"I walked out HMV today..."

And the alarm went off

Everyone looked at me... so I looked back and they looked away :D

Then I gave a look to the person who served me saying:

" Next time take the bloody tag off right or I'll break your face "

Then I walked out... annoyed my friends who work in Sport Soccer... I asked for a size 14 in those Ice Skates... then walked out before they got back.

Then got bus back home.

Once my mate Fos went into the local shop to buy some Bud. The guy put them in the bag, and said "come back soon" or something. So, naturally, my mate walked out with the beer VERY quickly, and hasn't been back since, for fear of being recognised and charged for the bottles (almost two years ago now)

Isn't everyone so orignal and funny :)

LMAO!!

:-D

LOL!

That's all I have to say! After reading that, I started grinning like a cheshire cat! :D

i've had the alarm go off on me when i WENT INTO nike town (oxford street)...
i've left stuff behind in stores before
i've even almost left stores without paying unintentionally of course...once when i was in the newsagents i got up to the counter and they put all my food into a bag...at which point i took the bag and started walking out without realising i hadn't paid LOL...naturally i paid up :D

No security alarm has ever gone off for me. I think its all you guys' punk looks. There is probably a man sat in a room upstairs (or out the back) watching through a video camera, and whenever somebody dodgy goes through the door he presses a big red button and the alarm goes off.

I have however done some very snidey things, including countless numbers of 'exchanges' in GAME, EB, HMV, Virgin, WHSmith and what not. You just say you bought the game there and the person you were giving it to already had it. Then you swap it for summat else. Works a treat.

The funny thing is, who is going to steal something with a tag on? That's just crazy.

A few days ago, my dad bought something got home and found a tag in it. Went back in to get it taken off. Neither time did the alarm go off. Funny that...

I remember the Sport and Soccer Shop Alarm in Chelmsford is always going off. You could so easily thieve something from there with that alarm going off continuously. It happens so regularly most of the time they just ignore it..

It's the shop assistants I don't like. When you need them they are nowhere to be found, and when you don't they are coming up to you asking "Can I help you please?"

I bought some trainers last Friday, took ten minutes to get some assistance, then the shop assistant asked me if I wanted some trainer care gel, that apparently strengthens them and makes them last longer. He just launched into a discussion of how good they were etc.. so I listened (I'm not rude). Didn't say anything then tried on the trainers.

Next thing I know I've gone to the till to pay for them, and the gel is behind the counter with my trainers and it's been tilled up. So I pay an extra three quid for the gel. I thought about complaining, but what the hell it might work..

I have a funny life..

Meh, I have the same thing with one of my shops, but it makes a *bleep* noise whenever someone walks in the shop. Must do some sort of body scan thingymajig.
