I worked in retail for years and the past few years it was so bad we had people monitoring the cameras every day/night. And, let me assure you, it's everyone, everywhere - all sizes and ages. It increases the amount we pay for everything. People are so brazen, just like the man - pick it up and run! We had people try to get out with carts of clothing all the time. Sometimes they steal store shopping bags and take clothes into the fitting rooms, stuff the bags full and think no one will notice. And what's even more sad, people are stealing from our thrift stores here where volunteers are working to help our schools, Habitat, church youth programs. Sorry, it really makes me angry.
