I'm so glad you didn't get injured. If there has been a couple of incidents, the store clerks should have warned you or posted a warning of some sort. I know when I've bought fabric and am walking to my car I am doing a happy dance and thinking about what I'm going to make, not is someone out to take it from me! Guess I'm gonna pay a little more attention when I go out! I never have them put the receipt in the bag, always goes in my purse!
