A pair of would-be shoplifters gave themselves a fat chance for a clean getaway.

 

Using their body fat to hide the stolen goods, two women allegedly swiped $2,600 of merchandise at an Oklahoma TJ Maxx before being caught in the act, police said.

 

Referring to suspects Ailene Brown, 28, and Shmeco Thomas, 37, Edmond, Okla. Officer James Hamm said the two put items in "areas of their body where excess skin was" including "under their chest and armpits."

 

One of the women, Hamm said, tried to smuggle three pairs of boots underneath her breasts.

 

In total, the roly-poly robbers tried to escape with four pairs of boots, three pairs of jeans a wallet and gloves, police said.

 

The cops said Brown used a knife to slice off security tags during their attempted heist.

 

Both women were arrested for shoplifting and face felony charges.

 

 

I don't normally post news articles but this one is worth sharing. As long as you can keep the puke down it's quite funny.

:icon_lol: :icon_lol:

Funny, but how does four pairs of boots, three pairs of jeans a wallet and gloves at TJ Maxx add up to $2600?

LOL good point! Maybe at Bloomingdales, but definitely not at TJ Maxx!

How the hell can you put 3 pairs of boots under your boobs I am closer to being able to say I have heard it all

Maybe that is after interest is calculated on a TJ's Credit Card for that $500 dollar purchase over the next three years it takes them to pay it back.

Obviously TJMax is profileing or these accused shoplifters wouldn't have been arrested! Next time I go to TJMax I'm only going to wear a black bikini under my coat so they can tell I'm not just another fat shoplifter. All fat people should rise up in protest!

Perhaps they just know what is missing but have not completely finished searching all the rolls yet...
