Great idea to leave the reusable bag in the car and then fill it when finished with checking out. At Giant in VA the anti theft device doesn't like customer provided bags in general.
A particularly vile scam is a call on behalf of a grandson who has been arrested in Backwater county and needs some financial help. If the caller ID hadn't identified it as coming from the county prison, I would have jumped at the chance to help out, given my own detention for hitchhiking on the Merritt Parkway in the mid-50s. The studied vagueness of the caller also alerted me to the potential problem but at another less alert time I might have succumbed.
