Finally, the cashier told me to take off my coat--sure enough, there was a hidden tag in there that hadn't been removed when I bought it a few weeks earlier.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17218624.post-83594248370758514742010-11-08T20:31:09.050+00:002010-11-08T20:31:09.050+00:00How embarrassing!

Trying to find our way up to the next floor, we went through a door marked Fire Exit and this deafening alarm went off with everyone in the gallery staring curiously at us. And no, there wasn't any sign warning us not to go through the door....<br /><br />Re Tesco, as you say, surely their systems shouldn't allow a tagged item through the till?nickhttp://nickhereandnow.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
