Tesco introduces security tags on shopping baskets to combat food theft during the cost-of-living crisis.

Tesco has introduced security tags on shopping baskets in response to rising food theft incidents during the cost-of-living crisis. The move follows a "nightclub-style door policy" at a Bristol branch where customers were checked on CCTV before entering. This new measure aims to deter people from stealing, as Tesco stores have already begun security tagging items like milk, butter, meat, and chocolate bars.
