I'm frantically looking for the receipt for the H&amp;M blazer but cant find it anywhere, so I guess I'll have to exchange, which annoys me because I don't like anything in their current collection. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned/page/2#post-234451 Tue, 19 Oct 2010 00:03:37 +0000 Tanya 234451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another none I am doing SYC, so I haven't been shopping at all since August. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned/page/2#post-234450 Tue, 19 Oct 2010 00:01:03 +0000 anne 234450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>None! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned/page/2#post-234447 Mon, 18 Oct 2010 23:46:35 +0000 yublocka 234447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I returned the grey ezibuy tunic &amp; the black pocketed ezibuy dress last week via snail mail. The size 12 dress was too short/snug to wear comfortably to work. </p> <p>I had hoped to exchange for a size 14 dress to see how that worked, but I got an email today saying they are out of stock in size 14. A bit annoying because it's taken a whole week, and it was definitely in stock when I returned it. Oh well, I didn't *love* it, so I'm not too heartbroken. My wallet is also happy </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned/page/2#post-234395 Mon, 18 Oct 2010 22:24:08 +0000 catgirl 234395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've done all my returns (and even one I wasn't going to send back)... Now I'm waiting for more stuff to arrive so I can turn around and return more. I hate all the boxes and waste involved, but I have no other shopping options! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned/page/2#post-234364 Mon, 18 Oct 2010 21:31:17 +0000 April 234364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I see that a lot of returning is going on! Nice work. Anybody need additional encouragement? </p> <p>Just think how good it will feel to see those minuses on your credit card statement... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned/page/2#post-234116 Mon, 18 Oct 2010 13:44:08 +0000 Veronica 234116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a pair of boots to return to Amazon.com and am still deciding on a cardigan. Not too bad, I usually have more things in the queue. When I decide it is going back I will put it in the trunk of my car so I remember to return it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned/page/2#post-234115 Mon, 18 Oct 2010 13:41:28 +0000 merry77 234115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I made $470 worth of returns on Saturday - 2 puffer coats and a wool coat were the bulk of that, plus a few other button downs that don't fit, 2 sweater, a dress and 2 pairs of pants. All of them were internet orders that didn't work out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned/page/2#post-233953 Mon, 18 Oct 2010 02:00:51 +0000 MNsara 233953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Too bad you didn't ask yesterday! I just spent this entire afternoon returning - things that looked so wonderful in July and August -- from NAS: scarf, cardi, bracelet set, silk tunic (yes the beloved one, but I didn't like the high side cut on the petite, so they've tracked down a regular for me),</p> <p>Macy's flats, necklace, and dress are riding around in my car for this week.</p> <p>And I have separated another silk top, cardi, and scarf to be returned if the sky doesn't fall in after this current batch of returns.</p> <p>I was feeling it was too much effort to dress in new ways that I don't seem to be loving myself in (or I would have already put these items into use, right?) Plus, I felt I needed to keep it simpler in my closet. The options seemed overwhelming, and lots of the combinations weren't always wonderful. . . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned/page/2#post-233858 Mon, 18 Oct 2010 00:09:57 +0000 Anonymous 233858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok...

