I haven’t been to The Limited in forever and a day!  I keep getting their emails about sales but nothing caught my eye to drive all the way to the mall.  Plus, the last time I looked around, it didn’t seem to have the same quality as they did a few years back.  Boy, was I wrong!!  I got an email from them stating that they were having a sale and if you bought a jacket, pant, dress, or skirt you get the second (lesser or equal value) for free!  (They also have a sale for buy a top and get the second 1/2 off.) Well, I need a new suit and this sounded like a steal.  So, I grabbed my coworker, Linda, and we headed to the mall at lunch.  I tried on a few items and nothing worked but before I gave up I found a cute dress.  Tried it on and it fit.  I grabbed a tweed skirt and voila, I have my free item.  After much time debating with myself (insert dirty joke here) I also bought a black/grey suit (see all pics below) and paid for the jacket and got the pants FREE!!   Four pieces, normally $400, for $250!  AND! They gave me $25 off coupons when you spend $50 to use next week, and I got 4 coupons!  I can grab another suit and get $100 off!  (Sorry, honey!)

So, here’s where The Limited really made it amazing to shop there.  I wore the dress the very next day to business meetings in Dallas.  I put it on and it looked good.  But, as the day got started, I kept feeling that the dress was a bit big.  I mean, I did have to put a cami underneath it to hide my bra.  When lunch time came I made a few calls to the local Limited stores.  The first store at North Park Mall was super helpful.  Ricky, the manager, said I could come in and exchange the dress I was wearing but they didn’t have the size I was looking for.  Then, I called The Limited at the Galleria and spoke to a manager, Natalie.  I told her my dilemma and she was on it.  She found my size and said come on in!  I said, “My name is Rebecca, I have red hair, and I’m wearing the dress I’m about to exchange.”  Confession time or what?!

When I got to the Galleria, I stopped in the bathroom first before going to the store.  I had one last glance at the dress and there are deodorant stains.  Not bad, but now I’m a bit embarrassed.  F*** it!!  I’m a customer, Natalie already said okay, and when are there NOT deodorant stains on a shirt or dress you try on in the store?

I found Natalie, showed her the stains, and she said that was fine!  I tried on the smaller size and it fit sooo much better (and now minus deodorant stains).  Natalie fixed me up and I was on my way.  What amazing customer service!!!

So, now all I have to do is return the suit I bought because I already have a jacket just like it!  Maybe I’ll go blue!  Maybe brown!

The sale ends either Saturday or Sunday so ladies get on it if you’re looking for a new piece.
