There are more, but I'm going to say JCrew. They're always like, SPECIAL OFFER! Get $5 off your next purchase of $175 or more! Don't say we never gave ya anything!

Of course, they could give us no discount at all, but throw me a bone!

ITA! They are so stingy with their discounts. Although recently they did have a 20% off a $175 purchase, but I still had to pay their freakin ridiculous shipping prices. How on earth could it cost $18 to ship something? cry

I wish they had cheaper shipping, and more coupon codes. I haven't been that impressed with their clothing lately; it doesn't seem as cute as last year.

I'm going to have to say J. Crew too. For my last order the best coupon I could find was $4.95 for shipping. They don't even have a friends and family discount, do they?

As much as I absolutely love this store, Anthropologie. They never, ever have any type of coupons, and their shipping is outrageous! Their clothes are so expensive you would think they could give at least their loyal customers a deal every now and then.

They just introduced the "Anthro Card" but the only benefit I've seen so far is free shipping online until the end of this year. That's a joke - it should be all the time if you have the card!

I agree w/ sc33 - Anthro is stingy! I also am slightly annoyed w/ Piperlime. I never, ever get any codes from them.

I agree with Anthro and J. Crew online. I've always found the sales to be decent at the B&M stores, though.

I agree that J. Crew doesn't give great promotional sales, but when items go into their final sale, I think they are heavily discounted. But, I'm a J. Crew freak, so $20 off is enough to push me to buy, buy, buy!
