Three women walked into the grocery store and grabbed a cart just like they were customers. They filled it with merchandise and took off through the exit doors. The suspects hopped into their getaway vehicle which was a SUV. The trio drove like maniacs through the parking lot to escape.

In the description of the suspects, it sounds like they were dressed for success. One of the ladies was wearing leather pants and another was rocking a short skirt. The overall appearance of them wasn't like your ordinary average thief. Maybe, they had dates after the robbery and that was what the meat and liquor were for.
