There must be sensors on the product. Our Sobeys cashiers have to
pass meat packages over a de-activator so we don't set off alarms when
we leave the store. Also, I was leaving the parking lot of a new No
Frills store the other day and there was a sign that said their shopping
carts lock if you try to take them from the perimeter of the parking
lot.....Sharon
