      Typically downtown in big cities, or lower income areas l. I have been in a few stores where the entire health and beauty dept. was behind some kind of case.

        Never seen this at all, having lived in low-income areas of the two biggest cities of austria. So far it seems like a US problem to me.

      I live in midtown manhattan, all the drug stores here have locked up all of the deodorant. Even Irish Spring bars are locked up now lol.

      It doesn’t even work; turns out retails CEOs misrepresented their sources of inventory loss, and random petty theft is a tiny factor.
