There is a thrift that I to regularly. I've picked up some good stuff from time to time. Recently, I've noticed two older guys hanging around the ceramics section. Every time an employee brings out a cart of new stuff, they raid it before the cart is even through the door. One guy has even followed an employee all the way to the front of the store, trying to pick out stuff from the cart she was pushing. I don't know if they are looking for Tiki (antiques, most likely), but it is really annoying. They don't give anybody else a chance, and the employees won't tell them to wait until the stuff is on the shelf. I saw them there today and overheard them saying there were there for two hours, looking for stuff. I guess it beats working!
