A Changing Tide

Walking in to Walgreens this evening we noticed that the Tide Laundry Soap bottles now have a large anti theft security tag on them. We thought this was very strange so hubby questioned the Pharmacist. According to the Pharmacist people have been stealing large amounts of Tide Laundry Soap to use as a trade item for drugs.

I was in disbelief so I did a Google search. Sadly this is true and has been going on for quite some time now. Theft of Tide Laundry Soap is on the rise (amongst other things) and not just in my neighborhood, but probably in yours too. Criminals use the detergent to barter for drugs or sell it on the black market at half price.
