There were 2 ladies on the desk, when I was there they were asking everyone who was lookin if needed help etc. but when I started looking they both walked away and stood there watching me having a good chat about some guy called marc who worked there and his wife & how they didnt like her, she was stuck up (haha I wasnt ears dropping honest!!) anyway I was there for ages looking, and 3 or 4 couples came whilst I was there adn they went over to help them!! but they did not once ask me!! Anyways made my decision what I wanted went to the till and again they didnt move!! I had to ask to be served, when I said what I wanted she said 'oh that ones £50' yeah I know! urgh really pissed me off just because I look young with 2 kids they think im either going to A steal it or B just being a pikey and using all the testers! really p'd me off I nearly went to complain I was raving!! But felt better as all the other people they stopped to help not one bought but I did HA in your face!! ohh I was mad, still am lol well I must look like a pikey!! |

| I don't get this cos i'm old ( ) I know how you feel though, like when you walking into expensive shops, boutiques etc especially with a pram and you get 'that' look like 'this shop is aimed at the high flyers, not the stay at home frumpy mother type' |

| I would have complained! Who the feck do they think they are? At the end of the day they're shop assistants who's job it is to assist their customers. Cheeky gits, I'd have had to have said something! Write a letter and complain (you might get a nice voucher).

| I know exactly what you mean. I went into a rather expensive shop that sells Candles and other fragrances. Candles start from £13 each!!! I went in A tuesday morning before work so was in black trousers and a plain top all Smiles can I help you etc. I didn't get what I wanted as I didn't get paid until the Thursday. I went back in the Thursday with Rowan in smart casual Clothes and with Rowan and just got dirty looks as if what are you doing In here. I bought 4 candles and they came to over £60. The look on her face when I paid by card it was like she was half expecting me to pull out some crumpled notes. |

I wanted to try on some mat clothes in the sale and the sales assistant was so obviously checking exactly what I was taking in and then hovered round outside to check exactly what I took out, just because I had a pushchair with me! What did she expect in mothercare!! You should complain hun! xx |
