Century 21 won't let you try on bras
can anyone think of a valid reason why??   
I don't live anywhere near that store and was SO annoyed when I spent 1/2 an hour finding a few bras that I liked in my size, waited on line for 5 minutes for the fitting room - only to be told I can't try them on

Re: Century 21 won't let you try on bras
did you ask for a manager? Can you return them?

That's weird. I would never buy a new brand of bra if I didn't try it on.

wow really? i know in past you cant try on undies (not that I would) but I'm surprised about the bras. Its weird though they let you return either one anyway so you can try them on at home but not there

yes, within 30 days. but I don't live near that store. so annoying!
I was planning to buy at least 2 or 3 bras, but I only bought 1.

Ugh - that's so annoying. I wonder, though, if its just a theft prevention thing. I mean, how easy would it be to try on a bra, and leave the store wearing it under your clothes?

yea, maybe. but when I paid for the 1 bra I bought, the cashier rubbed it on that de-magnetizing thing on the counter.

Hm, ok, then that's just weird! I could never buy a bra that I didn't try on first.

Re: Century 21 won't let you try on bras
ok, I am not nearly as annoyed now. it fits me perfect! 
maybe trying it on over my t-shirt in a low traffic area at the store helped

I do that too. lol not with bras but sometimes i dont want to wait on the long line to get in the fitting room so I just find a mirror and over the clothes it goes.
Michelle-your theory makes sense, but they have those sensor stickers on all items and when you go into the fittingroom the lady in charge of the fittingroom area literally takes all items apart counts everything/separates etc. and when you walk out shes just as cautious.
