At $4-$5 a pop, I'm not going to just suck it up and run around with saggy drawers. I want my money back! Here's the plan, I am going to exchange them for the ones that fit. I feel like I've done this before, but don't remember ever being told no. At the same time, I am totally fearful that they have something that detects if you tried them on or not, you know like the mythical chemical in chlorine pools that will turn red if you pee in it? What if the cashier says, "EW! You tried these on? NO! I WILL NOT RETURN THESE USED UNDERWEAR! WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS IS? GOODWILL?"
And what the hell is up with this "cheeky" bullcrap going on at Victoria's Secret? Sir Sunderland once brought home a pair of these "cheeky" underwear that some sales woman
This is what drove me to buying a Costco pack of Grandma undies awhile back. They might not be the most elegant thing, but god damn they fit and were comfortable. Except now I feel like a Grandma and don't find them appropriate for a 25 year old woman. Hence this entire debacle. They better take them back or I am taking this up with the Consumerist, and becoming an advocate of the opposition of the tyranny of underwear sales!

ick, i hate buying underwear. i recently have taken a liking to gap underwear. very comfortable and well made. they last a while. also - have you tried boy short underwear? they're kinda granny-ish but are way hip. i love them because they are SO comfortable. i have a couple pairs and need to get some more. good luck!
L.O.L.
I'm a former VS employee, and we had people return underwear ALL.THE.TIME.
(what I'm sayin' is...wash it before you wear it!)
Visiting from SITS--have a great day!
LOL. I am with you girl. It is a bit obnoxious. I fear that I am too emarrassed to bring them back - hence I end up with unused underwear. I am not a fan of cheeky underwear. Maybe when I weighed like 20 lbs less, but no longer.

There's no point in wasting money on uncomfortable underclothes. None. Good bras, good underwear, properly fitting socks. The fuondation of your wardrobe, really.
Take 'em back and find something comfortable that makes you feel how you want to feel!
This is all easy for me to say, so let me temper my underwear cheer by saying that I hate trying on bras - the gymnastics involved is exhausting. I shop for underthings as rarely as possible and therefore, prefer to invest a little money in something that will last.
And uhh.. stopping by from SITS!
