how many times can you go to SAKS or KLEINFELDS?

Hi ladies
I was wondering if any of you have had any experiences with going to these stores a few times without buying. I've only been to each of them once - in the winter. Now that I'm almost ready to buy - I want to go to each of them again with my sisters and friends without really intending to buy. I kinda want to narrow the search at each of them, and then bring my mom back. But I 've heard that certain stores get annoyed when you keep coming and don't buy.
anyone have any comments???
thanks

i know what you mean especially those particular stores BUT if you don't feel funny doing it than i wouldn't worry about it....besides it isn't them who are spending thousands on a wedding dress!

i would try to go back only one more time to each...

can you go to other places to narrow down the search? then when you go back you will know which will be 'the one'?

Do you think they will even remember it was you b/c it was a long time ago? Can you play dumb, like you have never been? As long as you do not feel bad, and walk in with head high, they will have a hard time giving you a hard time. Go for it!!

They may have a card on file with your name, but that shouldn't bother you. Considering the cost of these gowns. it may take a few visits to find the right gown. They don't need to know you aren't seriously shopping when you go in.
Just for your information, my husband has a shoe store. You should see what women do just for a $100 pair of shoes! It's your money, your day! Don't let them intimidate you. You can tell them you'll buy something when you find it. It's that simple.
Good luck.
