Nfc tag idea...

[otholi]

So, just a little note. I figured out a really cheap way (free) to get nfc tags. There are certain stores and gas stations that give what they call a "pit pass" it essentially is for a customer rewards system for everytime you buy something you get redeemable points. Well, you can ask for one at these stores (click here to find one near you http://www.pitpassrewards.com/pitpa...3...you know, just the sweetest phone ever...

Idk. To me this seems like asking for water and getting soda at the fountain.

Well, its not breaking any laws and its just dual purpose on something they give you for free. I have one on my keys for the rewards and one in my car phone holder for opening my car dashboard....if its any consolation, I always buy something if im going to get a new one.

Depends on the store, its an anti theft or checkout system.
Just look around at barcodes on diffrent electronics. You might find somthing.

They should either be under barcode, inside dvd case, or somthing of the like.

If you see the magnetic strips, they are 99% proly not using nfc security

No thank you. I don't need to walk an old lady ACROSS the street. I don't see how your comment makes sense anyway. NFC tags are fairly cheap. You shouldn't have to abscond with tags from somewhere else.

Lets not get to heated here...this was just some friendly information I thoight I'd pass on. I also said that they are cheap and if someone is just willing to give me an nfc tag im not gonna tell them no.

You know I did some research but couldn't find anything specific about nfc and store alarm systems...seems they only work with certain frequencies and some use other types of radio or magnetic frequencies...
