You would think that you would get a clue and make sure YOURSELF that you had all of your bags.
No excuse to steal.
Well one time they actually gave me an extra bag, by the time I had to drive round trip back to Wasilla of about 22 miles just to return an extra bag of two bottles of Snapple and a couple of candy bars it would have cost me a good chunk in fuel cost, I drive a big Silverado dually and gas is around $3.50 a gallon up here.
Our Walmart has a revolving pedestal, the checker puts your stuff in a bag, turns it and fills another bag, but they don’t always make sure all the bags are off of it, I always give it a spin to make sure, but when they first came out a couple of years ago it was very common to either be a bag short or have someone elses bag.
I do not consiously steal, but with the way things are nowadays I won’t go to any great sacrifice like driving back over 20 miles in -40F temps to take bake less than $10 worth of stuff.
There really is a limit to how far one can reason with something like this. Maybe in the urban lower 48 with good weather, cheap fuel and such a person will just return an item, up here people have to in a lot of places fly EVERYTHING in, fuel, food, toys, mail.
Mistakes happen all the time, you just go with the flow and hope your new item from Amazon doesn’t get shipped to ARK by accident That has happened a lot to me *AK-Alaska, ARK-Arkansas*.
