It's not just a current thing. Years ago I worked at a JOANN's. They would steal whole bolts of fabric, leaving the cardboard.

I have never stole anything in my life! I couldn't live with myself or sleep at night if I did! Sad isn't it!

What goes around, comes around, they will get there do.

Some don't care that when they do this everyone else pays. They also don't believe in carma and that what goes around comes around. I do. This weekend I bought 4 items; two were 29.99 and 2 were 19.99. All four boxes looked alot alike since they were kits. The sales lady rang up all 4 at 19.99 which would of saved me 20.00 but cost the store that also. I took my reciept and went back the next day to explain their mistake and have them re-ring them up and I gave them the extra money. I've also done this when they have forgotten to ring something up and I've found it in my bag; my daughter thinks I'm crazy when I go back. I told her I'd end up paying in the long run. The things I bought this weekend were for Christmas; I'd no way give someone a gift that was basically steeling. Plus they had sharp cutting blades and I could see my daughter cutting herself really badly and it'd be due to my dishonesty if I hadn't returned the items.

me too. honest to a fault. i have to go back and pay also. but recently, i had just the opposite experience. buying for company, and spending a lot. i bought l package of spare ribs for $16. and a week later i noticed on the recipt i had been charged for 2. boy was i unhappy. and figured there was just nothing i could do about it. later i got to thinking and thought the PC code was probably the same, so would have told them i had been charged twice for the same item.

That is sad but in time, they will get what is coming to them.

I believe in Karma.

Hopefully the items were just misplaced and not stolen. That's unfortunate if they were indeed stolen.

they will probably show up on ebay or a site like that! What a shame for the vendor there went any chance of them making a profit during the shop hop sale! Shame!
