Florida woman uses 'one more item' excuse at Winn-Dixie to steal $330 worth of groceries, deputies say
MARION COUNTY, Fla. - A Marion County woman has found herself behind bars after concocting a scheme to steal nearly $330 worth of groceries from Winn-Dixie this week, according to deputies.
Sarah Howe was arrested and charged with misdemeanor retail theft after the incident that unfolded at Winn-Dixie on East Highway 40 in Silver Springs on Nov. 6, according to an arrest affidavit from the Marion County Sheriff's Office.
Deputies responded to the grocery store on Tuesday in reference to the retail theft that occurred the day before, the report said. The manager said a woman, later identified as Howe, allegedly stole from the store on Monday.
Howe was checking out when she told the cashier she needed to grab another item, according to the affidavit. She said she needed to take the shopping cart with her "so that she could balance while she walked to get the other item," but that's when she walked out of the store, passing all points of sale.

Years ago my friends husband was a bank manager and told us this story. A customer went to the teller window and handed her a note, he was robbing her. She gave him money and left the note. The police made a arrest immediately. He used the back of his paycheck stub to write the note. It had his info on it. 😂😂😂 he really thought that one through. Can’t make this $ tuff up.
