You wanna play, you gotta pay, says John Thomas.Thomas shops at the convenience store several times a week.� And, watching the surveillance video, he can't believe this sort of thing can happen so close to home.Hard times fall on everyone, but it doesn't mean you have to steal...� That's pretty sorry.
