  3. BEFORE YOU SHOP

  4. AVOID CARRYING A PURSE. Use a fanny pack or deep pockets in clothing to carry what you need • Carry small amounts of cash • Carry your keys, cash and credit cards separate from each other and be constantly paying attention to what’s going on around you • Avoid the holiday rush – shop early! This tip may be more effective than the rest of the holiday tips. Shop before the rush starts or during uncrowded.

  5. WHILE SHOPPING

  6. If you have to carry a purse, carry it close to your body and always zipped • Park strategically close to the store is optimum. Park in well-lit areas. • Know exactly where you park your car. Make a mental note or write it down so you will know exactly where to go when you leave the store

  7. AFTER SHOPPING

  8. Leave the mall/store well before closing time. This way, there is greater assurance you will walk out with other people. There is safety in numbers • Avoid shopping until you are exhausted. You are more alert when you are less tired • When hurried or in a crowded shop, make sure you get all forms of I.D. and credit cards returned to you before leaving

  9. Use an escort or mall security if you have too many packages or if you are leaving the store after closing • Check underneath your car as you approach it. This is a common ploy of criminals in parking lots and they will take you be surprise • When going from store to store keep your packages stored out of sight in the trunk of your car
