The moral of the story seems to be not to ask, not to be polite. Just do it. Same as in your post. It's very sad.<BR/>I'm glad you took a picture and shared it. I once wanted to buy a library book nobody had checked out in ten years and when I asked, the library wouldn't let me. I think that they threw it away soon after. If I had said I lost the book, I would own it now. Why do they do that to us?<BR/>Fantastic post.Phyllis Hunt McGowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13370730851612587650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-625563277617720888.post-74970588259868205822008-03-14T12:35:00.000-05:002008-03-14T12:35:00.000-05:00Wow -- I never knew that.

I confess that often I ask, especially if it's a small store or something that's really arty (because I've tried that before on arty stuff and been chastised) but no one has ever turned me down in a "regular" store. In fact, I'd think they'd feel flattered! I have (and this is actually legit, when I've been writing an article) told them I'm taking pictures for a feature on whatever and that's fine. I like Toni's ideas, too! Oh, this must makes me mad! I'm glad you went back and shot the tree!Jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17482528482559445943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-625563277617720888.post-6605628468100333892008-03-14T10:08:00.000-05:002008-03-14T10:08:00.000-05:00Beth, it was your idea, they stole it from you and...Beth, it was your idea, they stole it from you and didn't ask YOUR permission! What a stoooopid policy, and no manager in her right corporate mind would ever say 'verbal' policy. I take pictures where I want, although I'm with Lisa-- I always have my Mata Hari disguise on and my MuthaCam is usually peeking out from under an armpit or some such. The other thing that tends to work in higher end stores is to say you're scouting a baby shower (or wedding, or anniversary) gift that a group of you are going in on, and you need pictures to 'send to the girls' so they can decide which they prefer. Since I actually do a lot of group gift giving at the office, I don't feel like I'm tale-telling ... & last but not least is that I tell the manager I'm taking a photography class (also true) and where ELSE will I be able to shoot photos of exotic vegetables except at the Chinese market?

Who knew I was a "corporate policy" law breaker?! I take pics in stores all the time (although I have to admit, I'm VERY sneaky when I do so!)
