Literally never happened to me, which makes me question the validity of both "a lot of the clothing you buy has RFID in tags sewn into the item" and "if you don't ... remove these tags, you find that they will set off the exit/entry scanner at various stores"

Maybe, it is due to me being in Australia and buying my stuff from Big W and Target.

I can't say I've ever seen an RFID tag sewn into clothes in either of those two shops - however I don't shop there too often.

I've seen the tamper proof clips

and the RFID in the tags
