    Huh that’s a trip man I’d never have thought. I guess people are smart enough to understand value versus weight and that shit is some of the highest value per pound at the grocery store.

      It’s also something that’s available in a lot of stores so you get many places to try your luck in. And they aren’t as hard to steal as electronics and they aren’t next to the cashiers like some higher value stuff. And meat and cheese is something that is an easy sell to a lot of people, since it’s not very specific at all. I don’t have a use for a new electric toothbrush but sure I guess I could eat some really good steaks.

      My local store got some alarm things on more expensive meat and cheeses because it got so bad. Felt so weird seeing it the first time.
