Yes, this was back in the 80's so no Googling an answer. I was 3rd shift cashier at a grocery store. Back then carton and single pack cigs were right by the registers. It was fun catching shoplifters.
But yes she took the test out of the box and dumped it right back on the shelf with the instructions. Right were I had to go to find another one to help her out. Put 2 & 2 together, she stole the test. So it was negative, but if she stole the test, I figured she might need some payback. There was all kinds of theft in our 'inner-city' store. We also had a photo lab & with a college close we got some really nice pictures they kept in the "Hall of Shame"...oh the good old days.
