Answer #1

You know, it might be what you’re wearing, because I’ve sometimes gone in shops and the alarm’s gone off when I’ve not even bought anything!! I think the alarms might be sensitive to certain metals or something. It’s so annoying because everyone always gives me dirty looks..

Answer #2

Sometimes cell phones can set off those alarms.
