    These are not losses. They’ll just push up the price of goods based on their chance of being stolen.

    You’re not stealing from the store, you’re stealing from everyone else that actually pays for the products.

    Unless you’re stealing from a small shop that doesn’t have the time and resources to calculate price based on theft. In which case, you are an asshole for stealing from a small business.

      they’ll raise prices no matter what you do. in fact, having worked at walmart before, the pickup department generates more waste and shrinkage than people stealing.
