Theft is rampant.

Was in Home Depot the other day after not being there for quite a while. The Ryobi tools were behind locked caged doors. This was something new. Ryobi tools !!!!!!

And here I thought I was safe. I have had Sthil stuff stolen. I have had Milwaukee stuff stolen. I have had catalytic converters stolen. But the thieves always just walk past my many Ryobi tools I had when actively farming with a large shop and a couple of service trucks and not touch them. Not worth stealing (although I have had very good service from the many I have bought over the years).

Am I going to have to start locking up my Ryobi power tools???? Say it ain't so!!!!!!!
