@aubnwa01 if an online purchase doesn't fit do you take it back to the local store?  I was able to do that once with something I bought at Sports Academy's online store.  That was really handy.

@Icegoddess   Yes, you can return items that you buy from Kohl's website to a local store.  It is quite handy.

I remember once I was wearing GV jeans and was in The Gap shopping for jeans. I asked for help from the salesgirl for my size, she said "why are you wearing those jeans, they look like mom jeans"?!  I did buy Gap jeans and retired my GV jeans!

Wow!! How rude of the salesgirl.  I remember going in a Coldwater Creek shop with my mom once and tha saleswoman told me they did6have anything in there for me (I'm 6ft tall). How bloody rude.  She didn't know why I was in there or who I was shopping for!

I don't know where you live but if you ever decide to visit PA, NJ or DE you never have to pay tax on clothing.  DE has no sales tax at all for anything!

@Icegoddess   It depends on the company...yes I have returned lots of times in the store at Chicos & Talbots after purchasing online.

Sounds like my experience when we got a Victoria's Secret store. I walked in looking for a particular style I had seen in the catalogue, so I knew they carried it in an A-cup, but the sales agent pulled out 2 bras that looked pretty much like training bras and said that was all they had in my size.  It just adds to the feelings of inadequacy and that we should be ashamed of our size and therefore should just keep it hidden.

My sisters love & wear GV jeans from Kohl’s. I didn’t like them on me. I wear mostly Levi’s, but I have also worn Lee, Sonoma from Kohl's, and Ralph Lauren (most expensive jean I ever purchased - loved them!) Lots of jeans have more stretch in them than back in the day. Personally, I like a bit of stretch mixed with my denim - more comfortable. I don’t like knit jeans or super skinny stretch jeans that look like leggings.

@MarthaStewardess- I thought the same thing but wasn't going to comment.  But, if a salesclerk said anything like that to me, I'd have told her she just lost a sale and walked out!

If I'm wearing something, it's clearly because I bought what I liked.  The salesgirl in this instance was obviously eager to make a sale, but there are better ways to do it.
