Stupid sales people

So I went to a town 45 min from where I live today and bought my girlfriend a jacket! I get home and begin to wrap it and notice that they have left the magnetic security tag on. So now I have a gift that has a security tag on it. I called them immediately and they told me I could drive back down there to do it! But i really don't have the time to do it! Can someone please tell me how I can do it! I need help fast!!

 

uh.......call a retail store close to you and ask them if they will take it off for you. walmart or something like that will probably be able to do it for ya.

 

I plan on that but im worried they will not do it since it is a different size or rules or something! I was hoping i could do it at home!

 

you can do it at home...........but you will probably get a small tear/rip in said jacket. they did the same thing and left one of those things on a hunting jacket i bought one time.......so i kinda just ripped the thing off. you can pry on it with a small flat screwdriver.......it will break loose that way.

 

Problem is that it is a round one and filled with ink!

 

ok....dont screw with that one then man. call walmart and see what they say........................im sure those things are roughly the same size.


*however......i have seen some of those things that i have thought were ink filled...and they werent*

 

Just called them and I was told someone could hopefully get if off tomorrow!!! If not me and Forever 21(the store i got it from) are gonna have a long talk!

 

let us know how it turns out.

 

i know this might not apply for a jacket but you could stick it in the freezer to freeze the ink. it's a shot in the dark but it might work
you can also check out youtube i've seen them remove the alarm tags on there so they might have something like that on there let us know how it goes

 

I found this but I dont think I would try it http://blog.andrewwatters.com/tag/

 

I would do that, but I would rather waste time and gas then ruin a brand new jacket! And its a P coat(not easy to find around christmas time or cheap)

here ya go

 

Yea I have done watched these! I thought about it, but then if i mess up they will prob not give me a new jacket, and I really don't wanna risk it!

 

I just wanna get it off soon! I wish you could do it with a tool! Bit thats to easy! In my opinion if you have a store that is so big you need those things on stuff under 200 dolalrs then you need more security. Or better sales people

 

dont get too mad man................remember they are just people too.............and they are busy as shit this time of year!

 

Yea i definitely understand! Its just a pain to drive back that far for such a simple task lol

 

i agree completely...................thats why i say call walmart and see if they will do it for ya!

 

I wouldnt have walmart take it off they may mess it up themselves atleast the walmart where i live probably would.

 

i use my sidecutters gets it right off

 

me and my dad did it with a button up shirt with some palstic bags on each side, and some how released the pin, good luck
