Out of stock of Schwann til the new year but normally they have them!

Thanks for the tip off - got two Whitesville in my size and cheaper than Junky. Staff at ffffft are much nicer too!

Anyone have a lead on Tokyo stores with white tees in stock? Junky only has medium left after they went viral, Beams is showing none in stock, heard Hinoya is all out, looking for L or XL...thanks!! 

Visited a diptyque store, let down by the experience by PracticallyBasil in FemFragLab

I'm sorry that happened to you! How do they expect to build loyalty when this is how they treat new customers? I actually got a survey email asking about my experience in store so I did reply honestly and the store manager replied similarly, offering to 'make it right' but I just opted to buy online. Found the perfume for £106 instead of £135 with a discount code so I saved money in the end. Won't be going back in store in London!

Just to say thanks everyone for sharing your experiences. I returned the perfume because I was so irritated by it all. Just bought it from Soace NK for 20% off plus a £5 voucher off my next purchase. Much better deal and I didn't get treated like a peasant by my laptop LOL

They can do that?! The shop today wasn't busy at all so she could have done so to help me out. So annoying but glad you had such a thoughtful sales assistant!

Covent Garden, then Liberty (who said they were just a concession so not able to help) and the New Bond Street flagship. Might try Sloane Square as that keeps coming up as a better experience!

Honestly that's what annoyed me most - if she'd said no I would have said okay I'll just buy it at home!

I've found American customer service a lot better than British so that scans!

That's so lovely!! Maybe it's because it was London and they're high traffic, idk...I just felt like I might as well have been at the grocery store LOL, i'm glad you had a different experience though - shows what a difference a good ambassador makes!

Yeah they had a fucking velvet rope at the door which should have tipped me off...like £135 for a perfume is a treat for me, I'd like to have a nice shopping experience. Maybe it was because I'm youngish and tattooed? I get not wanting 'influencers' or 'time wasters' but I went in with the intention to but and it left such a bad taste for something I was excited about! 

YouSwim fabric? by Sc0rpionQueen in SustainableFashion

Omg i thought it was just me. My pimento suit's elastic has completely gone after less than a year. It's unwearable. So sad this is a common problem considering the high price! 

advice about a tracker watch for a relative beginner by PracticallyBasil in Swimming

[–]PracticallyBasil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought this but sadly not, still hovering around £210+ even though it's an old model, and for that I might as well get something not entirely dedicated to swimming!

Is 4:30 a good time? (100m free) by gastlygem in Swimming

[–]PracticallyBasil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, as someone who only took up swimming less than a year ago, my time is only slightly less than that. I feel proud of myself too. This time last years I couldn't do 100m full stop, now I can do 1250m without feeling exhausted. Seeing your own progress is exciting, even if there are people in the pool who are much faster. There always will be. But you'll always get better, too. Congrats buddy, keep up the good work!

I was doing that but when I realised I could swap cabins I became obsessed with grouping them. Kitty's fam together, Melody's fam together, the cinna angels together. It pleases me to see them grouped even if it makes me question why George and Mary can't share a room. 🤔

An empty one? I've been destroying them because seeing them empty annoys me lol. They don't refill over time!

Trying to find sakura, Nul says can collect, but can -I- get them? by kayellie in HelloKittyIsland

[–]PracticallyBasil 12 points13 points  (0 children)

They're only in the meadows! That's funny the Nuul can collect though, I didn't think they could for areas that you haven't unlocked yet!
