i was putting the last accoutrements on the t&b when this price label infuriated me coz the label is stuck and had a hard time removing all that is left when the label was peeled (by a knife.)

of all the places naman talaga! pwede naman sana sa likod na lang nilagay yung label ng mga promodizer na yan!!!!

major major grrr!!!!

i was thinking to use the 3M sticker glue remover but fearing its xylene based its going to melt the plastic!

another grr!!!

Re: rant and rave part 2!

buti nga ganun lang Doc eh, imagine mo dito sa cebu, lahat ng sabon na binebenta nila hindi bumubula... luma o passe na yata yung mga yun... kahit bago lalagyan ng sabon, kahit galing pa sa sm, di talaga bumubula...

Re: rant and rave part 2!

or you could use 3M's adhesive and wax remover.
@ JayL, where are these goo gones available back home? tia

Safety first - always wear face/eye/ear/hand protection as a minimum.

Pwede rin pencil eraser. The Staedtler types na smooth, not the gray ones (Rabbit?) that contain abrasives.

Re: rant and rave part 2!

Have always maintained that should be forced to remove the labels, tape, wrapping, etc. on the items that they sell. If they were forced to experience what the customer experiences, they might get their underlings to do something about it.

e.g., Henry Sy, Socorro Ramos (National Bookstore), etc.

On the other hand, if price tags were easy to remove, there would less deterrent to crime (customers switching tags). So if tags are intentionally hard to remove for cultural reasons, that part of the problem may be understandable.

Store people also seem to have a tendency to stick price tags directly over important info on the product label.

But these pale in comparison to what gets unleashed when I am told that it is 'not allowed' to record the prices on (publicly visible) price tags. Another 'only in the Philippines'? Thankfully, this nonsense does not happen often, but it does happen.
