I most definitly agree with Disgusted and Shopper Location. I live right across the street from Belk and I will GLADLY put money into driving to Greenville. You know, where there are employees in the store! I bet the guys just walked in and took the money and no one even noticed because NO ONE WORKS THERE!! HA!

Awesome job apprehending the criminals. I live in Pitt County and shop in Washington. Are you paying attention Pitt County Sheriff's Department? There is a reason Pitt County crime rate is so high.

TO: Shopper Location. GET OVER IT! They are entitled to have their opinion just as you have. Did you miss the post that said despite your approval, the Belks continues to be profitable? HELLO!!!! Who cares if you right the letter, or stop shopping? Furthermore, this is an anonymous message board...how exactly will you prove which employee was expressing their first amendment right? If you truly believe that you are no idiot, what is the need for all the fuss? People like you…...
