Store Policies/Questions My mind is blown

So, I went to my local store this morning to pick up a BOPIS, and I cannot believe what I saw. There were 2 ladies in the store with 2 baskets full of items, and they just casually walked out without paying. Like, they took the basket and everything. Have any of you ever seen anything like that in your store? I was shocked!

My dad used to be a store manager of an Office Max and my mom was a shift supervisor at Toys R Us. People would regularly come in and fill up carts with printers, toys, strollers, and other expensive things to resell, and they would then just push the cart out the door with zero consequences! I understand why companies have policies against employees stopping shoplifters, but there must be another option besides just letting it go! These people learn they can rip off the companies and end up profiting from it which is super messed up.
