The Grinch decided he needed the cash drawer at the Red Lotus Nutrition shop more than the owners and operators did, stealing the cash drawer and its contents in an overnight break in last night, Monday, December 23rd.
The business has posted their misfortune on their Facebook page telling customers, “We had a break in last night at the Lotus Family. The good news is that they took cash and a very nice cash drawer with them and nobody got hurt. They didn’t take anyone’s meals or anything that we need to start back strong meal prepping for you Thursday. The bad news is that they were able to rip the cameras down before we could see their lowlife faces.”
The post continues, “We hope that our hard earned money gives you the Christmas that you wanted. We are LotusStrong however, and will only use this as a reminder of how grateful we are to have Red Lotus Nutrition and all of you to mutually support our mission. We will be coming back from Christmas break with some amazing meal plan deals for 2020, and even more ways to support your lifestyle and goals.”
The Red Lotus post concludes, “Merry Christmas and have an amazing time with those we all care about most.”
