A supermarket in New York City is protecting $6 ice cream cartons with bolted plastic tops to prevent shoplifters from stealing them this summer, the New York Post reported.

The Upper West Side’s Fairway supermarket is protecting its Häagen-Dazs pints with locked lids that can only be removed with a device at the cash register. The theft prevention lids are to “help maintain the lowest possible cost,” according to a sign posted in the market’s freezer section.

Thats because we still prosecuted theft in the 70s and 80s.

New York IS the east coast San Francisco. May not have the poop problem, but they got rats instead.

Joe Biden @JoeBiden · Nov 3, 2020 Are you better off than you were four years ago?

Joe Biden @JoeBiden · Apr 18, 2020 Donald Trump may not like it, but it's his responsibility to step up and return to some semblance of normalcy.

Joe Biden @JoeBiden · Nov 25, 2020 Life is going to return to normal. I promise.

Why not just sharpen the handle of a spoon?

“New York IS the east coast San Francisco”

Interesting equivalence. And which city is the east-coast Los Angeles?

Not just protect the lids. But there was a “teen” tiktok challenge where the little darlings would remove the lids from ide cream cartons, lick the top of the ice cream, replace the lid, then put it back on the shelf. It was just the funniest thing to those nasty little beasts.

An 1100 is a bit easier on the shoulder, especially if you can find one in 20 gauge. A fine autoloader.

Häagen-Dazs? Put the locks on Ben and Jerry’s and other super woke brands. And have the locks at some store where Biden makes a popup ice cream PR visit.
