Loud music in Hollister and Ambercrombie and Fitch is supposed to attract customers?

| We routinely run out of those stores sooner than we expect to because of the noise (Montgomery Mall). Am I the only one who can't take it? Even my teenagers think it ridiculous. |

| OMG! My DD talked me into going there about 6 months ago. We also ran out within minutes. I know that the music has to be above legal OSHA limits. Maye they should be reported. I would never let my kid work there. Of course, kids are going to listen to loud music but to be exposed to this on the job seems criminal. |

| Just think of the poor schmucks who have to work there on an 8-hour shift. |

Can Hollister please turn on the freakin lights?
I guess the darkness appeals to the vampire obssesed teens today |

| I've read that the purpose of the loud music is not to attract but repel certain customers, ie parents or anyone old/not of their demographic. |

| Is A&F the store that reeks of cologne when you walk by? I can't barely stand it outside of the store, so I don't understand how people actually go in there. And do they just spray that stuff into the air? Toxic. |

I dont know but that certainly describes Sephora. I just hold my nose, run in, get what I need, and run back out. |

| They don't want people our age wearing their clothes and ruining the brand. The music helps to keep it that way. |

| Also the people that look for clothes there get befuddled by the darkness and decibels and end up buying more. |

My 13 year old could not take it. |

Sephora is a perfume and cosmetics store. What do you expect it to smell like? |

They might think that makes her uncool and not worthy of wearing their brand. Hate, hate, hate the arrogance of this company. Also, I remember when they had the "incident" with their catalog several years ago (it got pulled b/c it was pornographic..and some of the model were under age) AND they were selling thong underwear to young girls. |

| It must be like this in all the malls because I notice it in the Dulles Town Center also, just walking by turns me away from going in there. |
