Except their 'free gift' this year was exactly the same as last years without the Stila make up!! Feel so gypped. |

QUOTE(Gigi @ Jun 20 2009, 03:25 PM) ^ What was the free gift? I got the postcard in the mail for the first time so I have NO IDEA what the deals are. Last year there were blue Aritzia beach towels at Aritzia and neon yellow TNA towels at TNA, plus Stila eyeshadow and lip glaze and each of the locations. This year I got something at Aritzia and all I got was the neon TNA towel.. I haven't checked out TNA but I'm presuming that they're recycling the blue towel... I guess in their defense last year's gift was really good, as years prior they only had random ugly canvas bags with their logo on it... but I can't help but feel like they really cheaped out. The deals aren't great by the way, most of it is 20% off (Wilfred, Talula Babaton, MbyMJ, most of the jeans). I just got a strapless FCUK dress in purple for 20% off. |

20% off? Fenh. Blue beach towel sounds fine I guess, but the Stila e/s and lip glaze sounds way better! You'd think they could get some Stila overstock easily this year, considering how they went bankrupt and almost went out of business and they're always on sale at beautycrunch. *smh* Better than nothing I guess. I will have to stalk the aisles of Costco for cheap Stila!
Thanks for the info ;) |

@Gigi: Show them your postcard when you go inside and they'll give you another card with the list of what's on sale, and how much they're on sale for.
FREE GIFTS?! I didn't get a free gift.

^ They just give you another card of what's on sale? That's actually really lame. Plenty 30% pre-sale > Aritzia pre-sale. Which Aritzia did you go to? Maybe the gifts only apply to certain stores.

Yeah, I find it strange how they don't just tell you on the postcard right off the bat. I think it might be a trick to get you into the store.
I went to the one downtown. Come to think of it, I've never gotten a free gift after buying something during a presale. That's stupid. |

apparently, they send out two sets of postcards. if you get a post card from the first set you get a free gift. and if you get a post card from the second set, you don't get a free gift.
and, william rast skinnies for $195 from the pre-sale :D ! |

Ahh I see. Joanne, any idea what your postcard looked like? Although I'm likely one of the no-gift people because there's no way in hell I've spent more at Aritzia than you have.

The colour of the one I got is a pink-orange gradient, with the words "You are cordially invited to an EXCLUSIVE artizia event" on the front. |

Vancouver ladies - I got that postcard too, haha gonna go check it out tomorrow...
But oh, yeah so my R&R's ripped ! I'm so pissed. Like, right across the back of my leg under my bum...my friend said they might be able to do something if I bring 'em in, since they're only 6 months old... Is this true? I'll ask some more experts like Jenny haha cause I wouldn't know and I don't want to look like a fool if I do go in and ask... |

The bottom of my Chip&Peppers worn out and I can see my Citizens wearing out slightly too. It's suuuuch a bummer. I've never heard of people bringing the jeans back in though, I mean if you haven't worn them really often and they literally ripped cleanly, then you should try!

Did you buy them at Aritzia? If you did then you might have a case. I personally haven't had a pair of jeans rip on me yet, but when I did have a cardigan rip after a few weeks they were very nice about it and repaired it for free. And many years ago (about 6) I had a coat from there and its zipper fell off after a year and they still repaired it. Of course this may be because these were Aritzia house brands, but I think you should still give it a shot. Make sure you have a receipt and explain your case (that you haven't worn them very often, I presume?). No guarantees of course, but you never know if you don't ask! I wouldn't worry about seeming like a fool... just let them know that it's not what you would expect from a pair of jeans that you paid hundreds for at a store like Aritzia.
Let us know how it goes. :) |
