It is really best every month to check your credit card transactions every few weeks and maybe even more. Aldi's grocery store had an electronic device attached to the swipe machine stealing your credit card number and you didn't even know until it was too late. The awful thing about this type of stealing is it cannot be detected immediately.
After 3 months and 1,100 stores the amount of victims was very numerous. Until credit cared statements are read by the consumer then reported it
still takes the credit card company time to find the source. Meanwhile
you are a victim of credit card theft which takes you time to repair all
the problems the thief has created for you. For more information: Identity Theft Hits a Grocery Store.
This is the lowest, meanest and lowlife of thievery. Stealing from others is one of the 10 commandments first and foremost. The prices of everything must increase in the long run and the consumer and thief will pay for it in the long run.
It has been suggested that plastic it is the safest way to shop as long as you can pay off the full balance. It seems that as soon as you think you are safe the thief stays one step ahead of you. It's too bad that thief's don't use their energy to do the right thing. Using cash is not safe either as people can rob you but at least you don't have to prove who you are when they steal your identity.
Taking a picture with their camera phone of your card is done after you hand the waiter or waitress. Many restaurants take your card and being a little old fashioned this panics me as the new plastic generation snickers when I watch their every move if possible. Better to be careful and safe then a victim of identity theft.

Customer review and impact on purchasing the product
By typing in the words best sellers on Amazon I was surprised with the results. This article is a test to see if this product really is a best seller of Amazon customers. I am going to show you the top 5 products and see if you are interested these products. The first product is The Fat Flush Plan
which is to be the best selling book about losing weight from Amazon.
Orka Deos Stainless Steel Soap. Here is the link and image for product #2 as this amazed me to go a step further and see what it was. Apparently this product is to remove odors and smells from your hand such as garlic or fish.
According to the reviews I saw they both agreed it was a good paperweight and great decorative item but there were as many positives as negative reviews. The positive review decided it worked well at removing a variety of odors for them and said it looked great on the wall.
One review said they gave it a fair chance by trying to remove as many different odors as they could. They decided it is was better used as a paperweight verses an odor remover. Do you read product reviews before you purchase an item that is unusual?
The #3 product that was a best seller is the Back to Basics Egg-and-Muffin Toaster. The link is Back to Basics TEM4500 4-Slot Egg-and-Muffin Toaster
. Out of 188 reviews there were 158 people that gave it a 4 to 5 star rating. The common thing the reviews shared were that it did what it was suppose to do. The scariest reason was a customer that felt the smell of the oven itself was overwhelming and attributed this to the MADE IN CHINA label which made them "a tad nervous" in there own words.
Product #3 is the Hitachi Cordless Drill and Driver Kit. I am giving you the link and the picture to experiment is this makes any difference to searching the site for the product. 
It had a 110 reviews and out of this 83 people gave it a 4 to 5 star rating. They both said it had a good torque but housing was cheap plastic, broke easily and did not fit well on a carpenters belt. Guarantee was faulty.
The next best selling product is #4 is Baby Einstein Take Away Tunes. How could you lose with a product that was made with Einstein in the name. Here is just the link as I want to see how interested you are to seek out the looks and style of the product. Baby Einstein Take Along Tunes
had 572 reviews and 526 people gave this a 4 to 5 star rating. Only 14 people gave this a 1 which I thought very interesting. The average opinion is it had good quality non-electronic sound but they were not long enough to hold the attention of a child age 1 that could push the buttons. A consensus in longer tunes would make this a great product. For less than $10 what do we expect?
Product #5 is my pick of products as the results came out to be over 200,000 choices. This product is expensive but being a nice Swiss Army Man's watch with Dive Master Black Dial I wanted to test quality and price to how the consumer selects a product. Here is the link and the picture as I want you to see a watch that costs over $600 dollars. 
With only 4 customer reviews and the original price being over $1000 I take that not many people buy or wear a watch like this. It is said to be like a top of the line Rolex watch. The customer reviews recommend a plastic band due to the weight of a Quartz watch. But they feel this is an unsurpassed value and even though it is not COSC certified which means it accuracy for time is within chronometers. If you need accuracy within a chronometer this watch will not fail you.
Help me with this experiment and let me know what moves you to search deeper about a specific product. This will make a great article and help me know how advertising works in the on-line world. Leave a quick comment about it you read at all or if you just skipped through or of it compelled you to check out a product. To become a good affiliate is a process and the difference between success and failure on-line.
