^^^ seconded on the "don't allow anyone to take you to a private room if caught" actually. there have been more than enough reports of physical and sexual assaults it's disgusting.

as for advice- I wouldn't exactly advise you to take yugioh cards from the front of the store/near the registers, all the way to the BACK of the store just to conceal them. or at least, I would suggest grabbing a cart and a few other items on the way back there just to look a little less sus (you could literally ditch the cart in the middle of an isle they wont bat an eye really). as for detagging the boxes, you definitely SHOULD but never just remove the boxes either then you're leaving evidence.

in the future I would suggest THOROUGHLY CHECKING EVERY SINGLE THING YOU HAVE for tags before leaving. inside AND outside of packaging if possible. after concealing for example you could've headed to a bathroom or used a fitting room for purposes of detagging (js don't use bathrooms for concealing). Otherwise you actually did really good. I've watched some people be dumb as absolute fuck in front of me trying to steal before- it's also especially impressive that you left when you did and knew to just keep walking.

Well..not necessarily. Being super anxious about tags can get you caught but depends on exact scenario

never said anything about being "super anxious about tags"- but every tag needs be removed before leaving the store. You want to be invisible as possible from start to finish in most cases.

Really? I question every assumption. Not thinking outside the box or saying "needs" or "has to" is thinking like a law abiding citizen. wink

i mean one could always hold the rfid well above the towers, keeping the towers from going off, but that would also look rather suspicious to hold merchandise out in full view i guess. "wink"? theres also the method of lining one's purse with four layers of aluminum, however if you're caught with this (what is known as a "booster bag") your charge automatically goes up to felony. A criminal would be well off to cover their bases. A beeping tower is among the fastest ways to get caught. Not bothering to take proper precaution is thinking like a cop's next paycheck.

Talking out of your own ass on a forum without actually posting any alternative helpful or critical information for the sake of looking clever is talking like a politician.

Discussing other ways AROUND that specific problem without having to remove tags is thinking outside the box, but i haven't exactly seen you make any suggestions.

Sorry never have I been stopped for towers

Speaking of talking out of your ass where did you get the idea that security towers are a cops next paycheck?
