Some people amaze me. My wife bought a new dress for our friends wedding on Friday, and the girl in the shop...forgot to take the security tag off (even though the shop has no security barrier things by the door?!) so I now have to drive the 30 mile round trip tomorrow to go back and get them to take it off. Idiots.
 
have you rung customer services explaining it's going to cost you petrol and time to bring it back ?
 
I went at the little blighter with 2 pairs of mole grips...it soon budged :D

really I thought they burst ink everywhere?

had similar happen but didn't notice till I wore it, a few weeks later, receipt long lost - still got the shirt in the loft :bang:
 
If the beeper did not go off when the garment was on a counter she would not of known it was tagged and if it didnt beep when you went out of the shop she would not of known it was tagged,so the shop assistant is not ''stupid' the companys security system is flawed.
 
The don't all have ink in, this was one of the older stick-style ones.

a few years ago I bought something from costco in manchester, I drove home to warrington , when I got home I opened the box and a part was missing, I phoned costco and told them i'd have to come all the way back to get it which was going to cost me time and petrol the manager apologised to me on the phone, when I collected the part they gave me a £10 refund.

i've shopped at costco ever since, a £10 refund could be worth thousands in the years to come
 
if its still live, smash up the plastic casing and get the gubbins on the inside, buy a wallet and sew it into the lining of the wallet and give it away as a gift to someone..... hilarity ensues every time they walk into or out of a shop using that system :D

that is just sheer cruelty , but funny as hell :lol:
 
Chris,

The least they could do as recompense is to give you another dress free - in your size ;)

Oh, I've kept it :D It's a bit big for a wallet, but still easily concealable. Muah ha ha ha ha :nuts:

I think I'm going to put it in my wife's handbag, that'll teach her to check there's no tag on a dress before she walks out with it :lol:

I wouldn't, unless you're considering joining a monastery :D

They always have the upper hand in the long run :bat:
