"Don’t buy chapsticks in boxes…. Only plastic wrapped." A CVS shopper accused a woman of using an intimate item in the store and then putting it back on the shelf, in a now viral video.
In the TikTok video, which has surpassed 256,000 views, the user Zebedee (@Zebedee679) shared his experience and then captured the incident involving a woman he deemed to be acting inappropriately.
“Check this out, I’m at CVS and this girl went in the CapSticks, put the ChapStick on her lips and then put it back on the box,” he began in the clip. “There go the box right.”
The man then cut away to a shot of the line at the pharmacy, where several other shoppers were waiting for assistance.
“There, bam,” he said, zooming in on a woman wearing a flower dress. “Come on man, you opened a ChapStick put it on your lips, and put it back on the damn shelf: That’s sick.”
Upon notifying an employee regarding the situation, the individual chose to face the woman directly. He grabbed the lip balm box, following the employee's confiscation, and approached her.
“They might want to pay for this,” the man said while putting the lip balm on the counter in front of a cashier assisting the woman and a man she was with. “She opened it. She put the ChapSticks on her lips, then she put it back in the box and put it on the shelf.”
The man then called her behavior “sick” and walked away.
