the CS that i'm talking to (Heidi) refuses to apply.

She says :I'm so sorry, but I'm not able to view any external links. I'd be happy to help you place an order, but I'm not able to apply any discount--so sorry!

Guess you got lucky with a nice rep.

I just chatted with her, she wouldn't let me use the code on Hilltop Blues, however since I told her I am staff at a college she took the 15% off my order after I gave her my order number. So anyone looking for a discount and you are staff or a student at college, let them know.

How heavy is this wood box? My shipment says it's 3 lbs. I'm wondering if the store is just sending me the cardboard.

wood box was in-store only i thought.

shoes + box + candy + reg box is pretty hefty, ship weight is prob 5+

I'm getting shipment from store. I guess I'll find out Tuesday.

Box with tons of butterscotch and shoes comes out to almost 7 pounds on my scale.

 

[buddhashark]

I'm hoping they shipped without the candy. I assume if they didn't ship the wood box they still have it at the store. Unless Alp slid through and copped just the box

She just asked for my full name and .edu email address, that was all.

Lol was thinking about it but these shoes are dope

https://www.jcrew.com/help/teacher_student_discount.jsp?sidecar=true

damn it, now I gotta return these and rebuy them.

 

[evoknvl]

LOL, I just opened the box and discovered just how much butterscotch candy they put in. Did you guys get this much candy as well?


 

Looks like the amount I got.

For those who have them in hand is the brown on the toe identical to the hilltop blues?

I'd say the HTB brown looks slightly lighter.  But it's not that much different.

 

[up your pujol]

Can anyone post a picture of Butterscotches and DBRs next to each other?

Victory brew last evening.

HB have crept into my heavy rotation - such a great shoe

Was thinking of buying the Butterscotch's as my first NB, but that retail price... €250. That's a LOT for retail.

They've been doing it for years and aren't too strict about it. Some employees only ask for a screenshot of school related email.

Congrats but don't let that keep you from using the discount. I graduated college ten years ago and still use my old student ID for larger purchases.

yea word, just use your id for that
Was gonna bring my pair to ac with me to save on tax and get that discount but I think it's a j crew factory store and not a regular one so I can't do it. Will still ask for an adjustment in nyc

 

[drisk34]

i just got an urge to order these butterscotch

 

[flux]

Ok, so in the US the Butterscotch's are 210 usd and in my country they are 251 eur which is about 280 usd.

Seriously???
