 I have done that in the past... i have paid for more empty animal cookies and chocolate milk containers then i can count.... I asked a manager one day about this and was told..... "WE WOULD RATHER THE KIDS BE HAPPY AND QUITE THEN YELLING OR CRYING  IF COOKIES AND MILK DO THE TRICK HEY IT IS NO PROBLEM"  and was also told hey as long as your hear your spending $$$$$ so keep them kids happy. I have always paid for what was eaten and/or drank... I have also got in a store and gotten feeling really hot and weak so i get water and yes drink it....... would you rather me pass out crack my head  open? or sip water to feel better? people that complain about petty stuff needs to  stop and think some times there is a reason for it being done. and just maybe what you see them eating and/or drinking was already paid for.. please let all us moms know what store you work in we will all stay clear..... AND IT IS NOT STEALING UNLESS WE DO NOT PAY FOR IT....
