| Description of Business and Basis of Presentation | 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation Description of Business Limited Brands, Inc. (the Company) operates in the highly competitive specialty retail business. The Company is a specialty retailer of women's intimate and other apparel, beauty and personal care products and accessories. The Company sells its merchandise through specialty retail stores in the United States and Canada, which are primarily mall-based, and through its websites, catalogue and other channels. The Company currently operates the following retail brands:
Fiscal Year The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest to January 31. As used herein, "third quarter of 2010" and "third quarter of 2009" refer to the thirteen week periods ending October 30, 2010 and October 31, 2009, respectively. "Year-to-date 2010" and "year-to-date 2009" refer to the thirty-nine week periods ending October 30, 2010 and October 31, 2009, respectively. Basis of Consolidation The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company accounts for investments in unconsolidated entities where it exercises significant influence, but does not have control, using the equity method. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company recognizes its share of the investee net income or loss. Losses are only recognized to the extent the Company has positive carrying value related to the investee. Carrying values are only reduced below zero if the Company has an obligation to provide funding to the investee. The Company's share of net income or loss of unconsolidated entities from which the Company purchases merchandise or merchandise components is included in Cost of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company's share of net income or loss of all other unconsolidated entities is included in Other Income (Loss) on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company's equity investments are required to be tested for impairment when it is determined there may be an other than temporary loss in value. Express Through May 12, 2010, the Company had a 25% ownership interest in Express and accounted for this investment under the equity method of accounting. On May 13, 2010, Express completed an initial public offering ("IPO"). Additionally, the Company sold a portion of its shares of common stock in Express in conjunction with the IPO. As a result, the Company's ownership interest was diluted from 25% to 18%. The Company eliminated in consolidation 25% of merchandise sourcing sales to Express through May 12, 2010 and eliminated 18% from May 13, 2010 through the end of the second quarter of 2010. Based on the Company's reduced ownership in Express, the resulting loss of contractual rights and the resignation of the Company's seats on Express' Board of Directors in August 2010, the Company concluded that it was no longer appropriate to account for its investment in Express using the equity method of accounting. At the beginning of the third quarter of 2010, the Company commenced accounting for its investment in Express using the cost method of accounting. As a result of the accounting change, the Company no longer records equity income (loss) from Express in Other Income (Loss) on the Consolidated Statement of Income and the Company also began recognizing 100% of merchandise sourcing sales to Express. The Company believes the cost method of accounting, rather than the available for sale method, is appropriate because the Company's shares of Express' common stock are not registered and are subject to certain market and contractual restrictions.
Limited Stores Through June 9, 2010, the Company had a 25% ownership interest in Limited Stores. The Company accounted for this investment under the equity method of accounting and eliminated in consolidation 25% of merchandise sourcing sales to Limited Stores equal to the Company's ownership percentage. On June 10, 2010, the Company divested its remaining 25% ownership percentage in Limited Stores and resigned its seats on Limited Stores' Board of Directors. Beginning June 10, 2010, the Company no longer records equity income (loss) from Limited Stores and also began recognizing 100% of merchandise sourcing sales to Limited Stores. Interim Financial Statements The Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the quarter and year-to-date periods ended October 30, 2010 and October 31, 2009 are unaudited and are presented pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). These Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto contained in the Company's 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. Seasonality of Business Due to seasonal variations in the retail industry, the results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year. Concentration of Credit Risk The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various major financial institutions. Currently, the Company's investment portfolio is comprised of U.S. and Canadian government obligations, U.S. Treasury and AAA-rated money market funds, bank time deposits and highly rated commercial paper. The Company monitors the relative credit standing of financial institutions and other entities with whom the Company transacts and limits the amount of credit exposure with any one entity. The Company also monitors the creditworthiness of entities to which the Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business and counterparties to derivative instruments. |

| Earnings Per Share and Shareholders' Equity | 3. Earnings Per Share and Shareholders' Equity Earnings Per Share Earnings per basic share are computed based on the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares. Earnings per diluted share include the weighted-average effect of dilutive options and restricted stock on the weighted-average shares outstanding.
