I thought I should expose my evil deeds. Well, one of them anyway. But I didn't want it to get buried in some general discussion thread. So after I confess to what a horrible fucking sinner I am, I invite anyone who wishes to drop their own confessions here as well. I will ask though, let's keep it out of the pit.
Ok, so I have been doing a lot of shoplifting since I have been able to wear a mask everywhere I go. I haven't done any shoplifting since I was a teenager, but a year or so ago it happened by accident, so to speak. I was in a grocery store hoarding dog food which included a flat of canned dog food below the main basket on the cart. It wasn't until I got home that I realized I was not charged for the 24 cans of Pedigree.
I didn't go back, but I was concerned that the store would notice the mismatch on their inventory report and then roll back the hours of video they take daily from dozens of ceiling cameras. It would be easy to see me putting the cans on the cart and then wheeling them out to the parking lot. They'd only have to invest 36 or so hours of video review and investigation time to possibly figure out what kind of vehicle I drove. Suddenly I realized that the math would never allow that to happen. Nobody will put out a dragnet for $14 worth of dog food.
I'm not trying to make a career of this. But I have begun to exploit the holes in each of the local grocery stores overall security. For one, I rarely grab more then 1 item, so I go after value. Stuff like smoked paprika, melatonin, smoked oysters, artichoke hearts and lately, caviar. In fact, it's my caviar jones that's threatening to ruin me. Of course you don't get Beluga at Publix, but you do get two ounces of Romanoff Black Lumpfish (priced at $10) in a little jar that's too easy to conceal.
Sooooo, I have 35 jars of caviar that expires in 2024. And for that, I confess!
