Quote: "I'd be telling them to leave me alone"
I briefly considered it but decided it would be more trouble than it's worth. I only would have said something if they had tried to say we had stolen something, in which case they could have a law suit on their hands because I could sue them for defamation of character for even accusing me of shoplifting.
My theory as to why they were watching us so much is that maybe I look like someone who has shoplifted there before, and they thought he was back to pick up some more goods? I know I have a doppelganger in town, he must be a troublemaker!

Radio Shack - Jaycar Electronics. Most towns have at least a small authorised Jaycar stockist.
Office Max - Officeworks.
Best Buy - Dick Smith or JB Hi-Fi."
Kmart is probably the closest, or whatever other store you have that sells some of everything. Honestly, I HATE going to Walmart, but sometimes it is worth it. This, however, was not one of those times.
Radio Shack is actually in huge danger of bankruptcy, they are largely overpriced and irrelevant anymore thanks to most towns having Best Buys or other electronics stores.
Office Max is a pain in the butt as no employee there ever knows what they're talking about. I went in to ask for an ethernet switch hub (sometimes known as a splitter) and they just looked at me like I didn't know what I was talking about. When I repeated the question they finally just said "Well we've never carried anything like that, it doesn't sound like something we carry", I got so mad at their ineptitude I just left.
And now Best Buy thinks I'm a shoplifter so we'll see if I continue to like them or not.
haha nah, I still like going there to check out gaming stuff. They have an EVGA 4GB GTX 970 for $380 I noticed, I might pick one of those up (or two to SLI them) by the end of the year to upgrade my PC.
