    My mum recently bought a jumper from Tesco, tag was left on but alarms didn't go off. When she took it back a week later she was accused of haveing stolen it by a very rude sales assistant. When she showed her receipt to the manager he offered her £30 gift voucher as an apology, but how rude?!

    I would have taken the pliers to the boyfriend who noticed but said nothing as he thought it was funny! What goes on inside their heads...?

    Magnet tags are easy to break off with a pair of pliers. You have to be careful with ink tags but they are fairly easy to remove too.

    My Grandad brought a shirt all the way back from Australia with the tag still on it! We used a strong magnet to remove that..couldn't take that all the way back
