from the Victoria’s Secret Store at the Flagstaff Mall.
According to police, about $15,000 worth of underwear from Victoria’s Secret was taken Saturday without tipping off employees.
Those responsible were able to haul about 350 bras out the main entrance during business hours.
How do you walk out the door with 350 bras, without anybody noticing, or without the anti-theft tags triggering the alarm? Pretty tricksy.
I think they need to set a booby-trap, to catch the culprit.

Those things cost $43 bucks each?
Argh. No wonder my Amex bill is off the charts again.

I used to wear those expensive VS bras. I realized awhile back they were so uncomfortable, I couldn’t wait to get out of them. Now I order from Jockey.com. at less than 1/2 the price. I think I look better without all that push up stuff. The gents might think differently but they don’t have to wear the things.
Bra Bandit — you can keep ’em.

My mom, is a simple woman, and my father is an even more simple man (though he’s actually quite bright, he just never thought of anything but himself, sorry dad, it’s true)
Anyways, my brother got married to a woman who isn’t simple (though, sorry sis, my bro is “smarter,” but not by much, and it’s not a family thing)
Anyways, (again) I have a rather strong sense of my own abilities, but I know what they are. I remember stuff, I know what I was taught, and sometimes I can put them together, but in general, I’m not one of those savantic ultra-focused geniui (I don’t like saying genius’s, I prefer, treating them as fungus, so the multiple is “fungi”)
and there are a lot of people I can count as equals, but I have only met a small handful (actually 4) people that I would say were “smarter.” And without a doubt the man who I most associate with brilliance is my uncle (not related) John.
Seems like a long lead in for bra’s right?
Here is one thing that those I count as brilliant, those I count as equals, and those I count as less have in common.
We quiver with guilt whenever we are in the womens section of any store, and if we even walk into Victoria’s Secret knowing we are gonna be paying for it, we are complete wussbags.
One time I had to go out with my brother to pick up the birthday gifts for his wife. My brother knew about what it would cost, but as he walked in, had to be held by the hand (figuratively, almost literaly) by the salesgirl, in order to pick out the things his wife wanted (not smutty lingerie or anything, VS is a much bigger business than that) You could see my brother diminish a little bit in masculinity as he walked through the store, and Me the single guy, would only have been an offensive prick if I made jokes, so I shrank even further.
Paying for the clothing (it was actual clothing) my brother, you could see, that he didn’t care what it cost, he just wanted to go into the warm embrace of sports television, and his wife telling him how great a husband he was, meanwhile I was a wimpering dog, nipping at the heals of anyone willing to kick me in the face.
ND, don’t bother asking your husband, he will lie.

I have a bra like that Cathy and for some reason I never remember to throw it away. It’s got this little piece of plastic that digs in my back all day. It’s never enough to make me exchange bras during the day, but just enough to annoy me. I finally threw it away the other day.

Instead of throwing them away, you could just cut the tag off. And if you need the tag for washing instructions, just put a piece of scotch tape on it and write what you cut it off from (with a fine sharpie on the spanish side) and put it in the junk drawer in the kitchen for future reference.

Forged — sometimes when I try to cut the tag off, the edges of the little nib left are more irritating than the entire tag, or I end up having to break open the seams to pull it out. I might even end up ripping the garment by mistake. It is very annoying. I think that is why some companies are now printing everything on the inside of the garment and promoting a “no tags” feature.
I figure if we gals get rid of most stuff that gets us cranky — we are doing humanity (that includes men) a favor.
I don’t pay attention to washing instructions anyway. Most my stuff is washable, and I can usually figure out whether it needs to be in cold water just by looking at it.
Dave — if you’re lookin’ for something to irritate women, I could make you a list… and the word “feel” will be included.
