This is perhaps where it goes for those retailers who choose to target the poorest of customers. And below. It is sad that WM and other similar retailers have to spend so much energy policing shoplifters, but here we are.

Most *men hate shopping, especially a Big box store.
A whole bunch of people wandering with glazed-over eyes and a whole bunch of cadre that does not know anything about the pruduct(s) they are selling.
If I hated a store so bad I had to reach out for comunity help as to how to deal with it...I would change stores.
As said in many various fashions already.
Why go back for the abuse?
Truly, that says something about our inner being. (101)
* most women enjoy it more...

I have very limited experience with WM, probably less than once a year. That said, I needed fabric markers for a project and they were the closest source. After searching for a few minutes with no success, I approached a staff member with my quest. She led me from her section to another part of the store and pointed out the various options. A1 service from the Greenwood NS store.
When I went through the self checkout, I just kept the receipt with my package of markers and thanked the staff member in that area on my way out.
My project? A T shirt with my signature line.

This reminds me of the last time I punched anyone. My brothers and sister and I had tickets to a Browns game. We were in the crowd, trying to get through the turnstiles, and my sister said (too loudly), "I dropped the tickets." They were a step behind us, she bent over and grabbed them. Some asshat came up and started pushing her, saying they were his tickets. I got between them and the guy tried to push me, so I slugged him. We went off saying, "They stole my tickets." Some other guy asked how many tickets there were, and he didn't know.
