I’m Batman!

I thought my plan was perfect. Toss the big ol’ store wallet (there must have been about $200 in it) behind the huge stacks of 2L pop bottles stored in the back room at the time, and they’d be crazy to stick around long enough to dig it out and risk being caught while robbing me.
In hindsight, there were two mistakes with this plan:
1) I forgot to hide my own wallet too. It was still in my pocket! They never asked for it (freakin’ AMATEURS!), but in the big picture having my own wallet taken would have cost me more in money and annoyance then the store losing money.
2) It didn’t occur to me that, assuming they didn’t dig the wallet out from behind all those crates of pop, I was just making more work for myself later since someone would have to do it. D’oh!

This is hands down my favorite strip so far. I’ve read it a few times and that last panel made me laugh every time.

What about the change? I mean, you had to have change right? This story line has me hooked.

Of course we had change! This was in Canada, where we have both $1 and $2 coins in lieu of paper money. There was a pretty large change pocket on the wallet and the whole thing could get pretty heavy after a while if a lot of people came by paying with loonies and toonies.
