Living Social had a deal for scarves (http://scarves.com). The deal was $20 for $40. The current promotion is free shipping via super saver/Amazon if you place an order $50+ BUT it cannot be combined with the Living Social deal. However, deal of $40 can be put towards the shipping. The online checkout process is quite fast and simple. Nothing too complicated. They even allow you to purchase your items without creating an account which is nice if you do not plan on purchasing frequently from them or for security reasons. They also have a "sister" or in this case a "brother" account "ties.com". It is nice to see a clothing/accessory company catering to both men and women. You can buy from either store and the items will be added to a single cart versus two. Does it work with the deal? I am not sure. They offer a variety of materials including acrylic, blended, polyester, recycled, silk and viscose. You can sort by color, season and even for him!
**Heads up to anyone who lives near Garden Grove, gets off work early and/or has a day off during the workweek (M-F)** Call and ask the customer service representative if you can place your order via telephone and pick up at the warehouse. Unfortunately, I work 5 days a week and get off after they close. So sadly, I was unable to pick up my order. I had to fork over the cash instead *tear*. This might be a case to case situation, so I recommend calling and asking beforehand if you live or drive by the area. The representative that was assisting me, Jennifer, was quite nice and helpful in answering my questions. Oh and very polite as well.
One last thing...they also provide tutorial on how to tie long scarves. So if you want to try out a new style or technique you can visit their website, even if you do not buy anything.
I placed the order on 1/8, it was shipped on 1/9 and arrived 2/14. When my scarves arrived I was shocked to find them in a purple felt envelope/bag (~13" x 9"), super cute! I think that is a nice "personal" touch. I absolutely love it, it was a nice surprise. I wish I received one for each scarf but eh, one is better than none. The color of the scarves match perfectly with what was shown online. The quality and texture are nice as well. No pashmina scarves this time but overall I am really enjoying my scarves. read more
