Or is it Theftway? This year there have often been robberies in the store while I’m there or shortly before I got there.

It wasn't like this until the past year or so.

There were two times in recent months where I’ve seen people out of the corner of my eye running behind me carrying armloads of stuff as they sprint for the door at my local Safeway.

Often I’ll talk with the cashier or security guard to get the story about what happened.
