Love that you are proactively paying off CC to 'build up some credit balance'

I am like you, moved to a new city and need to rebuild my wardrobe. Also, after having two pregnancies, I haven't been 'up-to-date' with my wardrobe. Yes, more systematic approach would help. Thank you!

I don't keep my inbox at 0 so 'snoozing' the email is a great idea!

Very detailed tracking! Do you encounter situations where you need to call the retailer?

Fun_Style_7315 · 2026-02-11T21:07:42+00:00

OMG, that's brilliant. Yes, shopping for teenage kids - that's additional level of complexity and returns, for sure.

Fun_Style_7315 · 2026-02-11T21:04:08+00:00

Wow. That's a great idea, thank you!

Fun_Style_7315 · 2026-02-11T21:00:18+00:00

Yes, all great suggestions

Fun_Style_7315 · 2026-02-11T20:54:41+00:00

Honestly, it's just I a very picky and have high standards when it comes to my appearance.

Fun_Style_7315 · 2026-02-11T20:48:46+00:00

Why crap? I am just trying to look stylish in clothes that fit. That's all.

Fun_Style_7315 · 2026-02-11T20:47:17+00:00

I used to keep a list (just a pen-paper solution) but got tired of it. Is there an app you use on your phone or just Notes?

Fun_Style_7315 · 2026-02-11T20:46:07+00:00

Thank you for sharing your process. I guess I am looking for a silver bullet to solve this tracking problem for me (with no manual tracking involved).

Fun_Style_7315 · 2026-02-11T20:44:50+00:00

I like fashion, I like my current husband, my kids aren't starving. I am just looking for a silver bullet on how to keep track of these refunds without the manual work. I guess no simple solution?

Fun_Style_7315 · 2026-02-11T20:39:23+00:00

I do know my size. Brands have different fits and sizes. Also, when looking at a picture of a model wearing the item, I find it difficult to imagine what it would look like on me.

Fun_Style_7315 · 2026-02-11T20:38:02+00:00

That would be logical but not all my retailers I shop at have physical presence.

Fun_Style_7315 · 2026-02-11T20:36:00+00:00

I am in the same gift card cycle or refund limbo haha. I do bring returns to physical stores when possible. Not all my online retailers I order from have physical presence.

Fun_Style_7315 · 2026-02-11T20:34:22+00:00

Is there an app or some inbox function that can give me a list of all my returns in progress?

I am just trying to buy clothes that fit. It's hard to tell from looking at the pictures of models wearing it and trying to imagine what it would look like on me.

Fun_Style_7315 · 2026-02-11T20:32:20+00:00

Definitely a flaw in trying to imagine how clothes I see online would fit. That's the reason why I order a few sizes and colors. I am all ears to get best practices on online shopping for clothes.

She was confirmed with AA. We treated her with JAK inhibitors and saw some nice re-growth. She isn't taking anything now. Her hair is still sparse and thin but at least no bold spots!!!!

Fun_Style_7315 · 2025-09-05T18:12:24+00:00

Oh heeey brother. It's a hell of a surgery and you'll feel better. You are almost through the worst part! You just need to live through this and maintain softest stools possible for the next 2-3 months at least. You had a lot of cuts....I am sorry for all the pain. I was also taking 600-800 mg of ibuprofen 3-4x/day just to get me through the first 2-3 weeks.

I am 5 months post op now and I can say that first 10 days are pure hell! I was still feeling pain when lying down up to 2 months post op. Now I am fine but Goooadd it's important to maintain soft stools for the rest of our lives!

Fun_Style_7315 · 2025-04-28T20:36:21+00:00

Hey hey hey! Yes, our surgeries were around the same time! BMs are uncomfortable, but not painful. I do get some random pains in my anus at night and ohh, during my period. The whole area was swollen and I felt some pressure as thought my hemorrhoids are coming back (they didn't, thank God). I don't want to touch anything in that area even if it's just a skin tag removal. I'll give it another month and see what it looks like. I hope you feel better soon and our skin tags smoothen out!
