You are in the bathroom at your favorite place to shop....

OK, so I am in the bathroom at my local mall the other day, just washing my hands at the sink. A woman comes out of a stall and heads over to a sink to wash. I notice that she has toilet paper stuck to one of her sandles. If you were in my shoes, would you tell the woman or let her go off shopping with toilet paper stuck to her sandle?

It really depends. I would tell her if we made eye contact or if I'm feeling chatty. But otherwise I probably wouldn't. Though it is something to keep in mind, I certainly would like it if someone told ME if I was stepping out with toilet paper on my shoe!

See, now that's how I think of it. I absolutely tell people things like that, because I would want the same in return.

normally, i would tell the person. just cause it's a nice thing to do and i'd hope that someone would do it for me. there have been occasions... for example, at a restaurant shortly after my son was born, i had to go into the ladies room to change his diaper. there was no changing table whatsoever in the bathroom. so i was changing his diaper on the only surface could think of... the counter next to the sink. it was particularly messy, and a woman came into the bathroom gave me a look and muttered rude comments as she went into a stall. if she'd come out with toilet paper on her shoe, i would have simply left the bathroom with an amused smile on my face.

I would tell the woman. I would not want to walk through the store that way. I'm sure she would appreciate it also.

I've never had that happen. If it did come up - I would tell her. I would certainly want someone to tell me?

dont be so bad. tell her the real things, beside try to put your self in her shoe. i bet that would be so uncomfortable and not so pleasing not knowing to have a "wings" at your sandle. do the right thing and God will bless you.

Hmmmm....I would probably tell her. It depends on if she was friendly or not though. The people at my local mall tend to look like they would run through you if you look at them or even attempt communication. You know the types right? I'de more than likely tell her though...it's only polite.

I guess it would depend on what kind of mood i was in. lol. most likely I would tell her. but if i was in a funny mood, i might let her go out with it on her shoe. So what DID you do? lol

well its a tossup.... If I wanted to start a conversation it would be a good topic to begin with. On the other hand, the paper is not going to be stuck there for long, either she notices it or it comes off by itsself. Not much of anything to get embarrassed about! So I'd have to say...was she a good-looker?
