Nope a big corporation harassing people for their failures. They wrongfully harass me they pay. It's that simple.

You need the FBI to hold your hand when you buy your Metamucil, sTuPiD tOm?

NOT according to the stats from the National Retail Federation. NOT according to the CFO of Walgreens.
So according to Fox, right?
Wrong, wrong, everybody is wrong. What I was curious to know is...what happened next? Did the employee ask David Miller if he would testify in court what he saw? Was the employee waiting for his supervisor to arrive? Were the police called? Not much of a followup to what started out to be a mildly interesting story.
Just wondered if something dramatic occured after "He told me...She stole something." That was it? Was there a big screen TV in the woman's shopping cart?
Just curious.

Whoa ! I thought it was just San Francisco and Portland where the theives ruled. But I guess Davey Facebook has got the same problem in Bumfuck, TX. Maybe he needs to vote for someone who doesnt bend over for criminals like the mouthbreathing Republican in charge of his town.
Thanks for sharing

Tom answered correctly. What happened after she left has nothing to do with what she did. All of your questions are redundant to her stealing. My post is not a multi page, detailed of every action post that resulted from her thievery.

Actually, Tom answered like a fucking idiot. Because he is a fucking idiot.
Your post was pointless and stupid, just like everything you shit onto this forum.
Then there is the actual data..
A National Retail Security Survey (NRSS) shows that total shrink in 2021 reported by retailers is now almost a $100 billion problem.
Retailers, on average, saw a 26.5% increase in organized retail crime incidents in 2021. Beyond theft of goods, eight in ten retailers surveyed reported that violence and aggression associated with incidents increased in the past year.
The NRF's latest report, published last week, detailed how organized retail crime is a "perpetual and burgeoning problem" that has inflicted billions in financial losses for U.S. retailers and their communities. "These concerns have grown in recent years, as criminal groups have become more brazen and violent in their tactics and are using new channels to resell stolen goods," NRF CEO Matthew Shay said in the report.
The 2023 survey comes amid growing evidence of the toll increased retail theft, particularly organized retail crime (ORC), is taking on retailers. During the current earnings season, retailers across the board, from Target to Dollar Tree, have raised concerns about growing levels of shrink, citing theft and ORC as key drivers of the issue. Target expects shrink will reduce its profitability this year by more than $500 million year-over year. Locked fragrance cabinets will be in 70% of Ulta Beauty’s stores this year
Like all the other problems in this country the usual suspects here pretend there is no crime

I'm not oblivious to the problems caused by shoplifting. Multiply one store's day's loss X thousands of stores. Lack of prosecution, secondary to the laws making it too much of a problem for the store to apprehend and prosecute. I guess they build it into their insurance, maybe? The employees ARE instructed that the customer cannot be accused until they have exited the store. They can be stopped and searched, but not accused, arrested etc. until they exit. Supposedly can say they intended to pay for the item. Bad policy, IMO. That is certainly on the side of those who will raise the prices by stealing.
We are grown ups. We know we must pay for what we purchase, but the law is on the side of the slippery. Walmart does have a system whereby they are supposed to check shoppers' receipts if there is unbagged merchandise in the cart, which I have all the time. I buy a big package of detergent, coffee, cat litter, etc., there isn't a bag big enough for those and many items. I scan them and leave in the cart. But I also have my receipt in hand, wave it at the 'guards' as I exit the store and I welcome being stopped so they can check that those items are paid for. I WELCOME it. But there aren't enough employees to do that, too many shoppers exiting at one time, lots of reasons it probably doesn't work as well as it should. Sams and Cosco clubs do the same, but I wonder how they can check everybody's ticket so accurately. At least you KNOW that you will be stopped by someone and your ticket/items in cart will be looked at. I'd think that is somewhat of a deterent.
