The linked video says this short film on shoplifting was made in 1975 but it actually looks like it was made in the 1960s.
Shoplifting...this is when people walk into a store and take thing without paying for them. Shoppers beware.
Hee-larious! ...But I can believe 1975.
The modern day versions of shoplifting have turned it into an artform

When I was about seven I stole a dog whistle from the local mom and pop grocery store. We didn’t even have a dog! So not only did I feel guilty I couldn’t even tell if the damn thing worked.
I agree, the clothes, cars, products, appears to have been made around 1965 or so when I was a teenager.
Hope that was an extension cord...
100% Agreed. Circa 1964 or ‘65.

Around the 18 minute mark, you see a 1960s version of a Karen.

No long hair on men or bell bottoms to be seen, and you would have been hard pressed to find a Dave Clark Five record in the album section 1975.
With the store policies now they just walk out with it. My daughter works at a store and was watching a shady character and called for backup.
He walked out of the store with a cart loaded with stuff. She caught up to him and asked to see a receipt.
“Oh - I threw it away as soon as I left the store.”
“Oh, that’s okay sir. I can check it on the register if you’ll come back with me.”
By that time the burly guy at her store had shown up behind the customer. The customer rolled the cart at my daughter and hopped in his car and took off.
She said the store rules say if they make it out of the store to not confront anybody. But she didn’t get in trouble for stopping him.
I’m just hoping that most shop-lifters aren’t violent. Hence why they are shop lifting and not just mugging folks out on the street.
This is a day and age when thiefs seem to be given reign. Now days thugs can burn down business establishments without being held accountable. shame
Yep and the narrow men’s ties.
I worked at MANY places as Security but the best out of thousands of apprehensions was the black woman with three 16 pound frozen turkeys between her legs. I didn’t outright nail her but engaged her in a conversation, which I wouldn’t let up on. SHE yelled “ LAWDY! LAWDY! I gotta go!!!” That’s when I nailed her and she dropped the 48lbs of turkey out of her frost bitten thighs.
This is a must see. (Be warned however, profanity laced)

The accountant? was using a slide rule instead of a new fangled electronic calculator which would have been common place by ‘75. This is definitely from the sixties.
You are correct.
