I work in the alarm industry and I go into literly 1000's of places with my equipment. I was in an Auto Zone not to long ago and my 10 year old drill kit (that I might add has been in this store before) set off their stupid shoplifting alarm. Sometimes it's not you it's the equipment.
Then there was the time I bought my son a new pair of work boots, at Kmart, they deactivated the tag (I was there), went through the system and nothing happened. Then every store he went into for 2 months he was setting off their equipment, coming and going. Finally got tired of the problem (doesn't look goo dfor the security company employee to set those things off all the time. Went to my local Auto zone (yes I spend alot of time in there) and ask the mgr to help find what was causing the problem. Told me to have him take his shoes off and toss them through the "gate" and sure enough it set them off, he deactivated them and no more problems, ever.
I wonder if different stores have different tags and some manufactures put both of them in the same article since both places buy the same stuff?
