A decent whack will get if off might take more than one

Yeah, she 'left it on'. :P
Tell herself to calm down, sh*t happens. I'm sure he has something else to wear.

I am guessing you probably will need to bring it back to the shop but you could try a magnet if it is an alarm one .I have no idea if it will work or not but it is worth trying. If it is a ink one do not touch it unless you want a multicolour top.

Best keep it until tomorrow, and bring it back.

Some of them can be burnt off though depending on the type.

any chance you could go back to shop or a local branch of shop if possible with receipt in hand?

maybe even any shop with one of those things that opens the tag (magnetic?)

I dont know what time type of tag it is
White plastic bar with a metal (alliminum) spiral head at the other side of the top

Truncheon Rouge · 31-03-2013 02:49PM

A pliers and some well placed plastic covering might be the best bet.
or a saw blade if its really niggly.

maybe a bread knife ??? :pac:

or just cut the top and re-sew it.

or just wear it as is today and return it tomorrow....cover the tag with something...i dunno ...a cat ... or a lily. glue a cut out justin bieber face over it.

or just wear it under a coat.

Knife thru the middle of it, happened me with a pair of runners before, it'll take a few minutes tho.

admiralofthefleet · 31-03-2013 02:56PM

throw the top in the fire, that will remove it

gavindublin · 31-03-2013 02:57PM

Nope unfortuatly

But I get some, then what?

gavindublin · 31-03-2013 03:01PM

One side has an ink logo, other has a small steel pin marl. Put the (strong) magnet on the ink side. It'll release the tag.

What county you in??

If you've the receipt, go back and get it removed, if it's convenient. If you've the receipt, it should be no problem.

Let him wear a different jumper and return it when the shop is open.

Simple mistake to make. Calling the check out girl names is childish.

gavindublin · 31-03-2013 03:06PM

Too Far to help so.

Just reverse over it so. Without the kid inside it

Corruptedmorals · 31-03-2013 03:10PM

Only the circular tags are magnetic and have dye in them. The white bar ones need a special slot thing built into the checkout to remove, you haven't a hope of getting that off. Some tills have alarms built into them so mistakes can be caught before handing the bag over, but if not then people will miss one every now and again. Sometimes two tags are put on the same top by accident so when one is found nobody looks for another, sometimes the tag blends into the item. It's not dopey, its called being human.

Don't go messing with it - made that mistake in the past. Bring it back and make sure you complain to the shop!

shopaholic01 · 31-03-2013 04:00PM

Why do they bother putting tags on if you can just walk out with them attached?

*off shoplifting now*
