You are at the grocery store and you see those open bins where they display candy and you weight them before you take them to the cashier. Have you ever helped yourself to a free piece of candy and if you did, do you consider that stealing? How about grapes or cherries at the grocery store. Do you think they have freebies figured into the price of the item?

I sure have taken some of that candy, and also grapes. I dont do this at all anymore, becuase I dont want to set a bad example for my son. I used to take the Bullseyes from the candy bins. YUMMY

I honestly do not do this and get really angry with my kids if they try it. However I will drop the 10 cents and allow them to have a piece. I think its stealing, and it sets a bad example for children.

You are right. Good example you are setting! Congrats!

I would consider taking a piece of candy from the bin stealing and no, I have never done this. As for the grapes, I have had my daughter taste one grape before we decide if we are purchasing them or not. The reason for this is because they always taste different and I want to make sure that she likes them. I only let her taste one and then if I do purchase it is from the package she tasted. I never taste the cherries either as they always seem to taste the same.

I have taken a candy...but no fruit.

No freebies are not figured into the price of the foods.
My sister owns a grocery store(one of the big ones).
There is a lose percentage added to the cost but it does not cover theft.
If I see someone stealing I try to tell them how offensive it is to be put in the position where the right thing to do would be to bring it to authorities attention. Susan

I don't do this. I even don't think to do this. Every time, after weighting them, I will not open the bag untill I cash for them.
Though it's not good, in fact it's cann't be called stealing.
