A Technology treat....

...and a technological problem.  On Sunday I bought a new purse at Kohl's.  I know, I know, the last thing in the world that I need is another pirse, but I liked the color and the size, it was on sale and it came with an interesting extra.  The extra is a small (credit card sized) chargeable battery that you can carry with you and have handy if you need to recharge your phone.  I seldom have a problem with my phone battery but this little battery might come in handy when I travel.  Unhappily, my nifty new purse also came with a technological trap.  When I started to clip off price and promo tags, I realized that the anti-theft device that was supposed to have been removed when I bought the purse was still attached. So I went back to Kohl's to get it removed. I walked into the store, setting off the alarm, walked over to the counter and explained my problem. Of course I had my receipt with me. The charming young lady at the counter said "Huh, I wonder how that happened?"  I didn't have an answer for her but, since this actually happened to me once before at Kohl's when I bought a rain jacket, I suspect it has something to do with the fact that old ladies are basically invisible.
