Transcript from robbery report:
Officer: Ma’am, can you describe the person who stole the soap?
Victim: He was manly, yes….
Officer: And the soap, ma’am. Was there a sentimental value to it for you? It must be very special if someone liked it so much he would steal it.
Victim: But I like it, too!

Good one, Ber & Nan. Unfortunately, the police only had the fact that he made his get-away on a bike to go on.

I wonder…was the soap in an intacted bar or all sliced up into strips? Who leaves a bar of soap in their car anyway. Especially someone who shops at expensive places selling a bar of soap for $1. You wouldn’t find Walmart selling a bar of soap for $1. Oh wait…Walmart would probably market it as a one-year supply and charge $5. That’s value pricing for ya.
