An impoverished old man on Social Security visited
a thrift store to save some money on clothes. To his
surprise, the clothes were marked up almost as high
as in a department store. He checked the prices on
other items as well and felt like he was in the
Macy’s of thrift stores. Pissed. Seeing the store was
a rip off, he had no qualms ripping the store off for
two shirts and a pair of wing tip shoes. Because he
pretended to be feeble and walked with a cane, the
sales ladies didn’t suspect him of stealing. And he
hobbled out of the store, a Robin Hood for himself.
