      Why bother going through the checkout at all, the fastest way out is straight through the door. Unrelated, the weather is changing so I’m thinking of buying a really big coat, and I’ll want pockets for my keys and other essentials.

      I don’t know where you live but here theft is a crime and very antisocial and despicable.

      Someone has to pay for the thieves and prices rise because they have to compensate for theft. Even if prices in reality do not need to compensate, because margin is already big enough, it gives retail a free card to jack prices, which, in essence, is yet again against consumers.

        I genuinely can’t tell if you’re being facetious.

        I thought you were fully serious, but then I hit the line

        Even if prices in reality do not need to compensate, because margin is already big enough, it gives retail a free card to jack prices,

        And assumed you were just poking fun and the poor widdle corporations and their giant profit margins, but then you continued with your paragrap, and now I’m not sure again…

          But maybe you can explain where all the downvotes come from, because I don’t understand.

          Is thievery good? Only when thieving from companies? Is is socially acceptable to take what is not yours from others? Only from companies? Or from a stranger who has more than you? From a friend? What’s this all about?

          No, I’m serious in all statements. Corpos will jack prices on any occassion that offers itself, so keep the number of those low.

        I don’t know where YOU live but Walmart is one of the biggest thieves in the USA. People working there still have to collect government assistance because they pay too little to live on.
