Victorias Secret ~ HEAR IT FIRST.. Deals from an associate

[starso]

I had a quick question, when you sign up for an Angels card, do you get anything off right away? Like most stores if you sign up and get approved you get 20% off, or do you just get discounts in forms of like coupons and stuff, just wondering if I should apply now or on black friday

Was it online by any chance? Because with online purchases, they send gift cards on random orders.

Yes, it was online and I received my order in 2 seperate shipments, because one bra was on backorder. Neither shipments had a gift card.

OK, you are so friggin awesome, that's all I can say!!!!

I have a question though... with all those online coupons you print out and bring them to the store, can you use more than one coupon per transaction? meaning like one of each? For example: if you bought those Secret Garden Selection products 8 for $35 could you use both the Free Beauty Rush Lipgloos wyb $15 beauty product AND the coupon for Free very sexy Dare mini perfume wyb $15 beauty product? Thanks so much!!! Reps for you!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, it is VERY MUCH appreciated!

To answer your question: You can use more than one coupon per day, but you can't use it in the same transaction. So you would have to make two separate purchases to redeem both coupons! The computer won't allow it to scan both coupons on one transaction, therefore if you wanted to use both coupons, you have to make two separate $15 purchases. On a side note, I had to correct some of my printable coupons, because they were valid in some stores, and not others. So the two coupons that are still valid are the body scrub coupon, and I just posted up a brand new one which is a free Dream Angels Body Lotion with any $15 purchase. So take advantage!

As a fellow VS associate are there ANY coupons we will be able to use???

No, unfortunately, Associates are not applicable for any coupons. The only offers you are allowed to use are the angels card offers (The coupons from the passbook of savings, and the other angel offers they send you in the mail), and if you do use one of those offers you are not allowed to use your discount. So you would have to calculate which would be better to use- an angel offer, or your employee discount. lol, I know it sucks, especially with the Secret Santa Gift Cards going around now!

Am I missing something? Will they take expired coupons? Thanks!

I REALLY do apologize for that-that was ENTIRELY my mistake. Acutally, our store still accepts expired coupons, for some odd reason. But I didn't realize that it was not valid in other stores. I went ahead and updated the coupon list, so nothing else should happen like that again. I'm sorry once again! And thanks for catching my mistake!

That was probably it! The online store claims to put gift cards in every random shipment, so basically if you were lucky enough, you got a gift card with your order. The Victoria's Secret Stores, and the Victoria's Secret Online Shop is run by two different companies, and by two different departments, and we don't associate with them, like they don't associate with us. (That is why they have a lot more promotions and deals that you do not find in stores). I think the rules for the online store is pretty unfair, but unfortunately we are not in charge of that. However at the stores, you are guaranteed to receive a gift card with you purchase of $10 or more. If you want to do that, I say BLACK FRIDAY is a PERFECT opportunity to get a gift card! I'm sorry you didn't receive one with your purchases :hectic1:

Today is the last day for those 50% off gift sets!

I bought those plain PJs that you have featured on the front page of this thread and they didn't ring up for $20, they rang up for reg. price. I wonder if only certain stores are participating in that deal. Either way, I'm going to return them tomorrow, I can order them for cheaper on the website. Also, I didn't recieve a secret santa card (I made another purchase along w/ the pj bottoms. When I go to retrun the pj's tomorrow, what are the chances that they will give me a SS card, do you think?

I was just at VS today with all those coupons and they allowed me to put all under one transaction and I only spent $15. No beeping of the register or anything. Im not saying everyone should try and do that if it is not the policy. But I even asked the girl if I could redeem all the Q's in one transaction and she went and asked the manager and said was told yes.:hectic1:

[kelly252]

Oh yay...Houston Pride! Haha, may I ask which store? Yes they HAVE TO, be scanned, and it should show up on your receipt as "PWP" for $0.00, when you know it has been scanned. If they don't scan it before they give it to you, it is not activated, therefore no value is added, and when you bring it back to redeem it, they are going to give you the default $10. If that happened to you, I suggest you take it back to the store, and let them know that the gift card did not show up on your receipt, and it did on your friend's receipt or something like that, and you were just wondering if it was activated it or not. They should be able to take the card back from you and scan it, and just ring it up as a regular item and give it back to you, just so you know you have value on it.

OMG your kidding me, I did not see the girl scan my card, now I have to go all the back there and have them fix it. There is no other way of doing it? Im in Houston and if anyone knows how the traffic in Houston is during the week on I-10, its just unbearable. I really didn't want to go to the mall on Black Friday or that entire weekend, Way too many people and traffic. When I was there today It took me 20 minutes to find a parking spot and it's not even Black Friday weekend yet. But I do want to have the chance to get a card with more than $10 on it. Do you think its worth it to drive back? what is the percentage that VS is giving in the $20 or higher range on the card?
