Althou...I doubt I would have said anything either. Although, I was reading the Parade magazine in the newspaper, and there was this exact question! It was a poll about our country's morality, and 84% of people said they would say something if they saw someone shoplift. <BR/><BR/>I guess for me, it would depend on what the item was too. I mean a $10 toy, compared to something that's $50 or more...I don't know. It's unfortunate that it's people like this that are making our economy worse, and forcing prices higher!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2356238098880523445.post-76894561164444541542009-02-20T20:37:00.000-06:002009-02-20T20:37:00.000-06:00Yeah, I'm pretty sure I was just not wanting to kn...Yeah, I'm pretty sure I was just not wanting to know what had happened. So I tried to ignore it. Then when I was telling Justin about it, I got to thinking, the car-seat was covered with a blanket over the upright handle. I never actually saw a baby. Heard no baby noises. Why would you cover up a "sleeping" baby and then talk/sing loudly to it? What a hoax.This Heavenly Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14586469381231517883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2356238098880523445.post-18839340065580308712009-02-20T19:30:00.000-06:002009-02-20T19:30:00.000-06:00Ok, first off a "hypothetical" is always more easy...Ok, first off a "hypothetical" is always more easy than the real thing. I preface this with the comment that I for sure WOULD have done the same thing you did through the beeping exit door. <BR/>The thing I would have done differently (because I can be CRAZY like this sometimes, I get it from my nosy, opinionated Mother I swear)was that I REALLY think I would have said something in the isle when I saw her put something in her bag. <BR/>I am guessing that you really knew what you saw but didn't want to know it because you were only 99% sure and did not want to judge. If I am wrong, then maybe I would have done exactly what you did. <BR/>But... I would have said something like, "dude, are you going to pay for that or just put it in your bag?"Or... say something to my 11 month old (or 2 year old) in my cart like, "Gabe, I just want to let you know it is VERY wrong to steal things and it always comes back to get you in the end." (loud enough for them to hear) <BR/>You must have been DYING!!! I would have called my husband and just went off to get all the "unfairness" out of my brain after a situation like that. I HATE seeing stuff like that. Like we wouldn't like to just take what we want! <BR/>The right answer: Probably to go tell an associate that you saw something and let them deal with it if they want to. OR... do what you did and then just blog vent about it ;)Mrs. Jones sayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09316042201643365736noreply@blogger.com
