Anyone who tries to detain me on suspicion of shoplifting is going to have a REAL bad day. They’d better be up on their martial arts and have a damned good lawyer. and have incontrovertible proof that I swiped something.

Fry's is one of the few things I miss from San Diego. We don't have anything close in Idaho. Ham Radio Outlet is also a "missed" resource. Have to compensate with online orders.

Lets all go over to the judge’s house and steal all of his stuff. After all, he wouldn’t want to embarrass or humiliate us by getting us arrested.

Macy’s is a store for rich folks - just another wealth redistribution scheme.

I work at Macy's. I am amazed at the amount of loss through grab-and-go theft, shoplifting, employees trying to game the exchange process, customers continuously opening up boxed merchandise rendering it unsellable.

Loss prevention is a joke.
