Now this is funny. It will be even more funny to see how the Arkansas administration and his PR team try to spin their way out of it. Maybe Jeremy simply calculated the value of the goods he took using “New Math.”

Huh? Maybe he was going to pay the difference? Not sure this is stealing. What if he brought $490 to the counter and was going to pay the difference?

Saw the headline yesterday about “Arkansas’ sprinkle”.

Figured it was about Bill Clinton and the oval office sink.

I see this all the time at the grocery store with the EBT cards. But since they don’t have any more cash than they have method skills, they end up digging thru their stuff to select which fat-laden junk food items to give back for credit. He probably figured someone would figure it out for him.

They didn’t just take an item or two off the pile at checkout, to make the numbers comply? Maybe the guy’s not a math major! < /sarc >

There has to be more to the story. How is this shoplifting? You get your stuff,hand over your gift card and pay the difference. People do this all the time.
