I think a better idea would be to hire a loss prevention person or two. The loss of business as a result of the tacky no purses in the store policy will be devastating, if not already. I was there once soon after the opening and again last week. Seeing that sign before you even get in the door pretty much screams at you to go somewhere else. I took my purse out to my car and am surprised that I decided not to get in it, too and leave. I went back in with just my wallet to satisfy my nail polish addiction. The selection is impressive. I was, eventually, asked if I needed any help but was basically finished at that point. I probably will not go back because the prices were very high and Sally always has a great selection on clearance that differs across stores. I also saw no one in the store, white, black or Asian carrying a purse. I am sure they are equal opportunity haters.
