Do you always try clothes on before you buy them?

Reading this thread and now trying on clothes was in Dunnes earlier to get a cardi and even tried it on

I try on everything, even in Penneys. I like to make sure that absolutely everything I'm buying fits right before I even think about flashing the cash.

PS I work in a clothing shop with no fitting rooms.

Does your store offer money back if it doesnt fit?

I try most things on, especially jeans and dresses.
Occasionally I make an exception in Pennys if Im not bothered changing, because theres never a problem exchanging/getting a refund if it doesnt fit when you get home.

The Big Red Button

I never try things on in Penneys or New Look, because I know my size there.

Other places, particularly if they're more expensive, I do try things on - but if I was in a rush, I'd just buy it and check at the till that I'll get a refund if it doesn't fit - you do need to check it for any damage or anything first though obviously so that they don't blame you for it if you bring it back!

I have also, a couple of times, bought the same item in two different sizes! That's usually if I urgently need something for a night out or whatever, if I'm pretty sure that at least one of them will look OK but don't have time to try on, I just get the two and bring one of them back to the shop the next day.

I've never bought any clothes online, I've seen some lovely stuff but I'd just be too disappointed if it came and didn't fit!

I used to work in an old-lady shop where we gave things out on "appro", i.e. the customers came in/sent someone in, brought a load of clothes home, and just brought back the things they didn't want and paid for the rest. Obviously this could never work for mainstream shops, but it would be great if it did!

I never try anything on, partly because I hate the time it takes, and also because ALL changing room mirrors and lighting make you look terrible!

So I just buy stuff and return it if it doesn't fit/doesn't look nice. I'm always careful to check the store's returns policy before I buy :-)
