I guess I'm just a cranky sob, but I always refuse. The one time they wanted to detain me, I offered to call the police on my cellphone for them. My wife was detained once for picking up a pair of sunglasses on one display and setting them down in another. Store detectives only saw the first event. Same response from me, put up or shut up. You call the police, I'll call the police, or we walk out of here ... your choice. They always back down.
