my mom owns a boutique that is in a center with a bunch of other boutiques and restaurants.
Anyways, it was about an hour to closing and her employees had already gone home, and this was saturday, the day before mother's day.
My mom is helping customers and she sees this lady, SS (Sucky Shoplifter) holding a few clothing items and grabbed a bottle of lotion that costs about 50$ (it's nice stuff and it was a rather large bottle of it too), SS then takes her merchandise into the dressing room. When she comes out of the dressing room she hands over the clothes, but my mom notices she no longer has the lotion so she says, did you want to buy the *** lotion, and the lady says something like oh i never had it, or something that didn't exactly fit and sounded suspicious, then SS turns to head to the door and my mom sees her bottle of lotion in SS's bag of merchandise from another store that is see-through
my mom calls out to her, miss i thinkyou have my lotion in your bag, , and SS says oh, no i bought that somewhere else, and my mom says i'm going to need to see a reciept,
SS cannot procure a receipt but keeps insisting she bought it somewhere else
So my mom says, look, i know that that is my lotion, no one else here sells it, if you return it now, i won't have to take this further, implying calling the authorities
so the lady says, i'm sorry, and places it on the counter and leaves
also, forgot to mention, my mom thought it was suspicious she brought lotion into the dressing room, so she checked inventory real quick on the computer compared to the bottles on the shelf, and she was missing one
when i went to go pick her up from work, she was shaking and started to cry while telling me this... This is the second shoplifter she's caught since opening two years ago (several others that were not caught, including ex-employee!!)
i just can't believe people would do something like this!

So now the neighborhood has no grocery store, and residents are pissed because they now have to take a bus (or drive) just to get food. Pissed, in part, because *they* caused the problem, and now they have to deal with it.
