How do you take off one of those magnet things on clothes that set off alarms at store?

Question

Today I went to the mall and they forgot to take it off, but the alarm didn't go off so I guess i really didn't notice until I got home. Is there an easier way to take it off besides going all the way back to the mall?

Answer 1

They're really tough.  Easiest way? Go back to the store... uh... with your receipt.  :-)

Answer 2

shop lift much? :)

Answer 3

what do you mean YOU fogot to take it off its not your job to take it off it's the Cashiers job...

i work at Hollister and basically the only way that you can do that safely w/out ruining the clothing is to take it back....it only takes like 2 seconds.

Answer 4

hehe i agree,nice cover up story.

Answer 5

Answer 6

nope.  bring the "receipt" back to the store and have it removed.

Answer 7

haha, exactly. Everyone knows you stole it. Just say it haha. But really don't smash it because it quirts ink. If you Steal alot. Then just by the machine that takes them off. Easy as pie!

GO SHOPLIFTERS! (im probably gonna be watched by the cops now...)

Much love,

Answer 8

Sneaky, sneaky you.  

Answer 9

it depends

if its one of those cheap flimsy ones, you can just get it off with pliers

if its one of those big ink filled ones, get one of those magnet things that take it off.

orrr

just take it back to the store with the receipt and ask them to take it off

Answer 10

if you cut off or something it will spit ink out and stain whatever it is you bought. I'd say just go back to the mall. unless your lying and got a five finger discount, then just cut it and wish for the best.

good luck
