San Francisco Walgreens Introduces New Frequent Looter Rewards Punch Card

SAN FRANCISCO, CA - In response to record levels of unprosecuted shoplifting, Walgreens stores in San Francisco have introduced a new "Frequent Looter Rewards Card."

"If you can't beat 'em, I guess all you can do is join 'em," said Sandra Lopez, regional manager in charge of 8 locations in the Bay Area. "We don't even have regular shoppers anymore - just looters."

Pretty lame fan service for undemanding readers.

But the CFO of Walgreens admitting to Walgreens investors that the company had invented the rampant San Francisco crime wave? Now THAT was fabulous comedy.
