dont forget the tech either, i dont know how reliable this is, but seems like it would be something i would look in on if times ever got tough for me

While it is technically possible to scan radio frequencies used by Target's loss prevention (Asset Protection) teams, doing so is generally discouraged and comes with significant legal risks.Discussions on Reddit (such as on the r/lossprevention and r/amateurradio communities) highlight the following key points:Frequency Types: Target and other large retailers primarily use business-band UHF radios for internal communications, with known frequencies and configurations documented on RadioReference Wiki.Legal and Policy Risks: While merely listening to unencrypted store radio channels may not be explicitly illegal depending on your jurisdiction, attempting to transmit, disrupt, or use those communications to evade security is a federal offense.Corporate Surveillance: Target’s Asset Protection team relies heavily on sophisticated camera networks, floor monitoring, and centralized tracking. They often track habitual theft over a long period rather than relying strictly on radio chatter to identify suspects
