The Deodorant Thieves

I just ran to the pharmacy for beer (like you do) and thought I'd better pick up some deodorant for beest while I was there, and every damn stick had at least one and mostly two labels saying "CVS only" "call this number if you are not buying this from the Carpenter Road CVS". And when I checked out, she had to deactivate a security tag. It was a $9 two pack of deodorant! No security tag on the beer.....

So I asked her only half seriously, "so, is there a lot of deodorant theft that goes one?" Oh yes, she says, almost every night by the shelfload Then she goes on to produce a photo album of suspects taken by the security camera. Apparently it's easily resellable and highly desirable. Who'd a thunk it? You learn something new every day.

psssst.... wanna buy some deodorant? I got gel, solid or are you after some roll-on?
