- Hooded winter jacket with large inside pocket to conceal identity and carry gun: $65.00

Priceless.
Not so off-topic… a successful robbery system requires not only the existence of all the individual parts, but their correct arrangement and marshalling.

I agree with DaveScot. Clerk is obviously a member of the bizarre and ubiquitous “gun culture.” Not only that, he’s left-handed.
