Safe shopping tips
• Don't leave things in full view in your car, even if doors are locked. Put gifts in the trunk.
• Instead of one long shopping trip, consider making several smaller trips to cut the number of packages you'll be toting.
• Women should carry purses in front of their bodies. Men should keep wallets in breast pockets.
• Avoid shopping alone, especially at night.
• Park in well-lit areas.
• Let someone at home know where you're going and when you'll be back.
• Avoid shopping during the regular end-of-business-day rush hour.
• When going to your car, have your keys out and ready. Don't stand in the parking lot fumbling in your purse.
• When possible, don't use the ATM alone.
• Don't flash large sums of money, and keep track of credit cards. Keep receipts together in a safe place.
• Trust your intuition. If you sense something is wrong, alert police or store security.
