I'm with you summer. I seem to be washing and wearing a lot more of the same clothes since the lockdown,definitely clothes that are comfortable more than fashionable. Seems the only people who may be interested in what I am wearing are nosey neighbours looking through their upstairs windows.

Re: Can't see this working

You have to move clothes around to find your size or colour you like.
I've had to pick up food items in supermarkets to read ingredients as can't tolerate sweeteners.
If you go to a town to a shop to buy clothes it's often quite a long way from where you live. I think a lot of people won't bother taking clothes back that don't fit.
I'm not going to any town shops until virus has gone for at least a month.

So true, Tess.
Of course you have to touch the clothes, if only to see if they have your size.
I too often look at food ingredients. I also look at cooking advice, storage details, and use by dates.

Bet these stupid rules were made by men who never have to do the shopping! Grrr. . .

Re: Can't see this working

I never, or at least very rarely buy stuff off the internet, mostly on principle, but also because I can't feel the material or try it on, and I can't be arsed sending stuff back. For every item I try on and buy, there have been several that failed the try on test, so it's just not practical. So I will walk around in the nude before I will buy anything that I can't try on....
To be honest, I think some of these rules are just nonsense.

Re: Can't see this working

I can't see that working either & I have already been clothing shopping in Tesco & nothing there was said about not touching items, in fact I didn't even think about that & I picked items up, put them back too, as did my Son & he bought a tee shirt.