The following table provides shares utilized for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for third quarter and year-to-date 2010 and 2009:
Shareholders' Equity In January 2010, the Company retired 201 million shares of its Treasury Stock. The retirement resulted in a reduction of $4.641 billion in Treasury Stock, $101 million in the par value of Common Stock, $1.545 billion in Paid-in Capital and $2.995 billion in Retained Earnings. Beginning in 2010, the Company adopted a policy of issuing new shares to satisfy award exercises or conversions. In March 2010, the Company's Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $1 per share. The special dividend, totaling $325 million, was distributed on April 19, 2010 to shareholders of record at the close of business on April 5, 2010. In accordance with the anti-dilutive provisions of the 1993 Stock Option and Performance Incentive Plan ("Stock Plan"), the Company adjusted both the exercise price and the number of share-based awards outstanding as of the record date of the special dividend. The aggregate fair value, the aggregate intrinsic value and the ratio of the exercise price to the market price were approximately equal immediately before and after the adjustment, therefore, no compensation expense was recognized. In March 2010, the Company's Board of Directors also approved a share repurchase program of $200 million and cancelled its previous $250 million share repurchase program, which had $31 million remaining. Through the third quarter of 2010, the Company repurchased 6 million shares of common stock for $147 million under the program. In November 2010, the Company's Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $3 per share. The special dividend, estimated to total $970 million, will be distributed on December 21, 2010 to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 7, 2010. Consistent with the March 2010 dividend, the Company will adjust both the exercise price and number of share-based awards outstanding as of the record date. In November 2010, the Company's Board of Directors also authorized a new share repurchase program of $200 million which includes $53 million remaining under the March 2010 $200 million share repurchase program. Through November 26, 2010, the Company repurchased 287 thousand shares of common stock for $10 million under the new program. |

| Equity Investments and Other | 7. Equity Investments and Other Express In July 2007, the Company completed the divestiture of 75% of its ownership interest in Express. In conjunction with the transaction, the Company and Express entered into transition services agreements whereby the Company provided support to Express in various operational areas including logistics, technology and merchandise sourcing. The terms of these transition services arrangements varied and ranged from three months to three years. In October 2009, the Company entered into new agreements with Express whereby the Company will continue to provide logistics services and lease office space. The Company also continues to provide merchandise sourcing services to Express. The Company recognized merchandise sourcing revenue from Express of $122 million and $107 million in the third quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company recognized merchandise sourcing revenue from Express of $267 million and $260 million for year-to-date 2010 and 2009, respectively. These amounts are net of the elimination of merchandise sourcing revenue equal to the Company's ownership percentage through the second quarter of 2010. The Company's accounts receivable from Express for merchandise sourcing and other services provided totaled $100 million as of October 30, 2010, $80 million as of January 30, 2010 and $116 million as of October 31, 2009. In March 2010, Express completed a cash distribution to its owners and the Company received $57 million. The Company's portion representing a return on capital is $8 million and is included in Other Assets and Liabilities within the Operating Activities section of the 2010 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The remaining portion representing a return of capital is $49 million and is included in Return of Capital from Express within the Investing Activities section of the 2010 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The proceeds received from the cash distribution were in excess of the Company's carrying value of the investment in Express. As a result, the carrying value was reduced to zero as of the date of the cash distribution and a pre-tax gain of approximately $49 million was recorded. The pre-tax gain is included in Other Income (Loss) on the year-to-date 2010 Consolidated Statement of Income. On May 13, 2010, Express completed an IPO and the Company sold 1.3 million shares of its common stock in Express. As a result, the Company's ownership interest was diluted from 25% to 18% and the carrying value of the Company's remaining investment was increased to reflect the proportional impact of the IPO. As a result of these events, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $52 million, which is included in Other Income (Loss) on the year-to-date 2010 Consolidated Statement of Income. Based on the Company's reduced ownership in Express, the resulting loss of contractual rights and the resignation of the Company's seats on Express' Board of Directors in August 2010, the Company concluded that it was no longer appropriate to account for its investment in Express using the equity method of accounting. At the beginning of the third quarter of 2010, the Company commenced accounting for its investment in Express using the cost method of accounting. As a result of the accounting change, the Company no longer records equity income (loss) from Express in Other Income (Loss) on the Consolidated Statement of Income and the Company also began recognizing 100% of merchandise sourcing sales to Express. The Company believes the cost method of accounting, rather than the available for sale method, is appropriate because the Company's shares of Express' common stock are not registered and are subject to certain market and contractual restrictions. The Company's investment carrying value under the equity method of accounting for Express was $5 million as of January 30, 2010 and October 31, 2009. The Company's investment carrying value under the cost method of accounting is $37 million as of October 30, 2010. These amounts are included in Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The value of the Company's investment in Express based on the closing price of Express' common stock on October 29, 2010 was $223 million. However, this value may not be indicative of the amount the Company would realize in the ultimate disposition of its shares because the timing and amount of any future sales of the Company's shares are subject to certain market and contractual restrictions. Limited Stores In August 2007, the Company completed the divestiture of 75% of its ownership interest in Limited Stores. In conjunction with the transaction, the Company and Limited Stores entered into transition services agreements whereby the Company provided support to Limited Stores in various operational areas including logistics, technology and merchandise sourcing. The terms of these transition services arrangements varied and ranged from three months to three years. In June 2010, the Company entered into a new agreement with Limited Stores whereby the Company will continue to provide logistics services. The Company also continues to provide merchandise sourcing services to Limited Stores.
