I did this.
Stupid Newlook stupid labelled their stupid jeans wrong - I wanted 2 pairs of 32", size 12 jeans. Easy. I tried one on and assumed the other would also fit, glove-like. Couldn't even get the bastards past mid-thigh, despite the tags attached to the jeans proclaiming "12" at me and making me feel obese.

Checked the tag inside, bastards were an 8.

This was two weeks ago, and I haven't gone back to exchange them yet as I am too tight to waste the time and the 80p bus fare.

80p?
I thought you were a student in Manchester? Don't you get a weekly pass, or do you live too close to campus to make it worthwile?

Newlook
are notorious for this. I double check everything in there after buying what was labelled on the hanger as a size 10 top - but when I tried it on at home it turned out to be a 14. For £3.99 I didn't even bother going back to be honest - I gave it to my friend.

Ask around, see if anyone will buy the 8 off you!
