Once about ten years ago i was at an Albertsons Grocery and watched a lady of about 500 pounds try to place steaks under her rolls of fat and walk out the door.
She was confronted and started yelling you are just racists, I’m innocent.
About that time some of the meat fell out from her rolls.
I about fell down I was laughing so hard.
The cops came and she was still playing that little racists deal.
Calling Al Sharpton calling Al Sharpton...LOL
My sister was once in grocery store management and she was constantly having to go to court over theft cases. She said they would come in with baggy sweats and those puffy down coats and then fill up with all the meat and cigarettes they could stuff into them.
She said it was comical because they would be so laden with goods they could hardly walk themselves out of the store.
Have you ever seen the bit on Futurama where Bender stuffs about 5 tons of stolen goods under his sweater? Same thing happened...well, except for the racist part.
Was this in Oakland, CA? There was an Albertson’s there that attracted those sort of people. That’s where I saw one guy showing a little boy (his?) how to hide merchandise inside his cargo pants.
