1) Read all the articles you want from a magazine inside the bookstore and not buy it?

This is okay if it is one article, but not many articles.

2) Using the toilet at a restaurant without purchasing any food there?

YES! When you have to go, you have to go!

3) Staying inside aa all you can eat buffet for two meals?

No.

4) Going through the grocery check-out several times to purchase the same item that states "Only one per customer?"

This is probably note right, but I probably would do it if it was a great deal.

5) Taking more than one paper out of the coin operated news stands?

No. Somebody does that with the Sunday papers near my house and it drives me crazy!

I hope this isn't some type of psychology test because I'm sure I will fail and be banned from here for life. More of my answers

1) Read all the articles you want from a magazine inside the bookstore and not buy it? I have done this before...in fact, recently. The book store is a great place to get out of the heat for a few hours. Isn't that what the chairs in the store are for?

2) Using the toilet at a restaurant without purchasing any food there? I don't see anything wrong here.

3) Staying inside an all you can eat buffet for two meals? I have never done it, but I have a lot of friends that have - I think some of them have spent three meals there.

4) Going through the grocery check-out several times to purchase the same item that states "Only one per customer?" I have never even considered doing this.

5) Taking more than one paper out of the coin operated news stands? That is not a nice thing to do.

1. If you're in one of those huge stores that encourage it, by all means go for it.
2. Just did this Sunday with my 4 y/o. I defy a restaurant manager to tell me no in a situation like that.
3. Yuck - no.
4. Hmmmm...I wouldn't, but I have been known to have someone else buy something that I'm buying on the same trip.
5. No! That's stealing.

1. At a bookstore it is okay. At a convenience store or supermarket, no
2. Is it against the law to do this?
3. No thank you
4. Is counting your three kids as so you can put 4 in your cart the same?

Let's here your opinions !!

1- If I stay longer than 45minutes, it's time to go to the library.
2- The human body waits for no man!
3- Never done it, don't know how I could stay there that long!
4- Done it, I make sure that I don't take the last items on the shelf to do it though.
5- I've stocked those recepticles- I know I'm taking money away from the paper person if I do that. Paper Jobs are no fun and pay little(they aren't union)
