Retail store Target is facing a growing problem with the theft of certain products.
Below, we present the 10 items that most frequently disappear from your shelves.
1. Toys
Toys, especially smaller and more expensive ones, are one of the main targets for thieves.
This is because they are easy to hide and have a high value, making them very attractive to steal.
2. Razors
Razors are stolen a lot because they are expensive and small. For this reason, in many Target stores they keep them behind security display cases.
3. Electronics
While large items like video game consoles and televisions are difficult to steal, thieves focus on smaller video game and headset products, which have a high value on the secondary market.
4. Meat
In the grocery section, meat is a popular target due to its high cost, especially certain cuts.
5. Printer ink
Printer ink cartridges, despite their size, have a high price, making them an attractive target for thieves.
For example, an ink combo at Target costs $34.99, similar to the price at other retailers.
6. Cosmetics
Cosmetics, such as lipsticks and mascaras, are easy to hide and steal due to their compact design and lack of strict security measures.
7. Baby formula
Baby formula is expensive and essential for many families. The lack of economic resources leads some parents to steal this product to feed their children.
