    Well I got caught in California and I had to pay back the full amount of the value of the merchandise I was caught with, and then extra. And I had to go to court and was assigned many community service hours (very humiliating!) and am banned from that particular store for life.

    Just tell her to stop right now before she even gets caught! :) I think that's the best solution~

    Get a smack on the wrist - or is that outlawed now too.
