How much is the potential of loss prevention anyways? I've seen tangible effects in store where certain products are behind glass shelves and you must get permission to purchase one and then it goes in this funky plastic box you take with you to checkout, sometimes right around the corner by the glass cage. I'm assuming theft is growing to have responses like that enacted which are incredibly inconveniencing especially when there's no affiliate nearby. Knowing I'll burn up a bunch of time waiting for one of those lockdowns to be opened I usually order online and pickup in store those items I know are locked up.
