Stupid Costco Thieves Think They’ve Gotten Away With It, Until They Open The Door 0
There are few things sweeter than watching justice be served.
Now, let’s just take a moment to appreciate just how fantastic Costco is. Who doesn’t love the free samples and industrial-sized crates of, well, everything?
So when two dumb thieves got caught trying to rob the place, I was totally cheering extra hard for the cops as the crooks got taken down and put in cuffs.
Two thieves attempted to escape through of a fire door with boxes of what appeared to be expensive electronics, but the police were already on to them. Instead of having to kick open the fire door, they simply waited outside for the stunned robbers to appear
Check out the amazing video footage of the takedown here:
As they swung the door open, multiple police officers were ready to make arrests.
One of the thieves even tried to turn back into the store, but it was too late.
It also appears that there was a look-out or getaway driver waiting in the parking lot who the police had already caught. Officers blocked in the driver’s car and one cop can be heard telling another to be sure the driver doesn’t touch her phone to alert the others.
When the thieves exit the store, the alarm on the fire door sounds and within seconds all three crooks are apprehended and arrested by the police.
These officers certainly know what they are doing. Kudos!

Woman Goes Viral For Posting Five-Star Review Of Eyeliner Because It “Didn’t Budge” After Car Accident 0

Anyone who wears makeup and is on the lookout for a new brand will know how useful reviews can be when deciding which one to settle on.
Yes, they’re pretty handy but rarely do they receive any form of viral attention.
Usually, unless the product being reviewed is from a celebrity’s makeup line:
But one particular review did receive an extraordinarily high number of views for a special reason.
And what was that reason? Well, the reviewer in question posted a five-star review of an eyeliner brand because – get this – it “didn’t budge” even after she was caught up in a car accident.
Her name is Shelby, and she is a registered nurse who posted a review of Kat Von D’s ‘Tattoo’ eyeliner on the brand’s website about eight months ago.
In the review, she wrote, “This product is truly amazing. June 28th I was pulled over in my car calling for roadside assistance when a distracted driver hit me going 55mph. I was taken via ambulance to the ER where I remained for eight hours.”
“My mascara was running down my face from crying and all other products had been wiped off in the transfer to the hospital. But not my tattoo eyeliner. I am posting a pic to show you, this product lasts and looks amazing through anything. Never buying any other liner again.”
And as promised, she did share a photo of herself in the hospital bed wearing the eyeliner that hadn’t “budged” along with a neck brace and smudged mascara.
So how did this particular manage to receive such widespread attention?
Well, it had a little something to do with the fact that Lahari Manchikanti, a student a the University of Florida, shared it on her Twitter page.
After the story went viral, Shelby decided to make herself known, saying, “It’s me. Girl, when you find a good product, you have to share the info.”
“As a registered nurse, I work 12-hour shifts so if I do wear makeup, I need it to last. I had worn the eyeliner many times but was still surprised it survive my 12-hour shift, an accident, and some tears!” she told The Independent.
“I took the selfie to send to my mom who was worried and in case the police would need it for evidence. I later posted it on Instagram to share my story and multiple people stated how well my eyeliner stayed.”
“I wrote the review later on after people commented about it on my Instagram. I wrote the review eight months ago on her beauty site so I never thought anything of it. I rarely use Twitter so when my notifications started going off I was so confused! Most people are supportive and laugh with me about it, which I appreciate.”
Many people expressed their sheer delight at the rave review on their own Twitter pages:
You can buy the eyeliner for $20 and, in fact, many people have suggested that Kat Von D Beauty should give Shelby and Lahari lifetime supplies. I mean, they did throw a hell of a lot of promotion their way, after all. Here’s hoping the brand get behind this very reasonable suggestion…
