Dressed for success

bitchsawmebuyit - - United States - Yorktown Heights

Today, I realized the dress I bought yesterday still had the security tag on. I returned to the store to get it removed, only to realize I'd lost my receipt. The lady at the counter thought I stole it, called security, and had me escorted out, dress-less. FML

Talk to a manager and ask them to look at the camera, call the police

YDI OP, for not paying attention to the security alarm when you walked out of the store, at the time of purchase AND for walking back into the store, knowing you had an item with a security tag, without a receipt. On the bright side, I hope this has a happy ending. Go back (with the receipt) and speak to the person who took the dress from you.

A) What's wrong with scissors for cutting off the tag? b) And going w/o the receipt?

You can't cut off a security tag with scissors.

If you could cut off security tags with scissors, a lot of stores would go out of business.

You wouldn't use scissors but they are ways to remove them. The best way to make sure you don't damage what you bought however, is to take it back to the store and ask them to remove the tag like OP ended up doing.

So you got past the front door without the tag exploding and they still think you stole it? People these days

The tags don't explode unless you try ripping them off. They just beep. People these days.

Happened to me with a pair of jeans once... I took a hacksaw, pliers, garden shears and a hammer and it came off

You're lucky they didn't give you a citation or a fine or even get arrested for it. You should ask them to check the security cameras to verify that you bought the dress. I'm sure it won't be hard to sort out, especially if you do find the receipt.

You should of had a V8 or asked to see the cam footage cause the should have a video of you arriving which would show you in the dress

Call the manager and complain. The security footage should prove you're telling the truth.
