  1. I’ll start things off today. My vent: pricing games. Every time something I am interested in pops back and is available, it is excluded from the promo. We all know how to play these games so we wait!

    1. I have also received very used items! Pink cashmere sweater that was pilled and smelled like BO. 😂
      Boots that were ripped... few things!!!
      Lost packages in mail is another gripe
      Cancelations and then a pop back next day
      Jcrew is a lot of work, but I keep playing 🤣

      I did reorder the liberty romper today with my cancelled price and they added 20% cardlove which i applied it cart! $25 hope it ships
      I did order 3 cashmere sweaters( bad bad me, I have a shelf of them).
      2 sweaters were price adjustment form a lost package in early January
      1. Short-sleeve cashmere T-shirt in floral, Item AU202. Love it! Supper cute and good quality! Can’t wait to wear it! $26
      2. Cashmere crewneck sweater with bow stripes
      Item AT821. Took the Muslim charcoal color. Like it a lot! Took a small as I do usually in crewnecks, it’s little looser then their reg cashmere crew neck, but I like it. $26
      3. Cashmere crewneck sweater Item K1313 in HTHR LEMON. Waiting for it to ship! I love that color! I have another pale yellow form 2 yrs ago that I love! $34. Hope it ships!
      I posted before love the Cashmere boyfriend cardigan sweater with flower buds. AS274. It was pricey even on sale $65. But they have not come back at all.

    2. Great cashmere finds Kate! I can vouch for your statement on the boyfriend flower bud cardigan not popping back because I have been watching for it!

  3. Today should be a huge deal with JCrew finally shipping to Canada, but ..... it's not. Nice that they are offering 30% off many items, but the prices are way too stinking high. 1984 rugby shirt in indigo stripe
    Item AU871 is $173.50 CDN. Yes I can get 30% off that, but seriously way over priced. For that price I can buy a Polo Ralph Lauren one in a choice of regular fit or slim and it's far regular price is less than the JCrew one with the promo.

    I actually looked hard to find something to buy since it's been so long, but based on the current prices it'll be even longer before I buy from them.

    1. At $118US I'm not buying my hubs one either! That said it does look like a nice shirt.

    2. Yes, and after waiting soooo long for shipping to return to Canada, you would think they would have a better promotion than that. Most of the items I would like are not eligible and the others are upwards of 150-200 dollars with the 30% off applied. Thanks, but no thanks....

    3. I was so happy to see they’re back but agree that prices are too high. I guess 30% is something because we weren’t getting any promos for a long time. Shipping is still $14. I don’t see how this is a better experience for us as they kept saying.

  4. Any thoughts on Wool-cashmere poncho. Item AW423. Decent price... although seem thin... and not all cashmere? Has anyone seen it or own it? Thanks 😊

  5. Frustrated with the "vintage tee" that I bought (L2225). After washing, neck binding folds and twists and won't lay flat, looks TERRIBLE. Will have to go in my pajama drawer. I was folding laundry today and I noticed the cheap tees my teenage son has from Target look GREAT at the neck binding after tons of washes and dryer time ( and I never put my JC tees in the dryer, heaven forbid). This is a basic t shirt thing I would expect J Crew to get it right, *eye roll*.
