| - I've been carrying around gift card money at Victoria's Secret (aka Vicky's Secret as my Aunt Marcy calls it) for awhile now. So, on the last day of 2009, I decided to go spend some of that money and buy something sexy to wear for NYE!
Unfortunately, the employees were not helpful at all and the store was a zoo... filled with shoppers because of their sale. I hunted through and found a few things but didn't have the patience to try stuff on, so I picked out five cute bottoms that were on the 5 for $25 table, a cute night shirt and boy short bottoms, and a couple of other things. I waited in line and the lady who rang me up tried to sell me on their Angel card. No thanks I said.
"Are you sure?" She asked and proceeded to tell me all about the wonderful benefits of the Angel Card.
"Not today, thanks" was my reply.
Then she told me one of the bottoms I chose was on sale and no longer part of the 5 for $25 deal. So I went to choose another pair. When she told me the same thing about another pair, I'd had enough. I didn't need eight new pairs of underwear... at that point I was annoyed and chose only a few of the original ones I liked. I couldn't wait to get the hell out of there.
Sure, VS is an alright store, but they need to work on their customer service at this location. They do sell cute stuff but I'm not so sure about the quality. I'd much rather prefer shopping at a lingerie boutique but VS is more affordable than most cute higher quality boutiques so I'm sure I'll be back to spend the rest of my gift card money another time soon. I'll hopefully pick a time to go next time that is not as crazy crowded and perhaps maybe even find a different location where the sales people are pleasant to deal with... I'm sure I could find a push-up bra, t-shirt bra, magic this, or special that... I know they sell something for women of all shapes and sizes. :)
Oh, and if you're wondering, I did wear my purchase on NYE and it worked like a charm - for that, I'm bumping up their two stars to three. Happy new year, Vicky!
