Tonight as I was in Kroger frantically trying to make sure I got all the unadvertised mega event deals, I rounded a corner and saw a man taking peelies off all the Planters Peanuts. For a second I thought he was an employee, he was wearing dark blue slacks and a button up shirt.

I asked if he was taking peelies and he said yes.

“Do you want some?” he asked me.

“No, I only take them off if I am buying the product.” I said, irritated.

Then I informed him that taking peelies is stealing and that it is illegal in many states. As a peelie, once on a product is considered part of the product. It would be as if you were stealing the entire product.

He didn’t care. He walked away and started looking at all the coupon books in the display that was next to the peanuts. He saw me watching him and walked down an aisle. I looked at the peanuts and he had taken almost 30 peelies.

Not 1 minute later, I saw him walking down more aisles STEALING ALL THE COUPONS OFF THE TEAR PADS!! I am seriously pissed at this point and walk up front to find a manager. I grabbed Kathy (who is AWESOME) and let her know what is up. She marches over to him and let’s him know he is stealing and that he can’t be in the store when he is not purchasing something.

Then you know what the coward does? He doesn’t say a word and makes a beeline, almost running, out the front doors of the store.

If you are a reader of MyLitter, do NOT come back to this blog. This is a blog for ethical couponers, who are not greedy and selfish. Do NOT come here for FREE information, and in turn hurt all the others who shop in the same stores as you. 

NO ONE LIKES A THIEF.
