I’d say the books would probably prove that their assumption Is probably correct.

I won’t feel sorry for Walmart if these items, which presumably were locked up for a reason, cause them financial loss.

That’s not a very bold prediction. Walmart didn’t lock that stuff up just for the hell of it.

It appears Wal Mart is going with a loss-leader strategy. Perhaps they’ll buy more other goods while they’re in there stealing those items.

Clearly the only logical reason why a place like Albertson’s goes to the time, effort and extra expense to lock up $25 bottle of Crown Royal while leaving a $75 bottle of bourbon open for anyone to grab is... racism

And the purchase price will double for consumers to compensate for thieves.

My father was there to teach me how to shave when I was 14. Are they going to free the razors too or am I going to continue to have to hunt down an employee in the lawn and garden aisle to unlock the case so I can shave?

Would a Toaster be a “multicultural product”?

Asking for a friend.
