Nah. I steal shit all the time from Home Depot. I do it by not scanning shit at the self checkout. I'll continue to do it too at every place that only has self checkout. I have ADHD. I'm so forgetful. Too bad they can't hire people to scan shit for me. Then I wouldn't forget so much.

    They might well know and not feel you're worth the effort to fuck with. Working at Lowe's opened my eyes to just how tight loss control is.

    The computer would alert if a known thief's license plate rolled into the lot! LOL, they even had nicknames for repeat offenders.
