Organizations like Walgreens have strict policies regarding anything
that looks like theft. The article doesn't mention if she was called
out for taking the chips before she paid for them.

I never had occasion, but if I were feeling that way the few seconds
it takes to talk to another employee, or a supervisor, is the right
thing to do. And she is working at a pharmacy where they sell the
"accepted" solution. Being a diabetic, why didn't she have that
product,
and a receipt for it, in her pocket every time she showed up for
work?

There are two places I would expect this sort of problem to occur.
San
Francisco is one, and the the old Greenwich Village is the other.

That's kind of what I was thinking too. Why potato chips, and not
glucose
tabs? There has to be more to the story that we haven't heard, but
you're
right...in SF anything is possible.

Once I was standing in a cashier line, I was beginning to feel a hypo
coming. As I was starting to shake I grabbed a small chocolate bar,
tore off the cover and ate it. Saved the cover and showed it to the
cashier who scanned the bar code with no comment ...
