Glad you asked...
Many clothing security tags are filled with ink which will ruin a garment if tampered with. If you've purchased an item, but the tag was left on, take the receipt with you when you return to the store. As long as you have your receipt, they should be happy to help.

Then again, this answer might help you...
The easiest way to remove a clothing security tag is to return to the store where you purchased the item with your receipt and have a store associate remove the tag. The stores have special removal devices that easily take the tag off without damaging the clothing. Any attempt to remove the tag at home can result in damage to the clothing. It can also be especially messy if it is an ink filled tag.
