Have you purchased used lingerie?

No Gravatar

My mom informed me of this special that was on NBC Today – Secret Filth Exposed. There are several videos but this is the one that really caught my attention. They purchased underwear from several well-known stores (Victoria’s Secret, Macy’s, Bloomingdale’s, Gap, etc.) and removed all of the tags and protective stuff, then returned it and surprisingly even though the tags were all removed and they had put dots on the garment tags – the items were put right back on the shelves. Shockingly, this even occurred when there was an obvious stain. You must watch and beware.

Seriously, when you pay that much for lingerie, who knew you should definitely wash before wearing!

    It did gross me out as well and I couldn’t believe how fast the sales people were at re-tagging and hanging those items right back on the shelves. Definitely makes me think and will inspect more carefully in the future.

  • Eewwww. Thanks for sharing that disgusting tidbit. I’ll be a much more vigilant shopper, that’s for sure.

    ew.
    that. is. disgusting.

  • Seeing your kids sledding reminds me of my childhood. I remember those days getting to the tippy, tippy top of our backyard then climbing on an old-fashioned red sled. I personally don’t miss driving in or shoveling snow, but I do hate that my kids are missing the wonders of building snowmen, making snow angels and zipping down a hill on a sled.
