“Stolen to order”? The hell does that mean?
What, you don’t have the black market insta cart app?
UberThievesBasically it is someone who “sells” cheap wares on wherever, and steals it to sell it when someone places an order. Usually on a platform like Telegram or similar.
So, basically, larceny with just-in-time characteristics?
I was gonna ask the same thing. British people once again showing they cannot even speak the language they invented.
I kept rereading the headline trying to figure out what it meant too. If it’s some B*itish idiom I’m not aware of someone please enlighten me.
Like made to order. Stolen to order. Someone is paying someone else to steal it.
“when you lock things up you don’t sell as many of them” I bet they never covered that in your business degree sir. It’s ok sir it’s ok. No. No one thinks your the intellectual equivalent to a shart. You’re very smart I promise.
I will never understand rich people, like 50 years of coddling them rotten has been the entire human race’s top priority and all that comes out of this is the rich become more and more distrustful of everyone when they have no reason to have those trust issues.
It’s cause they know better than anyone how wretched they are and live in terror of everyone else catching on
Oh, those millennials who would rather go buy OTC medicine than spend their entire bank account at the doctor? The same millennials who would rather wait in line for self-checkout than having to go to a clerk because they don’t want someone looking at their Preparation H and Compound W? These corporations expected all these socially awkward OTC fans to ask for assistance to open the security shelf? Not to mention that Walgreens is so understaffed, they’d have to wait in the line at the front to ask the only employee to unlock the shelf for them. Did these corporations think about this for a single second?
You can show these to
as words right from the executive’s mouths and they still won’t believe they were dupped by Faux and Fiends 
You don’t sell as many of them to in-store shoppers; if you have in-store staff to fill orders, it basically has no effect.
And if you’re aiming to push customers more towards online ordering and pickup, this fits right in to that objective.

Back in the day, there would be a long counter in shops with a clerk in a brown apron behind it. You had to ask him for the goods you wanted. This made shoplifting very hard. If they are pissing themselves over a stolen candy bar they would have to go back to this model.
But there is a reason they stopped doing it that way. Self-service shops might experience more loss but the saved labour costs and increased sales makes up for that many times over.
These wankers want to have their cake and eat it to. They want all the earnings from self-service with none of the downsides.
except you cant have self service with no employee intervention when the employee has to put the item INTO the lockbox and then help the customer take it back OUT later, super convenient and time saving, capitalists stay winning (in this case, the monorail salesman who sold them these chocolate bar carrying bags)
Oh boy pre IPO shares!
When candy bars are now the same level of security as jewlery and guns.
