Unlock Your $15 Power Voucher: Victoria’s Secret, Pink, and Bath & Body Works Shoppers
“Attention Victoria’s Secret, Pink, and Bath & Body Works shoppers! Claim your $15 settlement voucher now! Limited time offer for eligible purchases.”
Last Updated on June 1, 2024 by Daily News Staff
Attention all Victoria’s Secret, Pink, and Bath & Body Works shoppers! We have some interesting news to share with you. If you made a purchase at any of these stores between May 10, 2021, and August 8, 2021, you may be eligible to receive a voucher for up to $15 off a single purchase at a future visit to any of these stores. How amazing is that?
Lynch Carpenter, LLP, a renowned law firm, has announced a proposed settlement with Bath & Body Works, LLC, and Victoria’s Secret Stores, LLC, regarding potential violations of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act during the relevant time period. While the defendants deny any wrongdoing, a settlement has been reached to provide relief for the affected customers and avoid the costs of a trial.
To be eligible for the settlement, you must have made a purchase at either Victoria’s Secret, Pink, or Bath & Body Works stores during the specified time period and received a printed receipt at the point of sale that displayed more than the last five digits of your credit or debit card number. If you paid with cash or a gift card, did not receive a receipt, received only an e-mailed receipt, or made an online purchase, unfortunately, you are not included in the settlement class.
The good news is that if you are indeed a settlement class member, you could receive a voucher worth up to $15 if you submit a valid claim form. And even if you made a purchase using My Bath & Body Works Rewards or a Victoria’s Secret branded credit or debit card and don’t submit a claim form, you will still receive a claimable voucher worth up to $5 automatically. More details about the vouchers can be found at www.FACTAClassActionSettlement.com. Just remember, the deadline to submit claim forms is July 16, 2024.
If you used your My Bath & Body Works Rewards Account or a Victoria’s Secret branded credit or debit card and take no action, you will receive a voucher as described above if the court approves the settlement. However, if you don’t file a valid claim form, you won’t receive a voucher. Keep in mind that by doing nothing, you waive your right to object to the settlement or participate in any other lawsuit against the defendants related to this case. But don’t worry, you still have options. You can choose to exclude yourself from the settlement or file an objection by July 1, 2024. The choice is yours.
Now, mark your calendars because the court will hold a Final Approval Hearing on October 24, 2024, to consider the approval of the settlement, as well as other important requests. This includes a request for attorneys’ fees up to $3,000,000 and $5,000 service awards to each of the named plaintiffs. If you have any objections, the court will take them into account during this hearing.

Explore the website to get all the details you need, and don’t miss out on this chance to receive a voucher for your future shopping spree at Victoria’s Secret, Pink, or Bath & Body Works!

What Professional Locksmiths Say Homeowners Get Wrong About Security
You have locks on your doors and windows, and you make sure they’re secure before you leave the house or head to bed each night. You may even have a security system with an alarm or cameras to protect your home. Some locksmiths say that may not be enough. Consider these small changes you can make to deter thieves from your home.

What Professional Locksmiths Say Homeowners Get Wrong About Security
(Family Features) You have locks on your doors and windows, and you make sure they’re secure before you leave the house or head to bed each night. You may even have a security system with an alarm or cameras to protect your home. Some locksmiths say that may not be enough. Bryan McCabe, director of locksmith operations with KeyMe Locksmiths, the nation’s leading provider of local locksmith services and No. 1 provider of key duplication kiosks, said homeowners should be mindful of common security vulnerabilities, many of which go unnoticed until it’s too late. A thief who wants to gain access to your home may do so by any means possible, including breaking windows or kicking in doors. However, those methods are loud and may attract attention. Instead, thieves will look to find the easiest house to enter. Consider these small changes you can make to deter thieves from your home.Close the Garage
Leaving your garage door open may seem harmless, but it can signal easy access to thieves. An open garage suggests relaxed security habits and can make burglars assume doors or windows might also be unlocked. Keeping it closed is a simple step that instantly makes your home more secure.
Make Your Home Look Lived-In
Burglars often target homes that appear empty. Dark houses – especially after nightfall – can stand out as easy opportunities. Leaving a light or two on helps create the impression someone is home. If you want to level up, use light timers or smart bulbs to automatically turn lights on and off, even when you’re away.
Keep Your Home Visible from the Street
Thieves prefer to work unnoticed. Overgrown trees, tall bushes, or dense landscaping near entrances can provide cover for someone trying to break in. Trimming greenery and maintaining clear sightlines from the street makes your home less appealing and more exposed – exactly what burglars want to avoid.
Upgrade Entry Points to Improve Security
Some relatively minor updates can make a big impact toward protecting your home. Start by assessing all home entry points, including secondary points like sliding doors, garage entries and basement doors. In addition to checking door frames, homeowners should examine strike plates, hinge security and whether existing locks are outdated.
Add Eyes to Your Front Door with a Doorbell Camera
Doorbell cameras are an affordable way to boost your home’s security. Visible cameras can stop many would-be thieves as they don’t want to be seen or recorded. Beyond deterrence, doorbell cameras let you see who’s at your door, receive alerts and check on your home anytime, whether you’re home or away.
Install Smart Locks for Control and Peace of Mind
Smart locks are another smart investment in home safety. They allow you to track who enters your home and when by assigning unique access codes. You can even lock (or unlock) the door remotely from your phone. With the ability to monitor, control and limit access, smart locks offer convenience and security. A local locksmith can help you choose the right option and handle installation, making the upgrade simple and stress-free.
Connecting customers with professional locksmiths in their area, KeyMe Locksmiths provides comprehensive home security and lockout services – from key replacement to lock installation or repair – with more than 7,500 kiosks nationwide. These self-service machines utilize advanced technology for fast, accurate and “one-stop-shop” key copying, including home and office keys, car keys and fobs, mailboxes, padlocks and RFID access cards.

Understanding Thread Counts
Last Updated on January 10, 2026 by Daily News Staff
Understanding Thread Counts
(Family Features) Many companies use thread count to make their sheets more appealing and luxurious, but a bigger number doesn’t always mean a good buy. Before you reach into your wallet, consider these truths about thread counts.
A thread count is a scientific term with strict federal standards on how the threads are counted. Simply put, it measures the number of threads woven together per square inch, counted lengthwise and widthwise. A 400-thread count sheet will have 200 threads lengthwise and 200 widthwise.
When a sheet has a count of 150, it is considered a muslin fabric, which isn’t all that soft to the touch. Any count of 180 or above is considered high quality, but anything beyond 400 is likely to only signify a higher price tag.
However, a sheet with a thread count of 200 can be softer to the touch than one with a 400 thread count. The quality of sheets depends not only on the thread count, but on the quality of fibers within those threads as well. Many stores and manufacturers tout Egyptian cotton as the best because of its long, strong fibers, which are more durable than most other cottons. Another high-quality cotton type is pima, also known for its extra-long fibers.
When shopping for new sheets, make sure you are looking at both the thread count and the quality. Look for a count between 200-400 and make sure the fabric quality is high to ensure you get the best bang for your buck, as well as a comfortable night’s sleep.
