It seems, alot of places seem to be keeping a closer watch on people... I haven't seen any numbers to support it, but i bet alot of buisness are getting hit, tough times make people do funny things... I always tell the clerk to put the reciept in the bag... bottom line is, as embarrasing as it may be at the moment, the "overzealous" clerk/watchdog is just watching out for everyones interest... high theft= high prices.... theft loss will be passed on to the ( paying) customer...
