I went to Eddie Bauer

I went to Eddie Bauer today to return a belt. It started separating itself into two layers. Lately I've been looking at my khakis over on my nightstand tables, only seeing two, and swearing to myself that I must have bought three. But I've been wearing my cords lately, no khakis. So I figured I must have only bought two. Anyway, while at Eddie Bauer I asked them to tell me how many pairs of pants were on my receipt, because I can't make any sense out of their little codes. They said five, I said, "Huh, I could've sworn I only came home with four." So they said, "Oh! Well, let's just give you another one!" No questions, no anything. So I got another pair and brought it home, checked my closet, and there of course was my third pair of khakis, hanging in the closet as it has been all along. Sigh. I guess I will take them back.

What is annoying is that I tried them on today at the store to make sure I got the right size, and the 33-inch waist felt most comfortable. The pair I bought before Christmas was a 32-inch waist. argh! Posted by Curt at January 8, 2002 03:51 PM
