I lol'ed when I saw that. Also it just don't make no sense. Wouldn't any purchase have some sort of record? Why would you go with that narrative?? I'd be sweating if I was her lawyer.

Small green grocer type stores often work on a cash basis, cards cost them money.

Yes but I imagine foot traffic wouldn't be so high and it would be the same people behind the counter who may recognise whether someone has visited the store. But I suppose it just becomes he said she said.

Edit: I also think if it indeed was purchased then the cops will need to get on the case to trace where they came from asap. Because if there is indeed something wrong in the supply then it's possible that these are circulated elsewhere on the market.
