Absolutely! That sounds like what the coupon is for - apologies. But not for people that just want a discount - just because. Really don't mean to sound accusatory, it just bugs me when people take advantage of things like this. Of course everybody wants a good deal-but shopping at a chain retail store is different. The price is the price. And the quality that you get for the price at J.Crew is really great!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-14192647621229552002008-08-06T23:30:00.000-04:002008-08-06T23:30:00.000-04:00Anon @ 8:30 p.m. & 9:24 : I got a dirty look t...Anon @ 8:30 p.m. & 9:24 : I got a dirty look tonight and I had so many problems with the upgrade. They lost 1 order, double shipped me on two orders, over charged me once, double charged me twice and took 4 weeks to refund me. <BR/><BR/>I asked for the coupon and got a dirty look!! <BR/><BR/>I dont feel I deserved the look and I feel that the company should make up this atrocity for me since they screwed up my credit card statement and bank acocunts for over a month! Please do remember that there are people who really were delt a bad hand during this upgrade and Jcrew should be thrilled that I am still shopping there after they kept over $600 for over a month!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07868959427565253691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-4450252199663145332008-08-06T22:23:00.000-04:002008-08-06T22:23:00.000-04:00most of the items you mention are huge one time pu...most of the items you mention are huge one time purchases. by the way most people on this talk i gather that they are constant shoppers at jcrew. someone posted earlier that they feel they should always get free shipping even on sale from the store, also that they should always be able to combine store discounts with student and teacher, etc... I just want to know why people feel that they deserve this? i dont know of any store who goes above and beyond like jcrew does. plus coupons always expire, they do at gap and other places so why shouldnt they at jcrew.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-75157411094960467952008-08-06T22:03:00.000-04:002008-08-06T22:03:00.000-04:00hmmm, then I guess when you buy a car, an applianc...hmmm, then I guess when you buy a car, an appliance, electronics, or any other item, you do not consider price or any special price/promotion or even advertisting that got you in the door?

I think that there are many customers who take advantage of companys' policies and it is unfair to people that adhear to them. It is also unfair to the people who work in the store. The reason that prices go up and policies are made stricter are because many people take advantage.

Jcrew does things to be nice and then people go and try to take advantage. of course you deserve dirty looks. people who work there have heard it all, the excuses that people give just to get a discount or a price adjustment are ridiculous! go to walmart if you want a deal. Jcrew's clothing is made well and thats y its a lot of money. just because half of you cannot afford it doesnt give you the right to complain!! go somewhere else! its clear that if the people who work there are rude when you call, that they are being rude for a reason! THey have better things to do than search for $9.99 flip flops and tshirts. and by erasing these comments furthers my point, bascially u cant handle being WRONG! also you cannot return something and then buy it back to get the lesser price thats wrong its called a price adjustment which cannot be done after 7 days!! i feel bad for the jcrew employeesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-4024941414486342652008-08-06T19:21:00.000-04:002008-08-06T19:21:00.000-04:00Math teacher: Thanks for the tip!

When I did bring my items to the counter, the staff member there first acted like she had no idea what I was talking about. Then, when I persisted, she said she had to ask her manager and it was only when she got back from talking to the manager that she took out the coupon. There is definitely a discrepancy between each staff member's knowledge of these coupons. The person who rang me up seemed to be under the impression that they were reserved for special/luxe customers. It's nice that this promotion is being offered, but I think it's a little ridiculous how people have to push to get them and it really isn't fair for people who cannot get out to a b&m. I did make two purchases that I love, but I could have done without the condescending looks. By the way, I purchased the Dream Tie cardigan and the skinny patent leather belt.I wish my store had more of the items I like in the catalog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-3782447865030962442008-08-05T20:58:00.000-04:002008-08-05T20:58:00.000-04:00Alisha: I have always said that they should give a...Alisha: I have always said that they should give a discount to all non-profit workers-- afterall a lot of us earn less than teachers do!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07868959427565253691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-87767092833826612732008-08-05T19:10:00.000-04:002008-08-05T19:10:00.000-04:00CAW/Blumre - CEU's for all MSW's (Though, I'd happ...CAW/Blumre - CEU's for all MSW's (Though, I'd happily forsake CEU's for a Social Workers' Discount!
