In Honor of the SuperMarket Pet Peeves Thread...

I feel the need for an old favorite - the Dear Old Navy thread!!!!

Dear Old Navy (or any retail clothing store)
When I buy clothes, PLEASE do not crumple them up and put them in the bag or fold them in an awful way. This is the one time I can wear the clothes without ironing!!!
Yours,
Fear of Wrinkles!

Dear Nordstrom.com,

When I order a BRACELET from you and have it shipped two day express because I needed it for a gift, please don't send me a NECKLACE!!

Dear Old Navy,

When I'm shopping I would love, for once, to look at the clothes on the hanger..not the floor. It makes life much easier.

Thanks,

Dear Abecrombie,

Just because I am not a tiny, anorexic, 80lb, little stick figured woman that desperately needs to eat a dozen white castles... that doesn't mean I deserve to see the girls working there roll their eyes when I walk into the store.


Signed,
DjPiLL's wife

True story:


My wife was shopping for my bday last week cause I needed some shirts. I prefer Express.... but I don't mind Abecrombie.

My wife told me she got the BIGGEST attitude from the girls that work there.

She first asked a girl wearing an abecrombie shirt standing at the front if she worked there.

Girl responded "well... i am standing here and and wearing a shirt... could i just be doing this for my health?"

She then asked about a shirt that was on a manaquin (sp).

The girl responded... "well i am not sure if we have that".

My wife was like "well can you check?"

Girl responded with "well... its probably last year's style if you can't find it in the store".



LOL... true story. I might have ad-libed it a bit. But that was the general drift. My wife still thinks people look at her funny when she goes in there (the staff AND the other customers).

And its not like my wife is fat or anything. She just isn't 80 lbs.

Maybe its a woman thing. The girls seem to be nice to me when I walk in. And I am FAR from the Abecrombie type. Chat Icon

My wife was mad ****** though. I am surprised she didn't go totally off in the store. A calmer head prevailed probably cause she knew i needed shirts and she had no clue what to buy me and figured that Abecrombie was a safe bet.

Just because IM overweight doesn't mean that I am 7 foot tall. Please make your "petite" clothes PETITE!!! I shouldn't have to wear HEALS for them NOT to drag on the floor (and sometimes they still do!)

Let me know too so I can let DW know. My wife is definitely the type of woman that has no problem opening a serious can of whoop-axx on someone.

Dear Lucky Magazine,

Before you publish new must have items that I 'need' to have, make sure they are in the store first! Not in 6 months. I don't live in Iceland. New York is fairly up to date.

Thank you!

Sincerely,
Needs another smelly conditioner like a hole in my head!

Dear Lord and Taylor,


Please train your employees not to yell "TOO TIGHT! MUCH TOO TIGHT" across the store at paying customers, who are trying on a smaller size coat to save your employees time by figuring out first if they need one size up or two. It's really not nice. PS. She yanked the coat out of my hands. I got 2 sizes up, but it was too big. I guess it wasn't MUCH too tight after all.
