Do security people ever think you're trying to stash things amid your petticoats?
Nope. In fact, the only store I ever get hassled by security at is the neighborhood Fred Meyer (which is a NW-regional store kinda like Target). The next time I'm there and I see the security guys trying to follow me, I'm going to stop them and say "Guys, shoplifters want to blend in with the other shoppers, not look completely different. Oh, and you need to work on your being stealthy."
the neighborhood Fred Meyer
The last Fred Meyer in Utah closed its doors a couple of years ago. They pulled one of those bait and switch "Going out of Business" sales where they transfer the stuff people might want to other stores and leave the crap under the hopes people will go "But it's cheap!" and buy it.

They're a not-very-nice company. I worked for them for eight years, mom still works for them. My recurring stress dream of hearing "Jillian, cashier please" over a loudspeaker is set at Fred Meyer.
I just had one of those Moments: I was literally sitting here thinking, "Hmm. I want a snack. I could go buy one. Is there any reason I have to go to Sue's office? She always has candy..." when my boss came over to ask me to go to Sue's office for something. Score.
We have 3000 Melon Pops in our office.
What are Melon Pops and why do you need 3000 of them?
Our office is melon popless.
Oh man, I wish I had 3000 Melon Pops, and I don't even know what they are.
My melons have all been popped.
OK, that sounds weird.
Melon pops are these wierd melon ice cream flavored treats. We have them because we had a tenant event last week and people went for the Dove Bars and Klondike bars instead of these so now, we have them in our office freezers and I don't have anywhere to put my lunches.
