Default Why did you steal that!?

Went to Mart of Wal for a vacuum (lots of research, went with Shark). I had a 2-page print-out with vacuum information, my notes on the different brands, and my shopping list. I had it in the seat of my cart. I went to get an item and bring it to the cart and can you believe someone stole my shopping list? Wasn't on the floor and was actually under another item, so it's not like it blew away. Just... weird.

People will take anything. Literally. My sister once lost a glove in a store...went back within a couple of minutes...it was gone. Not at any of the checkouts, the office or the floor. It was right before the store closed. Only conclusion we could come to was, someone picked it up and kept it. ONE glove.

I can't tell you how many times we have to mark down packages of underwear because someone stole one] pair.

Happens a lot in my shop. Mostly with multi packs of little girls' or boys' underwear.

Often we find a pair of wet ones lying next to the pack....

Gross...and I thought finding the diapers around a store was bad. Why some people think that's acceptable need to be smacked. Too bad stores can't have an employee wander around with a rolled up newspaper, catching customers leaving trash/nasty stuff and then *smack!* "No! Bad Customer!"

Rub their nose in it.

Sorry.

It's just..... the thieving of the one pair would be annoying enough, but leaving the old wet pair for us to dispose of? Just adds insult to injury.

You never know. Maybe the thief needed a shopping list and thought yours would do?

They probably stole that after stealing one anti-diarrhea pill, which has happened at my store.
