"I walked out HMV today..."

And the alarm went off

Everyone looked at me... so I looked back and they looked away :D

Then I gave a look to the person who served me saying:

" Next time take the bloody tag off right or I'll break your face "

Then I walked out... annoyed my friends who work in Sport Soccer... I asked for a size 14 in those Ice Skates... then walked out before they got back.

Then got bus back home.

Liquid Snake ey, as a noob aswell..... hhhhhmmmmmmm........

GAME ! You traitor !

:-)

aren they supposed to take the tag off

I gave the cashier £20 once for a bottle of Dr. Pepper and left without the change :D Came rushing back in naturally.

What's particulary funny is when the cashier gives you not only the change but the money you paid with as well.

Sheepy may I ask did you walk into HMV, it bothers me deeply.

ROFL!

That really happened to you?

You idiot!

:D

I hate when you go up to a counter, pay for something then forget to actually take your purchase away with you. :P

Like the other day at the cinema, went up, payed £4 for a popcorn and drink, then like a idiot i just walked away. It was only when the woman called and said" don't you want you stuff" did I realise. Everyone in the que laughed. I felt like st.

Dont you just hate it when that happens? No?...

Happens all the time in GAME from people who have just come from HMV. They forget to bloody detag the magnetic strip. Bloody stupid people.

Hmpf.

LOL! My dad does that, well he walks off if they take ages coming back.

:D

I used to work in HMV on Oxford Street, it was incredibly hectic yet needlessly dull, so I walked out. I didn't set any alarms off though, I left through the staff door.

I walked out of a HMV not long ago and set the alarm off. I had a copy of Final Fantasy on (Region 1) DVD with me which I was going to lend a friend when we met up later. They asked me back to the cash desk and I offered to show them my bag of other stuff and the FF disc which had a security tag inside it (damn you Play247!).

Bearing in mind this was several weeks BEFORE IT WAS EVEN RELEASED HERE the staff kept looking at me as if I was a criminal.

Although they were trying to keep things quiet I was answering their questions (how did you get this? where is it from? is it from here? and so on) in an increasingly loud voice to draw as much attention to these events as possible.

I wrote a letter to the store saying how embarassing it all was (to be honest I was loving it!) but I haven't had a reply. Even if I get some vouchers as an apology they'll only bring their rip of prices down to the level that proper shops charge anyway - unless it's one of the rare occasions that they have some decent things in their sale (which was why I was there in the first place).

I hate HMV. Always have. Always will.

They are evil.
