Get Ready for a SAFE Holiday Shopping Season


The Holidays are approaching, and that means that
most of us will be doing a little (or a lot) of
shopping for things like gifts and holiday
treats. Here are a few safety tips to make
your shopping experience as
enjoyable as possible!

Limit the number of bags you carry at
once in order to keep at leastone arm free.
Riding (and waiting for) public transportation:
be aware of your surroundings, pickpockets or suspicious persons.
Try to park/walk in well-lit areas.
Do not leave any bags or packages visible in your car;
If you need to leave something in your trunk,
place it there before you park or car,
or re-park your car somewhere else.

Stay tuned for SAFE's Annual Holiday Safety Tips, or visit our website
at www.sfsafe.org to print them out.
