/2 hrs including the stop at MicroCenter, stop at Breezewood, stop at Giant Eagle, when it should have taken us 4 hrs.. Going to NJ end of June, so it WOULD be a 5 1/2 hr car ride if I went myself.. buy with the little guy, I anticipate 3 stops and 8hr car trip minimum.. maybe longer.. DH's friend is graduating from Law School, he's been in school for years..

last time i went to return, i mistakenly gave the sa the online return form instead of the invoice. at first she thought she'd just do a no-receipt return (likely it's the easiest for them) but she probably realized she can't, so i suggested she just look up by order number. i went through my bag and found the invoice and she was relieved laugh out loud she probably saw that i have so many orders she would have to put in the effort to look via order number.

So funny...when I saw the back cover the other day, I said "new model" to myself. Had no idea it was Kate.