I rarely return items I buy, usually only if they are defective.<br /> I am about as certain as I can be when I purchase something....not saying I don't make the occasional trip to return, but it is rare. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned#post-233793 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 22:13:35 +0000 elpgal 233793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Way too many! I have things that need to go back to Nordstroms, Endless, Ann Taylor and Old Navy.</p> <p>I spent the afternoon sorting out what needs to be returned but there are quite a few I need to make up my mind about. The most troublesome are two coats - I like the shape but am being picky about the weight. After wearing fleece for years, actual wool coats are just too heavy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned#post-233786 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 22:02:34 +0000 Mo 233786@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am not looking to return any but have 2 items I *could* return if needed. One being the zipper ballet flats I'm trying desperately to break in in the house (but I've worn them out on pavement so that point may now be moot) and the other being the 3/4 sleeve black flyaway cardigan I just bought when I found the long sought brown cardi. I am not much of a returner in general but did return 2 different cardis over the last 2 months. I usually stake out an item and go visit it 2 or 3 times before it comes home if it's not love at first sight. I have done this 'visiting' for as long as I can remember and sometimes it's lead to losing out on something I wish I'd gotten, but more often than not, I debate the purchase and eventually keep it if I decide to buy it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned#post-233779 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 21:56:14 +0000 Steph 233779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have five things: four pairs of shoes (two to Zappos, two to Yoox) and a dress. They are sitting in the middle of my living room for awhile, so this challenge is good for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned#post-233774 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 21:45:42 +0000 NK 233774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a pearl ring I ordered from QVC that I have to get mailed back this week and 3 place settings of Fiestaware in my car to get exchanged at Macy's. </p> <p>I'll probably be returning a shirt I recently bought from Kohl's for my husband. It looked so nice before I washed it, I hardly recognized it afterward. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned#post-233759 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 20:39:12 +0000 Elly 233759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Two---</p> <p>the winter "gear" coat I posted on, I decided it was two tight in the chest</p> <p>my replacement sweatshirt --- it is too tight around the hips and rides up funny</p> <p>I will return them this week, along with maybe 8 shirts that were ordered for my mother and she accidentally left here </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned#post-233749 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 20:17:18 +0000 biscuitsmom 233749@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>lol, April! I did mine, and *actually* left without buying a thing!

A certain YLF member has some shoes in multiple sizes awaiting to try on and then what doesn't fit will go right back.</p> <p>I've gotten much better at returning store items than I used to be. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned#post-233735 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 19:33:33 +0000 April 233735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So everyone -- including Kari -- consider yourselves challenged! Make those returns. I'm cracking the whip since I went out and did both of mine already, so I can hound others with impunity... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned#post-233722 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 18:43:37 +0000 Isabel 233722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is very funny and the timing is great ! Let's say ALOT and there is more to come - I ordered four pairs of pants for my son in the wrong size. So all of the returns I have are clothes for my children and a couple of plastic kitchen containers that were too small.</p> <p>Scarlet - you are leading the scientific community as a role model for fabulousness - a gazillion points to you !!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned#post-233702 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 17:18:24 +0000 Scarlet 233702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zero.

I need some points for something. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned#post-233701 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 17:18:21 +0000 Maya 233701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nordstrom: Halogen OTK boots and Miz Mooz oxfords<br /> Endless: Miz Mooz Kailia boots, possibly Nicole Kindles in a size 7. I ordered the 6.5 to compare from Piperlime.<br /> H&amp;M: Blazer that is a lot shinier than I'm comfortable with. I lost the receipt though :(<br /> Macy's: May be returning the Hue leggings I got if the Gap ones I ordered are superior (in all likelihood, they are). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned#post-233688 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 16:54:22 +0000 Lisa 233688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zappos-Joe's jeans, I thought they were jeans, but the stretch makes them like leggings, not what I wanted and I have two sizes of them.</p> <p>Zappos-Booties, 3 pairs, two different styles, the one I liked had a mark on it, so I asked for a new pair to be sent. But now I purchased new footwear at the YLF meet up so all 3 need to go back. </p> <p>Express-Cardigan, which I love, but is 100% wool, and that's too high a wool count for me. I need wool in a blend to wear it. </p> <p>Nordstrom-Cords, I have a pair of bootcut cords, but recently purchased a skinny version at Gap. I don't need two pairs of cords.</p> <p>Looks like I should get to the stores! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-many-things-are-in-your-house-right-now-waiting-to-be-returned#post-233682 Sun, 17 Oct 2010 16:36:01 +0000 marianna 233682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nothing here. I always return things ASAP because I like to get my refund ASAP. </p>
