hi all,
Just wondering if anyone else has this problem. Every time I walk into certain stores I set off the alarms even when empty handed.
It has happened when I have no items.
Needless to say it's very embarassing. i had my bag searched yesterday.

I have a titanium pin in my arm and I wonder if this is the cause? I have never set off an airport detector before.

Any security managers out there that could tell me what might be setting it off?
 
sometimes my work badge does it. the strip on the back. happens in brown thomas haha
 
You may be a genius. I went through my handbag, pulled everything out and found one of those on a bottle of foundation, covered by a barcode sticker. I always carry my make up in my bag. Hopefully that solves it.
Cheers.

Had same thing happen me a few years ago, it was a barcode sticker on a bottle of suncream lotion i had in my handbag.
