IIRC, people who make meth have a hard time getting the ingredients for them... Often they will be more than happy to trade a quantity of meth for a couple boxes of shoplifted Sudafed.
Seems another item often bartered for meth is Tide detergent, because it is relatively expensive, but concentrated so it is not huge. Some stores keep it locked up because it is so frequently shoplifted. So you might not need to have money OR perform sex acts to get drugs, assuming you are willing to do a little shoplifting.
Really??!! Well, that's new info. for me. Never heard of that (the Tide connection).
About getting the Sudafed... Mobile Co. is currently implementing some type of crack down on meth production. There was a large # of people arrested last summer all at one time and they are now arresting in "waves". A period of time will pass and then they will make another large # of arrests. I found out a few days ago that they are priming now to make another group of arrests. I figured they would have done so by now. I am sure we will see a group of arrests before the end of this summer. I believe (IMO) they are allowing (looking the other way, but not really) people to make purchases at drug stores in large amounts while watching & tracking them as they do so. In My opinion only, but I don't think that happens so much in Baldwin Co. I don't think Baldwin Co. would let people continue to make purchases with the intent to track their activities and connections. I believe the ingredients are out there in the community but those who are making those purchases are being watched like a hawk.
Hopefully this has nothing to do with Brittney at all BUT Where Is She?? I was so hoping that the possible spotting in Tennessee would be her. It sounds like such a match.
