Swap Out Cheap Toy From Box At Retail With An Expensive One And Go To Jail

I stumbled across an old report on ABCNews.com is reporting who two of the geniuses that swap out inexpensive toys from its box and replace it with an expensive ones so they can get a scan of a cheap toy rather than pay for the more expensive one.  Over $2 Million stolen this way.

I say we line ’em up and pelt them with returns the day after Christmas!

    There was a news report back in May of a tech engineer who was arrested for defrauding Lego’s from Target. He would print out UPC codes for lesser costing Lego’s and use them to cover the more expensive UPC codes. He also sold them on eBay.

    And let people shoot extra Finn McMissile, Lightning McQueen, and other assorted peg-warming singles at them using slingshots.

    (MET: I think until the 1970’s, that would’ve been a perfectly acceptable idea. 🙂 Probably also sell mini cartons of Rusteze butane to set CARS on fire – hey kids, recreate the famous wreck from the movie but with a lot more smoke and flames! Ahh, the good old days … 😉 though they are selling Angry Birds with a mini slingshot but I have a feeling it travels like 2 inches … so, you will have to call little bro over to stand real close to you. 🙂 ).
