Forget all the H&M shenanigans, there's a Crazy Eddie tribute site?! Woah! (insert comment here about it being "insaaaane").

So let me get this straight. You waited two hours for clothes. Then you bought clothes that didn't fit you. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense....

You have 30 days to return with full money back with receipt. It was so ridiculous that people considered trying this stuff on because it just caused more chaos. As soon as the "body guard" like stocker came out with 2 items girls would dive to snatch them- they were desperate. I documented this experience because I don't think my mom would believe me if I tried to explain. At one point, I made my poor (sweet) husband come all the way uptown to help me.

What surprises me is that people actually tried stuff on - was there a no-return policy?

I survived the mayhem. It was really crazy. I waited for 2 hours last night for them to unpack amd unload their last shipment at 51st and 5th. Hundreds and hundreds of women pushed and shoved to grab anything. The trick was to make some friends and help each other. I got some really cool stuff but of course none of it fits. Too bad. If anyone is interested you can email me :)
