Be Ready to Discard your purse if it is larger than a wristlet!!! Yes, instead of going thru your bag or having you dump the contents into a plastic bag you have to either throw out your handbag or walk it back to the car.
If your purse is expensive or you parked a 1/2 mile away you are out of luck. I realize it is for security but by dumping the contents in plastic and being wanded should be enough.
You are already paying hundreds for the tickets and between $10-20 for parking. What do they do with all the handbags in the garbage? I hope they are at least donated to people in need.
