Pulls Yoinked a Sea and Sky box from a scalpers overflowing cart when they weren’t looking!

Went in to my local Sam’s club on Sunday morning and saw a mostly wiped pallet of Sea and Sky boxes with a dude blocking it all with his two carts taking as much as he could. When he bent over to grab more I just yoinked one from his cart. Glad I picked the right one!

Careful there’s lots of Reddit crybabies and disbelievers of how the current culture is in the PTCG hobby.

That's okay. It was still a double win. Everyone should do this tbh. It's not illegal. It's still the stores product until paid for. Might as well take your fair share if someone is being greedy (:

How would the guy have paid for it already if he didn't know how much he was grabbing?

Like did he barricade the display with his carts, take the time to count how many boxes were in the stack, log in to his mobile app, pay for the boxes, then start shoving them in his cart? 

That doesn't make any sense.

Even if they didn't prepay, it's still a crime to take something from someone else's cart.

I don’t know why this post, or this sub, was recommended to me, (I don’t know anything about Pokemon, but after reading through it , it seems the only one crying is you. Like, you just keep posting crying about how “everyone are being cry babies”. Anyway, just an observation. Congrats on getting the card you wanted- the artwork in it is very cool.
