Then here in lies the rub... The sales person. This person feeds off good energy. Sales people have been trained to assume you are stealing. So, instead of treating you like a potential customer, they treat you like a naughty two year old. Behind every, "Hiiiii, may I help you? Are you looking for something in particular?" Big smile with narrow eyes, there is a not so secret, "Hey you I am watching you and your large hand bag." I want to hiss at them every time fourteen of them greet me, "Back off, I want to look around then not buy anything, then leave."

Sales vs. Sales people
I love a good sale. Not to be confused with those women who solely shop sales, or wait outside Wal-Mart just to trample a poor employee. No, I love walking into a store and noticing a 75 dollar pair of jeans on sale for 15. Then I can wear them and people assume I have bought them for full price. That is the mark of a true fashionista, not rubbing in the sale, or looking like you stepped out of Wal-Mart. Urban Outfitters is one ofdollar one is my favorite sale spots, while once in a while I'll throw down 24 dollars for a cotton t-shirt. However most days, the 10 shirt is preferable.
