Here is some information on the tags I found in my jeans.
Shoplifting Tags
Upon looking inside the rented DVD's they have the exact same type of tags.
Oddly enough they say "Be Kind Please Rewind", no joke!
I can just imagine walking into Old Navy with those same jeans on and the alarm going off, that would be bad. Sir, were is the receipt for those jeans you have on?
I am also curious as to how the tag became reactivated?
Did I get to close to a scanner/enabler when checking out?
If it did become enabled inside a store, apparently it did not set off the alarm.
