8. A mattress?

How do you steal a mattress? Drag it through the store and slip out when no one is looking? There is a lot of theft at Walmart. A store near me did inventory and discovered a million dollars in merchandise was missing. That is done by people putting something on the bottom of the cart so that the check out clerk might not see it. I personally saw a guy about to leave the store with an overloaded cart through the garden department which doesn't always have a clerk around, but he was stopped and couldn't provide a receipt for what he had supposedly just paid for 5 minutes ago. They let him just walk out since he didn't get away with anything. Happens all the time, but not a mattress!
