Robberies happening at luxury stores when the unemployment rate's above 9%? Quel surprise.

Although $1,000 handbags, yeesh!

It's the method that's interesting, since we've had a bunch of these "grab and runs" of late, possibly by New Yorkers up for the day.

...$9500. For just nine purses. So each purse was 'worth', on average, over $1000. Four figures. For a purse.

Shame on the thieves for thieving, natch, but at the same time, WTF?
