I don't know why they act that way about SRC because whether it be MC or exchange you are still keeping the money in the store.
Exactly! Oh well. It's their loss anyway

did anyone get the sephora email about the 250 point perk? i got it on one of my non-vib accounts... 6 deluxe samples for 250 points, in store only this weekend. fine print:
* Offer is available online and in US stores while supplies last. Offer not available in Canada or Sephora inside jcpenney stores. Redeem the 500-Point Summer Starter Kit Reward for 250 Points only June 14, 2013 through June 16, 2013. Offer ends June 16, 2013 at 11:59 pm PDT. Purchase required to redeem online. Not valid on previous purchases or purchases of eGift certificates or gift cards. One reward per client, not transferable. Must be a registered Beauty Insider to redeem offer. Sample substitutions may occur. Not valid for cash or cash equivalent. May not be sold or otherwise transferred. This offer is subject to termination by Sephora in its discretion at any time.

it includes lancome hypnose star, anastasia brow gel, shiseido sunscreen, hourglass primer, some bareminerals multi-wrinkle repair, and dr jart bb cream. i want it! but i wonder if i can get it using my vib acct. Scratchchin
That sounds neat.. I just placed 2 orders on my sisters Sephora VIB account for my mom for 3 different matte eyeshadows. Mom said she'll pick the one or two that she wants and we'll return the rest. I placed both orders with VIB codes (VIBLASH and VIBTARTE). I don't have to return the samples when I return 1 or 2 of the eyeshadows, do I? Sister now has 240 points, so if she goes in store, she can get this if it's available to her. I'll let her know to check and try to get it if she wants it. Also, if you get the Bday gift online, can you also get it in store? I redeemed my sisters Bday gift, but I'm not sure if that means she can't get it in store. If she can't, I'll give her the gift when I see her.

I wanted to order the phone when it was $150, minus the $10 BOA deal... and now that it's $130 and there is another $10 BOA deal available, I'm still hesitating.. DH said he doesn't want it.. but I want it for him.. Roll

i think the sephora is a targeted deal. i didn't get it on the acct that actually HAS 250 points... booo. i'll try to get it in store but no idea if i'll be able to.

oh, i want the phone for myself. not that i don't already have a bajillion phones... i need another backup phone like i need another tote. laugh out loud i couldn't get the BOA deal... where did you find it? maybe i'm looking in the wrong place. is it $10 back on any order? gonna kick myself since i already ordered the shoes...

the phone - i want it specifically for the wifi-calling and as a backup since it works on my data plan. but in general... it is a low end phone. AMAZING deal for $130 with no contract... but still. that is something to keep in mind.

Yep, right now available for me on my BOA CC for Bank Ameri Deals.. I've found some really good ones there before.. right now I have Red Lobster, RedBox, HSN, and several others including the Body Shop on there... I got a really good deal when there was a 15% Kohls one there, and I made an online order with 20% off code and I got Kohls Cash on it too. Smilie

kurpee, I missed your quote. Thanks for the shorts info. I passed.



I've never heard of butter beans, so I guess it's a Bama thing.




What did you all order? I'm not finding much I want.

BTW, anyone know how the striped baseball tees run? http://www.express.com/clothing/s...5C/cat8013 I'm trying to decide between XS & S.

How about this jacket? http://www.express.com/clothing/i...4C/cat8004 How does it run? It looks like they have abundance of stock, which makes me think people didn't like it.
I like the jacket. I almost bought it before it was so cheap. I'm still going to watch it. It runs VERY small. I can't even fit into the 4. It's too tight on the sleeves. The 6 was fine for me. I'm on the fence about ordering. I've ordered so much recently that I can wait for this.

Thanks for the review. I normally wear a 4, which fits pretty snug in most of the jackets. Should I order 6 or 8?

My DH used to list on eBay on occasion. He just got an email saying he can list 400,000 free auction style listings. They must be getting desperate for sellers.

I fit into the 2 but it was tight on me. Forgot to mention it runs small. I'd prob go with 4. Sleeves were ok for me but I only barely clipped it closed.

The sleeves were super right on me. Go with at least a 6, I think, I could either wear a 6 or 8 in that jacket.

I should have mentioned that I'm usually a 2 or 4 in jackets. I could not raise my arms to drive in the 4 of this jacket.

If your DH logs into ebay and looks at his messages, they send messages at least once a month for 50,000+ free listings all the time.. the trick is reading the message before the promotion expires.. I just got the same email, it's a targeted offer, and I'll be listing things this weekend, since I had already used my 50 free listings..

What really, really gets me, is that certain bras that I sell, might have pilling, and they are used of course, but I sell them sometimes for a little more than what I paid... good pictures are the key, but still... why would someone want to buy my used bra, when they can buy a new one during the online SAS for less??

I felt so bad about a bra that sold last week for $24.xx that had snags on it, that I included a free panty and VS nail file set ($3 value).. person left immediate feedback, they were so happy..
The panty was free, and the nail file set I had purchased with something for $7, so $10 total and I'd used a SRC, so I'd only paid tax on it...

I'm currently selling my pregnancy bras, cacique brand.. I was HUGE right after I had the baby... I called them my lego boobs when it was too long between pumpings..

Also, I enjoyed reading this little article.. RDJ has such a genuine face.

Ugh, those vneck camis are not the ones I was thinking of! I like them still, but they're different. Not as soft. Stretchier. Tighter but xs still fits me, phew.
