Just over an hour ago our TV Guide thief was back in the shop and stealing the TV Guide from the Herald Sun. Thanks sharp work from our team and video footage from last week we caught her. The thief paid for last week’s paper and returned the insert from today. It was clear from the discussion this is not recent activity for her. She had all sorts of excuses as to why she was taking the TV Guide. None made any sense.
You really have to wonder why people risk their reputation by stealing a newspaper insert.
Every newsagent should be on the lookout next Wednesday for this woman.

Most interesting. Whilst it is possible to have some compassion for the lady (without knowing her personal circumstances), at the end of the day retailers invest heavily in stock and pay huge rent. Theft is a major problem and must be addressed. Although it may have been overkill, the Newsagent was entitled to involve police. There is a lesson here for all.