The Company recognized merchandise sourcing revenue from Limited Stores of $22 million and $18 million in the third quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Company recognized merchandise sourcing revenue from Limited Stores of $44 million for both year-to-date 2010 and 2009, respectively. The amounts are net of the elimination of merchandise sourcing revenue equal to the Company's ownership percentage. The Company's accounts receivable from Limited Stores for merchandise sourcing and other services provided totaled $11 million as of October 30, 2010, $10 million as of January 30, 2010 and $9 million as of October 31, 2009. In February 2010, Limited Stores completed a cash distribution to its owners and the Company received $7 million. The proceeds received from the cash dividend reduced the Company's carrying value of the investment in Limited Stores. The distribution represented a return of capital and is included in Return of Capital from Limited Stores within the Investing Activities section on the 2010 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. In June 2010, the Company completed the divestiture of its remaining 25% ownership interest in Limited Stores and resigned its seats on Limited Stores' Board of Directors. The Company received pre-tax net cash proceeds of $32 million from the divestiture which are included in Proceeds from Divestiture of Limited Stores within the Investing Activities section on the 2010 Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The Company recorded a pre-tax gain on the divestiture of $20 million ($42 million net of related tax benefits). The pre-tax gain is included in Other Income (Loss) on the year-to-date 2010 Consolidated Statement of Income. The Company no longer records equity income (loss) from Limited Stores in Other Income (Loss) on the Consolidated Statement of Income. The Company also began recognizing 100% of merchandise sourcing sales to Limited Stores following the divestiture. The Company's investment carrying value for Limited Stores was $13 million and $12 million as of January 30, 2010 and October 31, 2009, respectively. These amounts are included in Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Easton Investment The Company has land and other investments in Easton, a 1,300 acre planned community in Columbus, Ohio that integrates office, hotel, retail, residential and recreational space. These investments, at cost, totaled $68 million as of October 30, 2010, $66 million as of January 30, 2010 and $64 million as of October 31, 2009 and are recorded in Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Included in the Company's Easton investments is an equity interest in Easton Town Center, LLC ("ETC"), an entity that owns and has developed a commercial entertainment and shopping center. The Company's investment in ETC is accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The Company has a majority financial interest in ETC, but another unaffiliated member manages ETC. Certain significant decisions regarding ETC require the consent of unaffiliated members in addition to the Company. Other In April 2008, the Company recorded a pre-tax impairment charge of $19 million related to an unconsolidated joint venture accounted for under the equity method of accounting. The charge consisted of writing down the investment balance, reserving certain accounts and notes receivable and accruing a contractual liability. In July 2009, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $9 million ($14 million net of related tax benefits) associated with the reversal of the accrued contractual liability as a result of the divestiture of the joint venture. The pre-tax gain is included in Net Gain on Joint Venture on the year-to-date 2009 Consolidated Statement of Income. |

| Income Taxes | 8. Income Taxes The provision for income taxes is based on the current estimate of the annual effective tax rate and is adjusted as necessary for quarterly events. The Company's quarterly effective tax rate does not reflect a benefit associated with losses related to certain foreign subsidiaries. The Company's effective tax rate has historically reflected a provision related to the undistributed earnings of foreign affiliates, but the related taxes are not paid until the earnings are deemed repatriated to the United States. The Company has historically recorded a deferred tax liability for those undistributed earnings. Currently, no deferred tax liability is recorded on foreign affiliated earnings as the tax basis is greater than the carrying value. For the third quarter of 2010 and year-to-date 2010, the Company's effective tax rate was 39.6% and 33.8%, respectively. For year-to-date 2010, the Company's effective tax rate was favorably impacted by the divestiture of the Company's remaining 25% ownership in Limited Stores, which resulted in the recognition of the capital loss associated with the 2007 divestiture of 75% of the Company's ownership in Limited Stores. For the third quarter of 2009 and year-to-date 2009, the Company's effective tax rate was (30.7%) and 19.3%, respectively. For the third quarter of 2009, the Company's effective tax rate benefited from changes in income tax reserves associated with the resolution of certain tax matters and other items. For year-to-date 2009, the Company's effective tax rate was favorably impacted by the resolution of certain tax matters and the impact of the divestiture of a non-core joint venture, partially offset by an increase in state net operating loss valuation allowances.
