we've been getting hit hard by thieves recently, especially in audio. audio used to be tucked away in a corner near bargain, so when i took over bargain i would find almost a dozen security tags a shift. we've since moved it, but being near the main aisle has done nothing to deter our thieves. i'd find a tag here and there, nothing to get too upset about. but then there was sunday. oh, sunday, thou shalt live in infamy and go down in history as the day that B&NG found 88 security tags.
audio is on the outside wall, while kids is on the inside. i was on the inside cleaning up in kids when i noticed that some books were standing funny. i walked over and damn near had a heart attack. i gathered all the tags up (i had to get a bag, there were so many) and brought them to management's attention.
something like this doesn't happen in one night (or i hope not. you'd need a shopping cart to carry all that product) so we figured it had to be over a few days. i was in the department for maybe five minutes and that's the first thing i see. you mean to tell me the woman that runs childrens area and the four other people that are regularly scheduled back there never noticed that? way to keep an eye peeled.
that's about $3000 in loss right there.
