So I'm in the Supermarket the Other day, and I see...

[Betallsports]

I see this old man. About maybe 65-70 years old. And he is walking around the Store with one of those plastic Shopping Bag.
( the ones they put your groceries in )

Anyway, he doesn't have a shopping cart or anything. Just this bag and he sticking stuff in it.

So I'm thinking to myself, is this old man just walking around Shoplifting ??
or is he just putting stuff in a bag and then he will just go up to the register and pay for these things ?

You know, like to save the Earth kind of thing ?

So of course I want to see what he's up to. So I follow him ....
He sticks about 5 items in the bag and I watch as he heads towards the Cash Registers.

Pass the Registers and Out the the Door !

I say let the old folks do whatever they want.

The boosters. At Wal-Mart I saw some lady with a crap load of stuff in the cart just stroll right out with it. No reciept, no bags, nothing .Then I later on read an article about boosters, it's a major problem. It's actually an organized crime.

I take those little washers for hoses from lowes.

put them on my little finger like a pinky ring

 

[RobFunk]

Some funny crap, I mean it's just silly how big of an operation this is. Just imagine everything could be less expensive for us folks willing to pay for their items.

[FONT=trebuchet ms, arial, helvetica]LEO: Oh, they don't care. We all do it.[/FONT]
[FONT=trebuchet ms, arial, helvetica]JERRY: Who, criminals?[/FONT]
[FONT=trebuchet ms, arial, helvetica]LEO: Senior citizens. No big deal.[/FONT]
[FONT=trebuchet ms, arial, helvetica]JERRY: You could get arrested.[/FONT]
[FONT=trebuchet ms, arial, helvetica]LEO: Arrested? Come on! (Goes into a routine explaination for his stealing) I'm an old man. I'm confused! I thought I paid for it. What's my name? Will you take me [/FONT][FONT=trebuchet ms, arial, helvetica]home?[/FONT]

Agreed.

you think Barman ever walked out with a weedeater or a bag of mulch from Home Depot?

Nah, but I hear his poodle stole a squeaky toy from Petsmart.

That is hilarious....because i have one of those Earth bags, and I always love when people give me the looks they do when I did what this old man does (put things in the bag as opposed to grabbing a basket or cart)....I DO NOT pass Go though, and do pay for my goods hno:

Funny...I do the same thing.

But I put them somewhere other than on my finger and they're not like a "pinky" ring, if you know what I mean and I think you do.
