Supermarket crime increases by nearly 60% over past year, report shows

Almost like the cost of living is unachievable for those on the lowest wages.

Hmm, how does that track with their annual profits over that last year?
Even I'm stealing and I can afford it. With the self checkouts it's to easy not to get a freebie each time.
- when I used to work for one of these types of stores, whenever a family came to the checkout, I'd intentionally forget to scan one of the items or put in the wrong number of potatos or something like that. I probably cost the company dozens of dollars doing that
  
  That's just the visible hand of the market adjusting for shrinkflation.
- Sound like a knob to me.
Remember kids, if you see someone stealing food or toiletries, no, you didn't.
