[Kaderin Triste]

Well, we stopped him this time. Apparently he comes in pretty frequently in the evenings and has gotten away with multiple sewing machines, bolts of fabric, etc before so...stopping him one time doesn't do much. Especially since he's just one of dozens of regular shoplifters we get. Most don't go for anything too big and just stuff their purses with jewelry supplies, art pens, and cricut accessories, but big items aren't an uncommon theft.
It's why we don't keep sewing or cricut machines on the shelf anymore. But even that doesn't stop them. A month or so ago, we had a woman go back into the employee only back room, take a sewing machine, and walk out.
