Clothes, Shopping and Awkward: It's not what you think

It's not what you think

By Shopper - 23/05/2012 22:50 - United States

Today, I was shopping with a friend. We snuck into the same fitting room so we could give our opinions on each other's clothes. The suspicious saleswoman knocked on the door and asked how many people were in our room. I quickly answered, "It's OK. She's just watching." FML

All my fault

Today, I went clothes shopping. I took my little daughter into the dressing room while I tried some clothes on. She somehow managed to open the door while I was changing. A lady outside then bitched me out for "exposing" myself to her kids. FML

Late start

By Rachel - 18/05/2009 15:23 - United States

Today, I was planning on meeting my friend at the mall. She came late, and I was in the dressing room trying on a few things. When I came out to meet her, she looked at me oddly and said, "You shouldn't buy that, it looks terrible on you." Those were the clothes I came in. FML

Stalling

By Anonymous - 04/10/2009 02:56 - United States

Today, I was trying on dresses in a stall that requires an employee of the store to have a key to open. After I took off one dress to go to another, an employee quickly opens my door, to give the stall to someone else. The entire store could see me in my granny panties and bra. FML

Today, I was shopping in the mall. A cute store worker kept checking me out, so after I picked a few things I went up to her and started flirting. After a few seconds, she cut me off and said, "Actually I was watching you because you look like someone who would shoplift." FML

Doggy dog world

Today, I was out shopping with my little sister. I wanted to try something on, so I put my bag in front of a changing room and jokingly told her to bark if someone came near. She ended up biting a lady who was trying to get into one of the changing rooms. FML

Today, I went shopping with a friend. She went to try some clothes on and came out to ask for my opinion. "Hell no! That shirt is awful!". She wanted to show me the pants. The shirt was hers. FML

It is though

Today, I went to the shops with my little sister. We had to walk through the lingerie section of the store to get to another part. My sister then yelled at the top of her voice, "Stop following me, you freak." I had security escort me out of the store, and got many dirty looks. She thought it was hilarious. FML

You good, lady?

By Eliza - 04/04/2012 03:40 - United States - San Antonio

Today, I noticed a strange lady following me around in the mall. After a while I began to get creeped out, so I confronted her. Apparently she has to make sure everything she buys is better than what I buy. After a long silence she said, "What? You never noticed me before?" FML

Nice boxers

By Harmonia - 26/01/2009 10:09 - France

Today, I went shopping with my boyfriend. He tried on a pair of trousers which didn't fit, so he asked me to change them, so off I went. I returned with another pair for him to try on, found him bent over and blurted out, "What's with the terrible underwear?" I'd entered the wrong changing room. FML

Today, I was in a public restroom when the girl in the stall next to me started asking me how I was doing. Thinking it was weird but not wanting to be rude, I answered her questions. Halfway though our conversation she said: "Hold on, the girl in the stall next to me thinks I'm talking to her." FML

I can't help but wonder why she cares that there's more than one person. Do two people shoplift better than one?

That awkward moment when the saleswoman asks, "can I watch too?".

As someone who's worked in retail for a few years, it's understandable to think that there COULD be some suspicion with 2 people going into a fitting room together..but every situation is different, and usually this isn't really the case.. HOWEVER.... Overall I see nothing wrong with this AT ALL. My best friend and I do this all the time, as long as the store allows it! There certainly are times where it's just easier due to lack of fitting rooms, or like some said, maybe I don't want the rest of the world to see me in that new bra I'm trying on, or this new outfit that I'm really not sure about...just my best friend. It's so ignorant of people to assume that these two are lesbians just for being in the same fitting room together, like my goodness! I mean honestly, are you then going to try to argue the idea that since a parent brings his/her kid in the fitting room he/she's going to molest the kid since they're in the same room? It's absolutely barbaric and doesn't make sense. Neither does assuming these two are going to have sex or do whatever else in the freaking fitting room! But honestly. If it doesn't affect YOU personally in any way, what the hell is it your business what any other person does or any people do? Seriously....

I've never seen a sign saying one person per changing room before, even if the store doesn't like it or whatever, the saleswoman should have been used to seeing it before, it's a common girl thing.
