Yes, small-time theft and item return is a staple of drug addicts. Another popular target: the hanging plants displayed out in front of a store.

How does one go about that? You steal the hanging plant and then go to...? Is there a black market for hanging plants?

You steal it from one Wal Mart/Home Depot etc. and then you go a few miles down the road to the next identical store of the same namebrand.

And return it? "I, uh, I decided that this plant didn't go with my drapes..." WTF? No wonder my local Wal-mart (which I refuse to go to) treats their customers more like criminals. They want to do a colonoscopy on you before you leave the store.

Carrots in the Hood?
This week the campus cafeteria has been its own little Romper Room, with a bunch of HS kids running around: there's some kind of pre-college thing going on.
Almost EVERY SINGLE kid gets a few carrots from the salad bar to go with their meal. Doesn't matter if they pizza or a burger or soup or chinese food...they always go over to the salad bar and get about 5 or 6 carrots. Seriously, almost all of them. And there are about a hundred of them. It could be that whoever is in charge makes them get at least one vegetable, and that is their choice. However, i wonder if there are uses for carrots (the small little pre-peeled ones that look like fingers) that I am not yet hip to. "You kids and your Dan Fogelberg and your carrots..." Just wondering. edit: crud, meant to make this a thread but wasn't paying close enough attention to what I was doing.
