also yo know those white tags that are stuck to some merchandise. if they are in anyway not compeltely flat on the product, they will not set off an alarm. And if you hold another item against it with the same tag it will not go off, I had a strip of these on me when I was tagging products and i left for lunch, later finding out i had the "security" tags on me. figured out that because they were folded over eachother they would not activate. weird huh...but beware at CC we get paid well for stopping a theft ( at least $250 sometimes)and they do prosecute, so I wouldn't suggest it. they are especially cruel if they catch internal theft, one guy a year ago had managed to steal 5grands worth of laptops. he was caught after someone told the managers who it was. They waited until he was working one day, had 2 police officers come in, arrest him while he was on the clock and in uniform in the middle of the sales floor and promptly fired him on the spot. and obviously charged with a felony.
my friend also told me a story how his grandmother is not allowed to enter walmart near us anymore because she grabbed a comb to comb her grandchilds hair for his picture and accidently with out thinking stuck it in her pocket. she was arrested and banned.
