To be really pissed off that I have discovered a security tag on my new top?

[MadSprocker]

Just that really. Getting my clothes sorted this morning and discovered on of those hi tech security tags, that obviously doesn't work, or it would have set the alarms off! Also shop was about 45 min drive away, so not easily sorted.

A quick google flindicates that there was a closing down of a lot of stores but there are still quite few about.

Further flapologies.

In the past, I've had security tags left on

A handbag
Several tops
My DSSs PJs

Flollox

Each time it has involved a return trip. Now I get the assistant to thoroughly check the item (twice!)

Aah, posted too soon earlier when cat woke me up. Smothercare was alive and well in Leeds yesterday lunchtime.

This has just happened to me for the first time too, Peacocks .

I shall investigate the links.

I picked up something from the second hand shop I work in that still has its security tag on. Obviously can't take it to a shop to get it removed as no receipt from its original purchase. Guess its hammer time!
