So a man's life to you is worth five bucks in store credit out of the pockets of a multi-billion dollar corporation? That's cold.
But seriously, this is about as victimless a crime as there can be. Don't start about how the guy who worked there could have lost his job or whatever either, since he works there to this day. I have never out-and-out stolen anything from a store since I was about five.
I'm sorry, but when you're as constantly strapped for cash as me, it's kind of hard to feel sorry for the big guy.