Income taxes paid were approximately $74 million and $6 million for the third quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Income taxes paid approximated $342 million and $88 million for year-to-date 2010 and 2009, respectively. The current income tax liability included net current deferred tax liabilities of $2 million as of October 30, 2010, January 30, 2010 and October 31, 2009. |

| Long-term Debt | 9. Long-term Debt The following table provides the Company's long-term debt balance as of October 30, 2010, January 30, 2010 and October 31, 2009:
Issuance of Notes In June 2009, the Company issued $500 million of 8.50% notes due in June 2019. The obligation to pay principal and interest on these notes is jointly and severally guaranteed on a full and unconditional basis by certain of the Company's wholly owned subsidiaries (the "guarantors"). The net proceeds from the issuance were $473 million, which included an issuance discount of $16 million and transaction costs of $11 million. These transaction costs are being amortized through the maturity date of June 2019 and are included within Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In May 2010, the Company issued $400 million of 7.00% notes due in May 2020 utilizing an existing shelf registration under which up to $1 billion of debt securities, common and preferred stock and other securities can be issued. The 2020 Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed on a full and unconditional basis by the guarantors. The net proceeds from the issuance were $390 million, which included transaction costs of $10 million. These transaction costs are being amortized through the maturity date of May 2020 and are included within Other Assets on the 2010 Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Repurchase of Notes In June 2009, the Company repurchased $5 million of the 2012 Notes through open-market transactions. In August 2009, the Company repurchased $103 million of the 2012 Notes through a tender offer for $101 million. The gain on extinguishment of this debt of $2 million is included in Other Income (Loss) on the year-to-date 2009 Consolidated Statement of Income. In May 2010, the Company used a portion of the proceeds from the 2020 Notes to repurchase $134 million of the Company's 2012 Notes for $144 million. The Company used the remaining portion of the proceeds from the 2020 Notes to repurchase $266 million of the 2014 Notes for $277 million. The loss on extinguishment of this debt of $25 million is included in Other Income (Loss) on the year-to-date 2010 Consolidated Statement of Income. In August 2010, the Company repurchased $20 million and $1 million of 2014 Notes and 2012 Notes, respectively, through open-market transactions. Credit Facility and Term Loan 2009 On February 19, 2009, the Company amended its $1 billion unsecured revolving credit facility expiring in August 2012 (the "5-Year Facility"), amended its Term Loan for $750 million maturing in August 2012 and canceled its $300 million, 364-day unsecured revolving credit facility. The Company incurred fees related to the amendment of the 5-Year Facility and the Term Loan of $19 million. The fees associated with the 5-Year Facility amendment of $11 million were capitalized. The remaining cost is being amortized through the maturity date of the 5-Year Facility and is included within Other Assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fees associated with the Term Loan amendment of $8 million were expensed in addition to unamortized fees related to the original agreement of $2 million. These charges are included within Interest Expense on the year-to-date 2009 Consolidated Statement of Income. The Company prepaid $550 million of the Term Loan throughout 2009. 2010 In March 2010, the Company prepaid the remaining $200 million of the Term Loan with cash on hand and also entered into an amendment and restatement (the "Amendment") of its 5-Year Facility. The Amendment established two classes of loans under the 5-Year Facility: Class A loans to be made by lenders who consent to the Amendment and Class B loans to be made by non-consenting lenders. The Amendment extended the termination date of the 5-Year Facility from August 3, 2012 to August 1, 2014 on Class A loans. The Amendment also reduced the aggregate amount of the commitments of the lenders under the 5-Year Facility from $1 billion to $927 million. The loan commitments were $800 million and $127 million for Class A and Class B, respectively. In July 2010, the Company terminated the $127 million of commitments for Class B loans related to the 5-Year Facility. Additionally, the Amendment modified the covenants limiting investments and restricted payments to provide that investments and restricted payments may be made, without limitation on amount, if (a) at the time of and after giving effect to such investment or restricted payment the ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated EBITDA for the most recent four-quarter period is less than 3.0 to 1.0 and (b) no default or event of default exists. The Company was in compliance with all of its covenant requirements as of October 30, 2010. The Company incurred fees related to the amendment of the 5-Year Facility of $13 million which were capitalized and are being amortized through the maturity date of the 5-Year Facility. The 5-Year Facility has several interest rate options, which are based in part on the Company's long-term credit ratings. Fees payable under the 5-Year Facility are based on the Company's long-term credit ratings and are currently 0.75% of the committed and unutilized amounts per year and 3.50% on any outstanding borrowings or letters of credit. As of October 30, 2010, there were no borrowings outstanding under the 5-Year Facility. Letters of Credit The 5-Year Facility supports the Company's letter of credit program. The Company had $67 million of outstanding letters of credit as of October 30, 2010 that reduce its remaining availability under its amended credit agreements. Participating Interest Rate Swap Arrangements In January 2008, the Company entered into participating interest rate swap arrangements designated as cash flow hedges to mitigate exposure to interest rate fluctuations related to the Term Loan. In March 2010, the Company terminated the remaining portion of the participating interest rate swap arrangement totaling $200 million in conjunction with the remaining $200 million Term Loan prepayment. For additional information, see Note 10, "Derivative Instruments." Fair Value Interest Rate Swap Arrangements In June 2010, the Company entered into multiple fair value interest rate swap arrangements to effectively convert all of the outstanding 2012 Notes, all of the outstanding 2014 Notes and $175 million of the outstanding 2017 Notes from a fixed interest rate to a variable interest rate. For additional information, see Note 10, "Derivative Instruments." In August 2010, the Company terminated interest rate designated fair value hedges with a notional amount of $21 million in conjunction with the repurchase of $20 million and $1 million of 2014 Notes and 2012 Notes, respectively. |

| Derivative Instruments | 10. Derivative Instruments Foreign Exchange Risk In January 2007, the Company entered into a series of cross-currency swaps related to approximately $470 million of Canadian dollar denominated intercompany loans. These cross-currency swaps mitigate the exposure to fluctuations in the U.S. dollar-Canadian dollar exchange rate related to the Company's La Senza operations. The cross-currency swaps require the periodic exchange of fixed rate Canadian dollar interest payments for fixed rate U.S. dollar interest payments as well as exchange of Canadian dollar and U.S. dollar principal payments upon maturity. The cross-currency swaps mature between 2015 and 2018 at the same time as the related loans and are designated as cash flow hedges of foreign currency exchange risk. Changes in the U.S. dollar-Canadian dollar exchange rate and the related swap settlements result in reclassification of amounts from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings to completely offset foreign currency transaction gains and losses recognized on the intercompany loans. The following table provides a summary of the fair value and balance sheet classification of the derivative financial instruments designated as foreign exchange cash flow hedges as of October 30, 2010, January 30, 2010, and October 31, 2009:
The following table provides a summary of the pre-tax financial statement effect of the gains and losses on the Company's derivative instruments designated as foreign exchange cash flow hedges for the third quarter and year-to-date 2010 and 2009:
Interest Rate Risk Interest Rate Designated Fair Value Hedges In June 2010, the Company entered into multiple interest rate swap arrangements related to all of the outstanding 2012 Notes, all of the outstanding 2014 Notes and $175 million of the outstanding 2017 Notes. The interest rate swap arrangements effectively convert the fixed interest rate on the related debt to a variable interest rate based on a three-month London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus a fixed interest rate. The swap arrangements are designated as fair value hedges. The changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps have an equal and offsetting impact to the carrying value of the debt on the balance sheet. The differential to be paid or received on the interest rate swap arrangements is accrued and recognized as an adjustment to interest expense. In August 2010, the Company terminated interest rate designated fair value hedges with a notional amount of $21 million in conjunction with the repurchase of $20 million and $1 million of 2014 Notes and 2012 Notes, respectively.
