My buddy did this one time. Ended up stuffing a can of tuna into his pocket without thinking and then got arrested because they thought he robbed the convenience store and killed the clerk, but it was actually someone else just in a very similar car. Gotta be careful.

Sounds like their lawyer was dead on balls accurate.
I guess, took him five tries to pass the bar.
Robbed the convenience store and killed the clerk..over a can of tuna?
I’m not sure I could call myself a good police officer at that point. I’m not sure I’d think I was cut out for the job of even defining ‘criminals’ at that point.
They should have like regret baskets midway through the store.
Which is why you see empty carts at Home Depot in aisles. It isn't an accident.
If they had a dom on staff to slut shame us a bit when we get the regret basket, that would be amazing! 🤤
Whatever floats your boat!
Me going into costco: I just need a rotisserie chicken for dinner.
Ten minutes later: I guess I do need a 50 gallon drum of mayonnaise.
This got me. 😆
Everyone needs mayo.
To dip the rotisserie chicken in. Obvs.
What's special about Costco? Speaking as someone who's never been.
Bulk shopping, and the place is like a giant warehouse. I once made the mistake of picking up a few heavy things and hauling them around the store with me until I could check out. It was painful.
Me: I don't need a cart
10 minutes later, dragging a basket full to the brim with my arm hanging out of its socket
I do this on purpose to prevent myself from buying to much. I KNOW I'll get more than I came for, lack of basket or cart puts an upper limit on how much
I explained this to me children and how carts are for the weak. My then 8 year old announced loudly when she was shopping with mommy right by the carts "mommy don't take a cart, those are for the weak".
Wife wasn't too thrilled about it and was even less thrilled when I laughed.
I come in. Need 3 things. Grab 2. Get a call to get 2 more things. Remember i need one more. Then stand in line with a tower in my hands.
I’ve done this at Costco myself a number of times.
“Ah, I just need a bag of coffee and a thing of multivitamins. … Oh, we could use some smoked salmon. And, another bottle of Malbec. Maybe some frozen waffles… Ooh, they’re selling Amish-built sheds!”
And, then, I’m either manhandling half the store to the register, or I’m putting the stuff aside somewhere—looking a bit like one of those careless people who can’t be bothered to put stuff back—and making the walk of shame to get a cart.
Yea this happened to me at Costco when I forwent the cart and ended up deciding my dog needed a new bed. And then I decided I was to proud to grab one on the way out. I am such an idiot most of the time.
I'm really annoyed my local grocer got rid of their baskets. They said it was a part of cutting costs.
Were they using disposables?
And that's when you got rid of your local grocer?
Idk who that man is beyond I've never seen him expressing any emotion other than social anxiety he's like the socially awkward version of the Terminator
I put everything in my backpack. If I can't put something in my backpack, then I don't buy it
A lot of places where I live don't allow people to carry backpacks throughout the store due to theft
Yeah, I was going to say. I'm too paranoid to put things in the bags I bring in. Not up for the drama with an over zealous anybody and inching up the chances of getting shot.
and inching up the chances of getting shot.
Oh. Right. Certain part of certain America.
Just wait until he discovers the store no longer provides bags….
For free. I have yet to encounter a retail store that won't sell you a bag of some kind.
Not using a basket keeps me from buying a bunch of extra shit I probably don't need.
Costco doesn't even have baskets, at least the one I go to. So it's either carry by hand or a cart. So I carry by hand, which keeps me from overspending every trip because I can only carry like 4 or 5 things. I buy for myself only anyway so it's usually enough for the week.
Costco doesn't have hand baskets anywhere. The word basket in the image refers to the cart.
