Odd that.
I almost always get followed by security. The only times I don't is if I am with my girlfriend or somewhere I go regularly. Go figure! Must be my unlicensed narwhal diagnostic kit...

I must look far too honest...

I have never raised any obvious suspicion. I though, am a type to look for trouble, if it can be found. I never use a basket if I can manage without. When with SWMBO we tend to already have some shopping so that, bought elsewhere gets piled in a trolley to be wheeled round with the bags open. I / we have never been challenged.

One large shop we have been to regularly recently, has the tills in the middle of the rather long store and an entrance/ exit at either end. It does have those detector barriers on the doors, but how does that work? I cannot see them having every item alarm tagged.

Security guards tend not to follow me around as I stare at them as I go into the shop,(they always look away first) It's a bad habit I picked up in my yoof and Sophie shouts at me whenever she catches me

I alerted the checkout girl to this and shouted over to the security guy that this woman had just shoplifted.

The (African) security guy didnt even turn round to look where she was.

I find that very strange .

Funnily enough the checkout girl didnt find it strange.

You can draw your own conclusions.

I have !!!.
You should have rugby tackled her into a citizens arrest George, and accidentally knocked out the security guard in the process
