Who caught a guy trying to lift about 20 bottles of hand lotion hidden under a few cans of beer while only paying for 1 frozen pizza.
And just told him to go away, didn’t bother any managers or anyone else with it.
According to what i overheard he’s always in there trying to pull something like that.
Better luck next time buddy. I think if you give them a bit more plausible deniability they’ll let you go by.
they could be doing the walmart thing where they monitor it until it’s a felony
I did the math, if we value filling a random cup with soda without paying for it, assume it’s a $3 theft (huge overestimation of avg cost in my area), then consider the statute of limitations and minimum dollar amount (on the lower end) for my state, plus my rate of five finger discounted refills, if it were even possible to detect that all of my refills were not paid for and it could be tracked across all my pillagables, by the time I reach the minimum dollar amount for a misdemeanor, the oldest events had already expired via statute of limitations.
