I bought 2 CDs at the local BB. The cashier was eating something that had peanut butter in it (I know because I could smell it), and chatted with his buddy about what he was doing after work while I was at the register. This put me in a mood to start. When I left, I set off the security beeper because the idiot didn't de-magnetized both CDs.
I heard it and just kept walking into the mall. I finally stopped about 50ft away from the store after the guy at the door yelled 'sir, sir..' a million times. I made him come to me instead of walking back to him. I just stood there, gave him the bag with the credit card receipt in it (and an attitude). He walked back to the store, then back to me (still 50 feet away) with the bag after he checked the receipt against the contents.
I then said F* it and went back in (setting off the alarm again) and returned the 2 CDs.
My question is: Did I have to stop at all ? Is setting off the alarm enough of a reason to stop dead and return to the store ?
