Here’s some irony for you. Dollar Shave Club and Dave’s were both in the razor section at Safeway and Walgreens today!
But, but, but...I just THOUGHT about accidentally “stealing” an extra bag. I never actually took one.
Was Aziza born in Azusa, CA?
We understand.
If you were not a Trump supporting Deplorable and a patriotic American you’d be fine.
Now they’ll treat you like a former President.
Maybe, but more likely born (or conceived?) in a pizza shop...
She was using the reparations checkout.
Yeah that is ironic, but, dollar shave club was purchased by unilever - a major consumer goods company. So they probably bought it to ‘edge’ their way into the market heavily dominated by Gillette. Unilever then spun it off to some venture capital but still have 35% of it maybe because they have the weight at these major retail companies with all their other brands. The major companies pretty much control 90% the shelf space. It’s widely known inside that these companies collude to divvy up the space. It’s why companies like P&G and JNJ have made agreements to swap their consumer brands and deals like that. They agreed not to compete in various categories. The retailers do have staff that are supposed to decide what products get the space but they are in cahoots with the big brands. DSC made a name for themselves outside the boys club and still needed unilever before they got onto retail shelves.
There are the sensitive soccer moms seeing shoplifter as a poor hungry being, starving and needing nutrition, vs rich greedy company, who can surely afford to feed this poor being.
But, in rich US, there are no such persons.
And, even the kids stealing candy bars are not really a problem.
The problem are professional shoplifters, looking for expensive items, which could be easily resold.
They are amazingly good at their trade and cause enormous damage. No company can afford to be robbed by them in any length of the time!
Something
30 years ago a thief like that would be in the gray bar hotel for a long time
See, she did not steal at all.
She merely underpaid.
