they dont allow purses when you want to try something on? I think small purses are fine, so ladies should stop carrying bag lady bags.
and shop at better places, first they are usually more civilized about allowing you to take your handbag with you, and if not, you can leave that at the chckout or with security.
I mean what would you do if you had to go shopping alone?
just pull out your wallet of the bag and go.
no charge for the advice. enjoy life,
