"Tenderloin... There we go, SKIRT STEAK!"
"We're gonna steal stuff from Electric Avenue, and then we'll get arrested!" (Sorry...)
I'm a LPO myself. I work in Hotel Hospitality. Though I don't work LP Retail, even I can understand just how dated. vacuous and completely over-exaggerated the 1965 Shoplifting Reel was. Even in '64, Kleptomaniacs were more broad and less juvenile than what was depicted in it. Shoplifters hit MALLS, Department Stores in the Mid 60s NOT Grocery Stores. Only Little Kids, with no allowance or revoked shoplifted at Grocery Stores. They'd usually swipe Candy or a piece of fruit. Women being Klepto at Groceries was so 1952 and was LONG dated by the time this Reel was made.
"So that's where her special marinade comes from." -- I nearly passed out, lol.
"I Didn't Take Anything" (Mixmaster Benny Mix) needs a SPARTA remix, stat!!!!!
All shoplifters HATE eye contact. As do people with social anxiety. So screw those people, right?
Big boi from the Montgomery Ward video should've just knuckled up and fought for his stolen goods. He was bigger than both of them, I think he stood a good chance.
I always look forward to your uploads, Ben. I know you don't get a ton of views like a lot of super popular RUclipsrs do, but you're very important to me and I'm going to be heartbroken if you ever decide to stop doing Archive.
She stole what would be at least $800 worth of cigarettes alone! THAT'S WHY NOWHERE HAS CIGARETTE CARTONS JUST OUT THERE ALL WILLY-NILLY! I guess get those Camels while they're still in stock, even though Marlboro sells out a lot faster.
"What's going to happen to Rob Kovacs?" "Electric chair."
When my gran was working retail way back when, they actually caught a woman trying to steal a whole frozen chicken by hiding it under her skirt.
I ran a self checkout for four years. We had one constant shoplifter who figured out how to manipulate the weight system, and didn't ring up enough muffins.
Well Miss Francis needed to afford school supplies somehow.
Fast forward to 2000 when there was nothing left worth stealing from Montgomery Ward with the exception of Sammy Sosa's corked ball bats! (At least in the case of the Temple, TX location.)
True story. I was once in a well known retail store looking at calculators (they really interest me) when suddenly an employee swooped in, scooped up some of the sexy TIs and whisked them away. I was mortified. I am a good person!
My dad said there was a Hy-Vee location in Des Moines that didn't last but a few years. He said it was frequently plagued by shoplifting. I guess the loss added up. This was back in the late 70s-early 80s. That neighborhood it was in is much nicer now.
puff pufff, "allllll I waaannnnaaa dooo, is ...... someeee fun befooooorrreee I die"
This is good material for a vaporwave remix.
Great episode with hilarious commentary, and your funny voice for the "peeping Tom" supermarket manager sounded a bit like Neil Goldman from Family Guy...the closing mix was also a great way to end it!
Lady who stole the Walkman, “Good god! I’m taking the perp walk down Electric Avenue!”
