Took me 3 hours to find a stud behind my bathroom tile because I kept hitting a pipe

Bought a cheap stud finder from Home Depot and it kept going off on the pex tubing behind the shower wall, wasted a whole Saturday afternoon before my dad told me to just use a magnet. Has anyone else had a stud finder betray them like that?

@claire999 nailed it, same thing happened to me with a gas line behind drywall.

Magnet trick is a lifesaver, never buying another cheap stud finder again.
