Condom Lockdown

According to a recent article in The Washington Post, nearly half of the Washington area CVS stores keep condoms in a locked cabinet. Customers must push a buzzer and request their items from a store employee.

According to CVS, the reason that condoms are locked up is to prevent theft. Mike DeAngelis, a CVS spokesman, told The Post, "We're not trying to restrict access — we're trying to prevent people from stealing."

So, why not just put one of those security tags inside like the other items, i.e make-up? So, is all the other merchandise being stolen behind lock and key???