The following table provides a summary of the fair value and balance sheet classification of the derivative financial instruments designated as interest rate fair value hedges as of October 30, 2010:
Interest Rate Designated Cash Flow Hedges In January 2008, the Company entered into participating interest rate swap arrangements to mitigate exposure to interest rate fluctuations related to the Term Loan. The participating interest rate swap arrangements effectively converted the Term Loan to a fixed interest rate. The swap arrangements were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk and expired in 2012, at the same time as the related debt. Amounts were reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings as interest expense was recognized on the Term Loan. In June 2009, the Company prepaid $392 million of the Term Loan. In conjunction with the Term Loan prepayment, the Company de-designated portions of the participating interest rate swap arrangements totaling $392 million. As a result, hedge accounting was discontinued prospectively on the de-designated portions of the arrangements. Immediately following de-designation, the Company terminated $292 million of the arrangements which resulted in realized losses of $12 million. These realized losses were recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) on the Consolidated Balance Sheet and will be amortized into Interest Expense through the remaining life of the original hedged instrument (August 2012). To offset the impact of the remaining $100 million portion of the de-designated arrangements, the Company entered into a non-designated derivative instrument. In December 2009, the Company prepaid an additional $158 million of the Term Loan. In conjunction with the Term Loan prepayment, the Company terminated an equal portion of the participating interest rate swap arrangements which resulted in a realized loss of $8 million in the fourth quarter of 2009. This realized loss was expensed as there are no future cash flows associated with these terminated swap arrangements. In March 2010, the Company prepaid the remaining $200 million of the Term Loan. In conjunction with the Term Loan prepayment, the Company terminated the remaining portion of the participating interest rate swap arrangements totaling $200 million resulting in a realized loss of $10 million. This realized loss was expensed as there are no future cash flows associated with these terminated swap arrangements. This realized loss was recognized in Interest Expense on the year-to-date 2010 Consolidated Statement of Income.

| Fair Value Measurements | 11. Fair Value Measurements The following table provides a summary of the carrying value and fair value of long-term debt as of October 30, 2010, January 30, 2010 and October 31, 2009:
The following table provides a summary of assets and liabilities measured in the consolidated financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis as of October 30, 2010, January 30, 2010 and October 31, 2009:
The Company's Level 2 fair value measurements are measured using market approach valuation techniques. The primary inputs to these techniques include benchmark interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, as applicable to the underlying instruments. The Company's Level 3 fair value measurements are measured using income approach valuation techniques. The primary inputs to these techniques include the Company's assessment of the risk of default on guaranteed leases and discount rates. Management believes that the carrying values of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of their short maturity.
The following table provides a reconciliation of the Company's lease guarantees measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the third quarter and year-to-date 2010 and 2009:
The Company's lease guarantees include minimum rent and additional payments covering taxes, common area costs and certain other expenses and relate to leases that commenced prior to the disposition of certain businesses. The fair value of these lease guarantees is impacted by economic conditions, probability of rent obligation payments, period of remaining obligation as well as the discount rate utilized. For additional information, see Note 13, "Commitments and Contingencies." |

| Notes to Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
| Commitments and Contingencies | 13. Commitments and Contingencies The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies related to lawsuits, taxes, insurance, regulatory and other matters arising out of the normal course of business. Actions filed against the Company from time to time include commercial, tort, intellectual property, customer, employment, data privacy, securities and other claims, including purported class action lawsuits. Management believes that the ultimate liability arising from such claims and contingencies, if any, is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. On November 6, 2009, a class action (International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 697 Pension Fund v. Limited Brands, Inc. et al.) was filed against the Company and certain of its officers in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio on behalf of a purported class of all persons who purchased or acquired shares of Limited Brands common stock between August 22, 2007 and February 28, 2008. On April 5, 2010, the Court appointed a lead plaintiff and lead and liaison counsel. On June 25, 2010, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint. On August 24, 2010, the Company filed a motion to dismiss. The Company believes the complaint is without merit and that the Company has substantial factual and legal defenses to the claims at issue. The Company intends to vigorously defend against this action. The Company cannot reasonably estimate the possible loss or range of loss that may result from this lawsuit.
