Chocolate kept in anti-theft boxes as retailers warn it's being stolen to order - Feddit UK

> Chocolate bars are being locked in plastic boxes in some UK shops as retailers and police forces warn thieves are stealing them to order. > > Sainsbury’s said it had begun using “boxes on products which are regularly targeted”, with £2.60 bars of Cadbury Dairy Milk locked up in one London branch. > > Chocolate was more recently being “sold on by criminals and is now being targeted more frequently by prolific offenders,” according to the Association of Convenience Stores (ACS).

If you see someone stealing food, no you didn’t

I think that principle is intended to apply to staples, when people in poverty are forced to steal food so as not to starve.

Stealing bars of Dairy Milk and then selling them on seems like a different thing.

I think stealing from corporations is always ok, honestly if you steal that slop you deserve it. If you’re buying it you have already lost.
