How Magnet Strip Girl Was Born

I got this sweet deal on a winter jacket last fall at a London Fog outlet store here. I've been wearing it off and on for a few months and love it. Wore it on our trip down to NC and back after Christmas. Today I walk into the local Eckerd's and their alarm goes off. I found that curious. It beeped when I left, too. This afternoon I walked into the Post Office to mail a letter for PE, and their alarm went off. This time I had nothing with me but my jacket and some kleenex and change from the mailing. I apologized to the attendant(a very hip, wisecracking lady) and took off my jacket to investigate what could possibly be making me beep. Lo and behold, there was a small tag the same color as the jacket lining that read "please remove after purchase". I have a mind to leave it there and offer my services to test theft alarms at the local stores. Can't tell ya how many times I've been in and out of Walmart and it never phased their system......
