well, to be honest. maybe my views on things are different. I guess if it was a place like walmart, ya, I wouldn't feel bad about that. The only
people in the end paying for those handbaskets or stolen candy bars... is well walmart. and i don't like business like walmart too much to begin with.

=/ If it was some mom and pop shop. i can understand how that would be a douche move.

Myself, you, and any other consumer pay for the stolen items from any store. Even Walmart isn't going to "eat" the loss. It gets passed onto the consumer. I agree that theft is theft, regardless of the amount or who from.

Everyone knows walmart doesn't have to pay for the stolen hand baskets. Wal-mart and ALL corporations pass the cost of loss due to theft down to the consumer.

Wal-mart jacks up their prices to make up for the percentage that is stolen.

In the end people pay for other what other people are stealing.
Corporations already predicted how much will be stolen in the year, so they charge you extra now to make up for it.

It's like pre-crime, where everyone gets charged for murder. Edit: more like accomplice to

and grumpy beat me to it.

If your family drinks soda just buy a couple 2 liter bottles instead of a case, also most families use milk. Once the soda and milk are gone wash the container out and use it for your plants. I have 7 pots that are just 1 gallon milk containers that I cut the tops off of. I know most people grow in 5 gallon buckets, but is you dont have the extra cash to buy buckets just for growing you can easily make a free pot out of a empty gallon of milk, and yes I consider it free because no matter what your gonna buy that gallon of milk anyways so you might as well use the empty container instead of throwing it in the trash.

chocolate.delicious chocolate.

In all seriousness though, stealing/liberating these from grocery stores isn't productive and may carry penalties. Other DIY pots include 2L bottles, grow bags, etc.

No! Don't go out and do this! Just because you're poor, doesn't mean you should go steal a hand basket from the store! I work in Grocery! That isn't cool! Use an empty Soda bottle or something... Don't go and make someone else lose money because you are dishonest.

a thief is a thief yes.

but if walmart is jacking up prices for a crime that hasnt happened yet say a pre-crime, and everyone pays for it, then i have already payed for the basket so its not stealing. :P

Ok, seeing how it's still going, everyone that thinks its ok to steal anything, leave your address, or send it to a fellow thief via a PM.
