Since a few days, the buy by appointment it is a reality. Some of the fashion stores that had an area of less than 400 square meters have already opened their doors a few days ago. Little by little more businesses are being incorporated, but all of them with preventive measures.
Therefore, if you are wondering what steps you should follow, what protocol will the stores follow or whether or not you should make an appointment, here we clarify everything. So that you can go more calmly and safely to take that step towards the 'new normal'. Because surely it also encourages us to get a trendy garment. Don't you think?
Buy by appointment, how should I order it?
The most requested stores are always those of the Inditex group. That is why, as we mentioned, they were some of the first to open, as long as they entered those of less than 400 square meters. Well, people wanted to buy, I assure you that and for this reason, despite the uncertainty, customers were arriving. Some with many doubts and it was not for less.
After the alarm state, phase zero begins, phase one ... but what steps should I take? The first of all is to find the closest store. Once this is done then We must write down the phone of the store and call before going to her. You cannot make reservations for previous appointments online, at least not yet. So we will always have the phone to make the appointment, leaving your personal data. It is true that from now on, more establishments will open, but both larger or smaller and outside the mentioned group, it is best to continue betting on making the call and confirming whether we can go or not.
Go to the store on time
Once you have your appointment made, then it will be time to go to the store. For that, you must always be very punctual. Nor should you stop by and be there half an hour before, because surely there will be another client and they will not let you in. For those of us who are extremely punctual, this is our moment. Once there, there is usually a dependent who will make sure that you are that appointment. How could it be less, you will only enter when there is no one inside, as clients.
The security measures that you will find
Before taking the first step, they usually explain that at the entrance you have the hydroalcoholic gel, although you will see it for sure. So you have to apply a little and if you are not wearing gloves, they will give you some in the store. But yes, it is best that you take them and if you can even put the others on top, as usually happens in supermarkets. Otherwise, it will be enough that you clean yourself with the gel. Anyway, the clerks will explain it perfectly, because they will be very attentive. Yes gloves are a must, the mask in this case is also not far behind. So before entering the store you must make sure that you are wearing it and properly wearing it.
Can the garments be touched?
In some stores yes, but not in all. Despite the fact that when we enter we apply the gel, it seems that many businesses prefer to keep this issue a bit more protected. For this reason, many Inditex stores do allow it, but other smaller ones or local businesses do not. I comment on it because I have really seen it and it is something that awaits us in the coming weeks.
What is the maximum time I can be in the store
We are not going to eternalize either. We will always go with a more or less fixed idea. Since we can see the online catalog, go to the store, try the selected garments in our head and buy. In other words, all this has to last half an hour. The 30 minutes is the maximum time that we have, because there are more people waiting, for sure.
Can I try on the clothes I want?
We are in the store, we are going to buy by appointment and we look like the protagonists of a movie because the store is only open to us. It is another way of seeing it and encouraging us, that with which it falls, there is no choice. So, going back to our purchase, yes you can choose the clothes you like and take them to the changing room Or, talk about the shop assistant, so she can do it if she doesn't let us touch the clothes. Instead of three or four testers, one will be open, since we don't need more either. Everything that you are not going to buy will be placed on a separate coat rack, it will not return to the place it occupied for the moment, since the garments have to go through a sanitation process.
