Don’t take pictures in H-E-B
I was in an H-E-B store today, taking a picture of their malfunctional checkout lane computer, when a manager told me that I wasn’t allowed to take pictures in the store. I told her I was sorry and put my camera away. It’s curious that I’m not allowed to take pictures in the store, though; what could they be hiding?
If you live in Texas, take your camera into an H-E-B and take pictures; see if you can get thrown out.

You were obviously taking picutres so you could study them and determine the best points for commiting retail theft. What about people with camera phones? Me and my friends have taken pictures at our local grocery store a billion times and they don’t care.
However, that did remind me of the many times I’ve been kicked out of various Radio Shack stores. On their ads they show kids driving the RC cars around while helpful staff members smile and point out various features but in reality if you even look at them too closely they ask you to leave.
