  2. I am loving M&O these days. I bought a pair of the riding boots - love them! Bootcut jeans - great as well and I have ordered tanks and tee's for great prices. All basics but for the price I couldn't pass them up. Oh and the free shipping and returns to Canada no loss is awesome!

  3. Banana is offering a 20% in store discount on all sale items PLUS 25% off your total purchase. It may be only through the weekend but its worth a call. I bought a sweater for $11 !

  5. M+O stuff is great quality, possibly better than that of J. Crew. I bought a v-neck cashmere sweater for <$30, when they were having additional 20% off sale items + 30% off code AND free shipping/returns! I will be sad when their free shipping policy ends Dec 31st of this year.

  6. From what I've been trying to piece together, it appears that the code on the GAP coupon is only good for one person. So whoever uses that code in-stores can use it for the 4 days, but only the 1st person holding the certificate. The code is the same for online use, but can only be used one time.

    I have seen 2 more of these and the code is different on each of the 3 I've seen. I could be totally wrong. And if I am, hopefully if people take it in and it doesn't work the store will honor it anyway.

    I emailed GAP to ask if I can be put on the list and was told no. I blogged about it today.

  8. Does anyone know how Martin and Osa clothing fits? Do they run large, small, or TTS? I've never ordered from there before.

  9. gigfocia, you are right. This Gap FAF is a unique individual code good for ONE person only. I would hate for someone to be disappointed if they tried to use it and someone else had already.

  10. Matrin and Osa fits tts compared to the JCrew fit in the tops. I find the pants are more generous. I wear a 28 or a 4 with Jcrew but with M&O jeans are 27 but other pants are 4. Hope this helps, L.

  11. Hi Everyone! I hope the following clears up any confusion: the Gap 4-day printable coupon can be used multiple times by anyone. In the fine print of the email it reads: "The barcode from this email can be used in our stores as often as you like during the 4-day event"

    It is just the online code that can only be applied once (which is why I didn't even bother to mention that code). Happy Shopping! :)

  12. Gap has started distributing FAF coupons to some of its credit card customers. I have a Gap Silver and received one today.

    The bar code that you use in the store is identical to the on-line code that is good for one-time use so Gap can track which organization gets a portion of your sale. The whole purpose of the promotion is too share the code with anyone you want, so I don't think you have anything to worry if you print out coupon and bring it into a store.

    I think Gap works harder than J.Crew to prevent its merchadise reaching resellers by limiting on-line sales like this coupon does. J.Crew apparently is willing to live with resellers so long as sales are final. ;)

  13. Hi everyone,

    Just wondering if you can pass on some insight:

    I normally wear J.Crew Petite 0 bottoms - would this be equivalent to a 25 or 26 (jeans) at M+O? (I actually ordered a 27...but if according to Anonymous at 9:07am, a Sz 4 J.Crew = 27, maybe not?)

    Thanks so much for your help!

  15. I just talked with Sephora CS person, and he told me that the 20% promotion is extended until tomorrow 11:59pm PS :)

  16. Just a little tid-bit of insightful knowledge. As of today, at least in stores, M+O had an additional 25% off all sale items PLUS 30% off all shoes, sweaters, and denim!!!! Crazy deals!
