I was in Kroger the other day and watch a young couple load up a cart with 10 cases of assorted Big K soda. At check out they paid for the soda with a bridge card and left the store.
About 20 or 25 minutes the were back with the empty cans which they returned for the deposit.
I learned later from a Korger employee that the couple are crack heads and
they use the deposit to buy crack.
They spent $42.30 with tax to get $24.00. |

That sounds about right after all its just our tax dollars hard at work. Thanks Democraps. I wonder how they would have reacted if that $24 was simply credited to their bridge card. Anybody able to show us a liberal giveaway program thats ever worked??  |

Not new Steve! In the late 90's the King Party Store on M.L. King and Dayton was one of a number of such stores busted for food stamp violations. They too bought food stamps. Some of the things the store offered were drugs and even guns.
This chain of criminal enterprise ran down into the Detroit area and even touched Lapeer county. |

Steve you could have gotten 40% off on your groceries and you and the crackheads would have both come out ahead and the soda would not have been wasted.  |

| A friend of mine told me that one time he saw a couple ( perhaps the same one) buy some cans of pop at a local store. Just down the road he saw this couple pouring the pop into the Kearsley Lake . I suspect that is what that couple Steve saw at Krogers did. If two people I know seen roughly the same activity of mis-use of their Bridge Cards I would say it is fairly widespread . Maybe there should be a hot line for people to call such activity . |

| It's probably one of those same ppl that spam our drawing entry/marketing program with fake card numbers to affect his odds and try to scam our program. I saw something simular with a lady that bought several cases of faygo, dumped them in the parkng lot near my car. I asked her what she was doing and she said taking back the cans to get some "squares". Guess she thought I was rude to ask if her kids ate menthol or regular as part of their diet.
