I think Ms. Froud is about to be sued into bankruptcy for hurting the feelings of her young customers.
I like it! Littering is one of my top pet peeves.
Good idea! Of course, BO would’ve attached a GPS system to the candy bars to track down the culprit and tax them appropriately.
Now here is an idea that will cut crime better than serializing bullets. A friend lives about 1 Starbucks Medium from a coffee shop, so her front yard and sidewalk collects empty paper cups complete with their little jackets. Littering is illegal, $200 fine, that’s more than running a red light. She picks them up and chucks them in her own trash (I’ve suggested going back to the shop with a month’s worth and dumping them on the floor, but that’s “confrontational and besides it’s not the shop’s fault”)
So if we could have the purchaser’s name printed on the cup at the store, it would greatly cut down on the mess.
I mean, that’s how Arlo Guthrie got busted for littering, they found his name in the trashbag.
Probably should have started with them. Kids who do this usually learned it from watching their parents.
