and . . in answer to am*3's question on a previous post asking how many people here have seen a shop assistant looking through someone's (less than A4 size) purse/bag . . . . I have, I saw it today at a Big W store . . and it wasn't just looking, it was a full-on hands-on and hands-in rifling through the contents.
Ok, so a question of my own to all here . . . How many of you would feel too uncomfortable to refuse to open your bags for the shop-assistant when asked?
Not moi. I know what consumers' and traders' rights and responsibilities are (used to be my job)
I understand I can refuse. I understand the consequences. I choose to agree with the Conditions of Entry. I understand why they exist, I do not consider that to be any form of oppression. Common sense.
Why would anyone want to refuse to comply knowing they enter the shop under licence? Just because they can? That's it, isn't it?
