Primark customers are not happy.

Shopping at Primark will be quite different in stores taking part Shopping at Primark is set to be quite different as the brand has announced a surprising new security measure to stop theft. The high street clothing store is known for its cheap prices and the occasional high-end lookalike, however it has experienced a wave of shoplifting recently. The brand is planning to combat the offenders by adding simple blue stickers to bags.

A Primark branch in South East London is trialling the stickers and a worker told The Sun: ‘The thieves would put anything in which didn’t have a tag and wouldn’t set off an alarm. ‘They could blend in with customers because you can only get bags from the checkouts. It was very hard for security guards to spot.’ @Primark absolutely disgusted with this ridiculous policy of using plastic non recyclable stickers on papers bags that now need to be ripped open. So wasteful and unneeded.
