There is a wool shop that never has any customers, in the center of town, so not cheap real estate, and I saw someone go in there after looking in the windows, and got yelled at to get out.

It's in Switzerland, so shady financial stuff isn't exactly rare.

Not defending this particular wool shop but often those sorts of specialty shops also have an online side. Weird that they would throw customers out though

Eh, it also depends on where you live. I don't know what it's like over there, but we have an addiction crisis where I live. People steal many odd things, sometimes because they like them, sometimes to sell them, and other times because they hatch a crazy plan that they give up on halfway through.

We definitely have certain people that are regularly kicked out of stores due to prior misbehaviour. (Assult, theft, biohazard stuff, etc.) Sometimes there's only so much that you can deal with from the same person, you know? It can get to the point where you just ban someone.
