“steel underwear”? I understand that was popular in Medieval Times.

This will only lead to an epidemic of panty raids at Harvard.

The Walmart here has their spray paint cans locked down. I was told the reason was that certain customers would pick a can off the shelf and go around spraying things.

Decline of Western civilization. Too many people have no sense of honor whatsoever.

Changing to membership store-pay 20.00 to join- get id card with photo-name, etc—scan card to gain entry. Unlock the shelves.

Amazon lists drop off locations near you and can pick up on your way home.

There are several versions of lockable boxes you can purchase now.

I do not need to where I live, but there are lots of options available.

Better lock up pants, for those who do not wear underwear.

Any thoughts on how much shoplifting has contributed to consumer price inflation?

I’d venture it has doubled or more on prices on high-theft items, especially at grocery stores.
