Look Out! She’s Going for the Razor Blades…
Can someone please tell me why razor blades are kept behind “security” shelving in Wal-Mart? You know the shelf with the clear plastic sneeze guard lid on it?
This is the same security unit that emits an ear-piercing alarm when you lift the lid to retrieve your razor blades, which it turn scares the beegeezus out of you and puts the pharmacists on high alert for roving bandits armed with packages of Mach 3’s. All I can say - you better be sure you have selected the correct package before you lift the lid because if you do it twice within a short period of time, I’m sure a secret alarm is sent to local law enforcement agencies, alerting them of the potential hostage incident about to unfold.
Come on - it’s not like these razor blades could immediately be used as weapons. Considering the packaging they come in, it would require great technical skill and a sharp object before access could be gained – both of which I happen to lack. “Attention Wal-Mart shoppers”, in case you hadn’t noticed, the disposable razors blades are left unattended, run for your lives.
I would have had a better chance of going unnoticed if I purchased lice shampoo, a party size package of condoms and an early detection pregnancy kit. All I wanted to do was purchase some freakin razor blades, but instead I’m meant to feel like a second rate shoplifter – one with hairy legs no less!

I think can hear that alarm from way over here! :p
But I need those too, so it won't really be that much of an inconvenience.
Where is the party by the way?