Guarantees In connection with the disposition of certain businesses, the Company has remaining guarantees of approximately $106 million related to lease payments of Express, Limited Stores, Abercrombie & Fitch, Dick's Sporting Goods (formerly Galyan's), Lane Bryant, New York & Company and Anne.x under the current terms of noncancelable leases expiring at various dates through 2017. These guarantees include minimum rent and additional payments covering taxes, common area costs and certain other expenses and relate to leases that commenced prior to the disposition of the businesses. In certain instances, the Company's guarantee may remain in effect if the term of a lease is extended. In April 2008, the Company received an irrevocable standby letter of credit from Express of $34 million issued by a third-party bank to mitigate a portion of the Company's contingent liability for guaranteed future lease payments of Express. The Company could have drawn from the irrevocable standby letter of credit if Express had defaulted on any of the guaranteed leases. The irrevocable standby letter of credit was reduced through the November 1, 2010 expiration date consistent with the overall reduction in guaranteed lease payments. The outstanding balance of the irrevocable standby letter of credit from Express was zero as of October 30, 2010, $6 million as of January 30, 2010 and $10 million as of October 31, 2009. The Company's guarantees related to Express, Limited Stores and New York & Company require fair value accounting in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") in effect at the time of these divestitures. The guaranteed lease payments related to Express, Limited Stores and New York & Company totaled $71 million as of October 30, 2010, $84 million as of January 30, 2010 and $87 million as of October 31, 2009. The estimated fair value of these guarantee obligations was $6 million as of October 30, 2010, $9 million as of January 30, 2010 and $15 million as of October 31, 2009, and is included in Other Long-term Liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company's guarantees related to Abercrombie & Fitch, Dick's Sporting Goods (formerly Galyan's), Lane Bryant and Anne.x are not subject to fair value accounting, but require that a loss be accrued when probable and reasonably estimable based on U.S. GAAP in effect at the time of these divestitures. The Company had no liability recorded with respect to any of the guarantee obligations as it concluded that payments under these guarantees were not probable as of October 30, 2010, January 30, 2010 and October 31, 2009. |

| Retirement Benefits | 14. Retirement Benefits The Company sponsors a tax-qualified defined contribution retirement plan and a non-qualified supplemental retirement plan for substantially all of its associates within the United States of America. Participation in the tax-qualified plan is available to associates who meet certain age and service requirements. Participation in the non-qualified plan is made available to associates who meet certain age, service, job level and compensation requirements. The qualified plan permits participating associates to elect contributions up to the maximum limits allowable under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company matches associate contributions according to a predetermined formula and contributes additional amounts based on a percentage of the associates' eligible annual compensation and years of service. Associate contributions and Company matching contributions vest immediately. Additional Company contributions and the related investment earnings are subject to vesting based on years of service. Total expense recognized related to the qualified plan was $11 million for both the third quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total expense recognized related to the qualified plan was $36 million and $33 million for year-to-date 2010 and 2009, respectively. The non-qualified plan is an unfunded plan which provides benefits beyond the Internal Revenue Code limits for qualified defined contribution plans. The plan permits participating associates to elect contributions up to a maximum percentage of eligible compensation. The Company matches associate contributions according to a predetermined formula and contributes additional amounts based on a percentage of the associates' eligible compensation and years of service. The plan also permits participating associates to defer additional compensation up to a maximum amount which the Company does not match. Associates' accounts are credited with interest using a rate determined by the Company. Associate contributions and the related interest vest immediately. Company contributions, along with related interest, are subject to vesting based on years of service. Associates may elect in-service distributions for the unmatched additional deferred compensation component only. The remaining vested portion of associates' accounts in the plan will be distributed upon termination of employment in either a lump sum or in equal annual installments over a specified period of up to 10 years. Total expense recognized related to the non-qualified plan was $7 million and $6 million for the third quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively. Total expense recognized related to the non-qualified plan was $19 million and $15 million for year-to-date 2010 and 2009, respectively. |

The Company is a specialty retailer of women's intimate and other apparel, beauty and personal care products and accessories. The Company sells its merchandise through specialty retail stores in the United States and Canada, which are primarily mall-based, and through its websites, catalogue and other channels.

