<<Yo genius, Kroger just reported, I shop in the same Smiths for 18 years. I know a few of the long time checkers, , management, etc , and we talk, off the record. Let's just say in very good neighborhoods, shrinkage is a serious problem take it from a conspiracy nut.... Hc>>
Yo HC! Here are words that are genuinely meant to be helpful. Perhaps your conclusions are correct,
perhaps retail theft is worse than ever and the end of the western world is near.
But you really need to get better sources of information.
The ones you are using (conspiracy theory websites) are making you look dumb and are making the word a worse place.
The latest National Retail Federation survey found that "the average shrink rate in 2021 was 1.44%, a slight decrease from the last two years but comparable to the five-year average of 1.5%."
Hardly sounds like an apocalypse.
