Back in the day when I used to be in retail, here's one I'd do all the time so don't be surprised if it's being done to you.

If a customer kept insisting I check in the back for something they wanted in a different size, I'd go to the back but I'd sit for 5 minutes, drink some water, & maybe talk on the phone before I actually went back out and told the customer that we had nothing in the back.

that reminds me...SHOES....

listen to this....for those that have large feet and cant find shoes..this is what usually happens:

most stores tend to order shoes that sell in common sized....for instance if you wear between a size 6 thru 9 adult...stores will order a large number of those (avg between 8 to 10 pairs for an avge size store) as the sizes go up... the number purchased go down (size 10 thru 12 they order between 4 to 6 pairs) once they get into super large (like mine) sizes 13 and over....the store may order only 2 to 3 pairs.

And of course if you are one of those insistent folks who likes the show so much that u want the display, the shoe that is genarally displayed is most of the time a size 7.5 to a 9.

And some times if you wind up having to get that shoes...u can usually make the store give u a discount citing either a slight discoloration or....if 'others' have tried it on.....wear and tear.
