Who can answer this question.
Why would a normal little charity shop with a changing cubicle that is just a curtain keep the curtain tied back on a padlock so if you want to try something on they have to come and unpadlock the curtain then when you've finished padlock!it back up again.
I'm going to bed now Id like an answer by the morning xxx |

Maybe when the curtain is unpadlocked they can press the RECORD button and then press STOP when they lock it again? Maybe I'm too cynical? |

By locking the curtain people can only use the dressing room if they ask. Maybe they are paranoid about thieves and therefore prefer to only allow people to use the dressing room under supervision ((from the outside)? To not lock it would mean people use it freely and also mean the area is not always supervised making them more at risk if theft?

Working for a childrens charity where we have multiple shops around the midlands.. sick and as sad as it it.. there is thefts even in charity shops and people take stuff into the changing rooms to hide. So if the hiding den is monitored less of a hiding place. |

The reason is because it forces you to ask to try something on. It's an anti theft idea.
Basically, people put clothes on then put what they were originally wearing on top of it.
You cannot ask a person to remove clothes in your shop! |

Correct ; freind of mine works in a charity shop near where I used to live.
The level of theft from charity shops is astoundingly high ( much higher than from " normal" clothing shops - she used to work in a " normal " clothes retailer, and was amazed by it... |

They're probably paranoid of theft. |
