It's a MAJOR issue. Most hardware stores now lock them, have cameras, and every time you walk by it makes some obnoxious noise.

- spiderice 5y agoI hate that noise. Especially since they place them on aisles with expensive items, which are the same aisles I end up spending the most time comparing the different tools. Make me feel like I can't move for fear of being beeped at. Makes sense that they do it if shop lifting is as big of a problem as this article suggests.
- mindslight 5y agoI usually flip off those beeping cameras. The store has created an aggressive environment and I'd rather actively recognize that, instead of than trying to pretend otherwise. I understand that theft is a problem, but they shouldn't be taking it out on honest customers. I bet I'm being downvoted by the kind of people who wait in line to exit a store.
