I wonder how long it's going to be before stores in some areas put EVERYTHING behind lock and key.

I think with the prevalence of online ordering for store staff to pick and hold for pickup or delivery you may see a “store” dedicated for such become a common model.

Go back to the Service Merchandise model... everything you see is a display model. Put in your ticket and wait by the conveyer for it to be sent down from the warehouse.

Gwinnett County police said Jose Antonio Cruz, 31, and Tabitha Katurhia Weaver, 37, traveled to two Publix grocery stores in the Lawrenceville area on Sunday, March 26, to steal allergy medication, according to the Gwinnett County Police Department.
The pair would reportedly enter the stores, dump all the medication they could into two large, plastic gray bins and then leave without paying for the medication or bins.
Security camera footage obtained by FOX 5 Atlanta showed the pair would spend about three minutes in the aisle of the pharmacy area before dashing out.
Officials believe they made off with approximately $4,000 worth of medicine from the first store and $5,000 from the second.
$9,000
Both Weaver and Cruz are facing felony shoplifting charges. If convicted, they could face up to 10 years in jail, according to Georgia law.
I wouldn't hold your breath on that nowadays

I'm betting the perpetrators are of an IQ range that wouldn't know that.

And who knows - buy what looks like ordinary OTC meds from a fence, and you may just hit the fentanyl jackpot. Bye bye . . .

Yes ... AFTER you paid for it.
