Perhaps they need to return to the old fashioned grocery stores where you went in, gave your list to the counter man who dispatched a kid to go in back and get the goods on your list. Then the basket of goods would be given to you when you pay.

Lots of supermarkets started doing that during the COVID lockdown, as a service to customers. You put in your order through the website, pay for it then, store clerk gets the order, and brings it to your car so you don't have to mingle with people.

How many of these grocers voted for Democrats, I wonder?

Bingo. The problem is not the rabid savage violently attacking store owners or other shoppers. The problem is the Democrat politician who aids and abets them.

You mean kind of like on-line grocery ordering and pick-up.

I've heard complaints that people who do in-store shopping subsidize those of us who seldom set foot in a supermarket.

To which I reply "What are the shoplifting losses from people like me?"

LOVE IT! “Undocumented income redistribution”.

As in, “He’s not shoplifting, it was an undocumented redistribution of income”.

A perfect way for liberals to excuse criminal thievery just like they do the southern border.

We’ll put Kamalalalalabaabaa in charge of that too. She can be the shoplifting czar.
