So the plan is screwing over the company you're buying goods from?

Where can I like and subscribe for more of these amazing life hacks? (/s)




here’s few more: - you never have to buy stamps. just put address where you want letter to be sent in the sender area of the envelope and address it to whomever and drop it in the mailbox without postage. post office will return mail without postage to sender which is exactly where you want letter to go

any more? ;)


Unsorted mail from outside the postal district of the incoming office->destroyed.


this isn’t mom&pop shops, these are big business who spent a lifetime stealing whenever they can and are now not even having workers check people out but we as shoppers should be honest…


The thing is, these stores budget for loss (shrink).

The problem is when they go over this budget, the store will need to reduce costs to cover their larger shrink budget.

The largest cost for stores is employees.

The executives and corporate don't lose hours, the low level employees do.

You might think you are sticking it to the man, but in reality you are screwing over the low level employees


if by “low level employees” you mean myself who is using self-checkout lane to do the work for “the man” then I agree 100%
