so soon

i was at shopwise last night to buy my food for this november 2 holiday.  i saw this nice pair of shorts, tried it on, then suddenly felt a sharp sting  ->  a loose steel button has rubbed against my thigh piercing the skin and giving me a cut 4 1/2 inches long!  (yup, i measured!).  i really hope the cut does not scar.  i decided right away not to buy the item.  i don't want to acquire something that hurts me so early...
