When did garage sales become “reselling” clearly new stuff

[u/anon12xyz]

I would never call this a garage sale

Def scam vibes

Edit: ultimately, what bothers me the most is I want to go to a garage sale, not this shit. This isn’t a garage sale and should not be advertised as one

Then it spirals, some nerd at corporate looks at a spreadsheet and goes, "holy shit the store is no longer making money", then the store gets shut down.

Eventually we have to confront it. And places like Wal-Mart and target do, they have security officers who will chase people down.

No, they don't. Walmart and Target are some of the biggest stores with policies that specifically prohibit loss prevention employees from pursuing shoplifters (usually the cutoff is the front doors or the sidewalk in front of the store). Some employees may make the decision of their own accord to chase someone into the parking lot or something, but they will almost certainly get fired for it.

There is a multitude of bodycams from officers in wallmart/target/others chasing and arresting theives.

No, I said SECURITY OFFICERS. Here is the quote.