| Fiscal Year | Fiscal Year The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday nearest to January 31. As used herein, "third quarter of 2010" and "third quarter of 2009" refer to the thirteen week periods ending October 30, 2010 and October 31, 2009, respectively. "Year-to-date 2010" and "year-to-date 2009" refer to the thirty-nine week periods ending October 30, 2010 and October 31, 2009, respectively. |

| Basis of Consolidation | Basis of Consolidation The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company accounts for investments in unconsolidated entities where it exercises significant influence, but does not have control, using the equity method. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company recognizes its share of the investee net income or loss. Losses are only recognized to the extent the Company has positive carrying value related to the investee. Carrying values are only reduced below zero if the Company has an obligation to provide funding to the investee. The Company's share of net income or loss of unconsolidated entities from which the Company purchases merchandise or merchandise components is included in Cost of Goods Sold, Buying and Occupancy on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company's share of net income or loss of all other unconsolidated entities is included in Other Income (Loss) on the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company's equity investments are required to be tested for impairment when it is determined there may be an other than temporary loss in value. Express Through May 12, 2010, the Company had a 25% ownership interest in Express and accounted for this investment under the equity method of accounting. On May 13, 2010, Express completed an initial public offering ("IPO"). Additionally, the Company sold a portion of its shares of common stock in Express in conjunction with the IPO. As a result, the Company's ownership interest was diluted from 25% to 18%. The Company eliminated in consolidation 25% of merchandise sourcing sales to Express through May 12, 2010 and eliminated 18% from May 13, 2010 through the end of the second quarter of 2010. Based on the Company's reduced ownership in Express, the resulting loss of contractual rights and the resignation of the Company's seats on Express' Board of Directors in August 2010, the Company concluded that it was no longer appropriate to account for its investment in Express using the equity method of accounting. At the beginning of the third quarter of 2010, the Company commenced accounting for its investment in Express using the cost method of accounting. As a result of the accounting change, the Company no longer records equity income (loss) from Express in Other Income (Loss) on the Consolidated Statement of Income and the Company also began recognizing 100% of merchandise sourcing sales to Express. The Company believes the cost method of accounting, rather than the available for sale method, is appropriate because the Company's shares of Express' common stock are not registered and are subject to certain market and contractual restrictions.
Limited Stores Through June 9, 2010, the Company had a 25% ownership interest in Limited Stores. The Company accounted for this investment under the equity method of accounting and eliminated in consolidation 25% of merchandise sourcing sales to Limited Stores equal to the Company's ownership percentage. On June 10, 2010, the Company divested its remaining 25% ownership percentage in Limited Stores and resigned its seats on Limited Stores' Board of Directors. Beginning June 10, 2010, the Company no longer records equity income (loss) from Limited Stores and also began recognizing 100% of merchandise sourcing sales to Limited Stores. |

Describes an entity's application of the equity method of accounting to investments in common stock or other interests including unconsolidated subsidiaries, corporate joint ventures, noncontrolling interests in real estate ventures, limited partnerships, and limited liability companies. The description should include information such as: (1) initially recording an investment in the stock of an investee at cost; (2) adjusting the carrying amount of the investment to recognize the investor's share of the earnings or losses of the investee after the date of acquisition; and (3) adjustments to reflect the investor's share of changes in the investee's capital (dividends). This disclosure may also include a detailed description of the policy for determining the amount of equity method losses recognized after an investment has been reduced to zero as a result of previous losses, reasons for not using the equity method when the investor company owns 20 percent or more of the voting stock of the investee's company (including identification of the significant investee), reasons for using the equity method when the ownership percentage is less than 20 percent, and discussion of recognition of equity method losses when an investor's total investment in an investee includes, in addition to an investment in common stock, other investments such as preferred stock and loans to the investee. An entity also may describe how such investments are assessed for impairment. Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef

Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits should not be reported as cash and cash equivalents.
