I received a call from my wife who is nearly 10 months pregnant crying on the phone. She told me she was being stalked and had to get out of the store. She later told me she was being stalked by employees at destination maternity. She went there to purchase one thing, and before she could view the selection, the employee picked up the most expensive one (which was the one she did not want) and placed it by the cashier register for checkout. This made my wife feel as though she HAD to purchase the item. When trying on one thing, her fitting room was flooded with numerous things she did not want or need.
She ended up leaving without purchasing anything, due to the stress. She went home and purchased what she needed on Amazon for cheaper and free shipping. It appeared to her they most likely worked on commission. Although friendly and knowledgeable, the employees are obviously pressured to make sales and this burden is unfairly placed on the consumer.
No one should be stressed out when going shopping...especially when pregnant.
