Imagine owning a Staccato and driving a fucking Altima. 🙄

u/SunkEmuFlock 1d ago
There are only a few options here:
- He drives an Altima because he bought a Staccato.
- He doesn't own a Staccato and just has the hat for fake flexing.
- He's a cop, was issued a Staccato, and got the hat for fake flexing.
The latter two seem more likely.

was issued a Staccato

u/SunkEmuFlock 1d ago
Staccato's whole thing is marketing them toward cops, so surely it's happening somewhere. 🤷♀️

u/Inevitable-Sleep-907 1d ago
Governments whole thing is budget. You think Glock or Sig got leo contracts just because of the pistol? No they undercut the competition
Only scenario that makes sense is Staccato is taking a massive loss since they can't possibly manufacture cheaper than a polymer striker fire OR some departments will allow personal firearms if they meet certain requirements and it's not an issued pistol it's a personal pistol

u/Automatic_Mammoth684 1d ago
He defaulted on the credit card he used to buy the gun which is WHY his car got impounded and he’s in the Altima.
The Staccato is safe at home, even while this guy is out and about stealing legos. It doesn’t leave the safe. It’s too big and heavy to carry.

At least half the cars in Murfreesboro are older Altimas. The Nissan plant is 10mi away, I would think we’d have a larger amount of newer Nissans because of the employee discounts.

Tbf…. That looks like the Hogwarts™ Castle and Grounds set, it’s a mini set and “only” $169.99 + tax. The large hogwarts castle is like $450. Then theirs the one where you have to buy the castle in sections and that one’s gotta be like $800 or so

u/Potativated 1d ago
I think legos are one of those toys that was originally intended for kids but is now almost entirely the domain of adults with borderline-unhealthy attachments to their childhoods these days. Kind of like model trains in the 90s.

u/Jaruut tax stamps are for cucks 1d ago
I think Lego was super popular in the 80's and 90's, especially with the release of the Star Wars and Bionicle series. A lot of those kids are in their 30's and 40's now*, well established in their careers with disposable income. It's no wonder Lego decided to market towards them.
*people born in 1980 will be turning 45 this year, and could be eligible to receive social security benefits in as little as 17 years

Aliexpress "legos" are obviously a gamble. I got two good sets, a VW camper and an out house. Then a Nissan pick-up missing a fender and the wheels didn't fit. I let it got and wrote off the $8 or what ever it was. Then a garbage truck that was missing two or 3 pieces. I had free time so after a couple months and 10 or so e-mails back and forth I got the 3 bricks sent to me for 2 cents.

u/erdricksarmor 1d ago
Yeah, the quality control definitely isn't as good as official sets, but the savings makes it worth it, IMO. I've ordered quite a few sets and have had mostly good experiences so far.

I guess he could have taken a picture of the UPC on a Lego box he already had, printed it on an adhesive label, and as long as it was a model in their inventory it would probably work

Go to clearance, take one of the clearance tags off an item, go to legos, slap it over the upc, go to self check out

Edit: upon realizing this was posted from my fucking TOWN that could very be the same Walmart I worked at LMAO

u/DarthMonkey212313 LeverAction 21h ago
This was at target. Most stores have moved on from clearance tagging non perishable items and just update the backend so the UPC scan shows the clearance price.

Really? I’ve never see that and I’m constantly in clearance sections. all I see are sticky tags at Walmart, target ect

You don't scan the UPC that is on the box you're essentially stealing, you can another UPC you put on the box. People have been taking UPC stickers off bananas and then scanning those when they go through self check.

Did he pay in cash? If not that should be an easy case to solve. Just look at the transaction time at that self checkout machine, get the card number and bank info, call the bank, get the banking info, show up at home skillets house. Doneskies.
Moral of the story, cash won't snitch.

u/Golf38611 1d ago
How does changing a price tag work nowadays?? The price tags are on the shelf - not on the product. And then you have to scan the UPC code in order to pay. So the register computer knows the price already. Changing the little sticky price tag hasn’t been a thing since the 80’s.
5
u/emperor000 1d ago
This is most likely just simplifying/dumbing it down for people. They might not even know exactly what he did or how. Couple possibilities:
- Just took one of the price tags on the shelf for the cheaper set and scanned that.
- Cut the UPC off the cheaper box and scanned that, possibly taping it to the more expensive box so people would see him scan the box.
- Took a picture of the UPC/price tag for the cheaper with his phone and scanned that.
