I was at BB getting my new TV and surround sound system today.There was this other guy being served at the same time.When I got outside with my cart of electronic goods, his window was smashed in on his van. Theives took off with his big screen TV when he went inside to get his surround sound system. I dodged a bullet, if they has served me first Iwould have been the victim. So when you go to BB or Future shop, make one trip back to the car.
Watch out when you go to Best buy / Future shop.

Nowhere in the story did RP mention anything about BB giving them a second TV? It's out of their store, not their responsibility anymore.
Read a story about two guys who walked into a store and picked up a big screen....and walked right out the door with it. An employee asked if they needed something to tie it down and went back inside. Last they saw the guys had it on the roof of the car and were driving out of the lot holding it down with one hand each.
Think most credit cards have something written in the agreement that if something happens to the item within a certain amount of time, a matter of days I think...you get a replacement.

Any time I have bought a large (physicaly) item, or anything that required multiple trips to the car, a sales clerk has come out with me. Even in minus 20 degree weather. I'm cetainly no fan of Futile Shop, but I appreciated the gesture. Congrats on not being the victim Regis.
Also
as the ecomony takes a dump, property crimes increase. Don't have any statistics.
And another thing to watch is, as the weather gets warmer, property crimes increase too. I certanly don't want to be breaking into cars when it's minus 30ºC in the middle of the night, why should crooks !
Just my $0.02

Not an uncommon occurance.
Last summer, I saw an emplyee at Future Shop cleaning broken car window glass from the parking lot. I suspect that people get their cars busted into quite often at these consumer alectronic shops. These places prefer that you do not know about it.

If the economy craps out.
Down in Florida, they pull beside you and jack your car if they know you have a big screen TV or a computer on board. It the economy craps out you may see this sort of thing here.

signs the economy is crapping out.
I have seen a few ads in the Annonce 123 that were offering free massages. Of course nothing is free. You just pay the $80 for the thai massage and no entry fee. The girl splits with the salon, is is still cheaper than previous prices. What indications have you seen that the economy is crapping out?

Two things I've noticed when I carjack people leaving BBFS:
1. The cars have much less gas in the tank. How am I supposed to make a clean getaway when I have to stop for gas after 2 KM?
2. I used to get SONY, Panasonic, and lot of other high-end brands. Now, most people are buying the crappy Korean knock-offs. Those are much harder to get rid of for real money on the black market.
At least it's warming up soon so I can just get back to stealing parked cars and breaking into homes...
I was thinking about starting a pyramid scheme, but it seems like a lot of work on the front end...
