This won't get picked up until next stock take and by then CCTV will be full of other people buying clothes!! He isn't about to hand himself in and may well even be leaving that job, hence why he took it upon himself to heavily discount his soon to be ex-employers stock!!

Yeah he can pocket 700 and do a runner.

With that sort of cash he'll live like a kind for at least six minutes...

If MataHari didn't spot him flapping or looking nervous then chances are it isn't his first offense! Who knows how much he has pocketed that day, week or month! If they have only just done a stock check then he could do this almost to his hearts content, pocketing all that he reaps if he is due to leave Dubai forever. 700 a day is a big load in a month to a person used to earning 3k a month maybe?

I was under the impression that you can live like a king for about an hour for 500. Unless, I suppose, you suffer from TGFKASE's strapline...
