Gekås Ullared has become one of Sweden’s most popular visitor destinations, with thousands of customers every day. For a single year, a full 133 million goods pass through the cash registers, according to Gekås Ullared’s website.
Now, however, a judgment has fallen, which shows, to say the least, naughty theft in the cashier at the department store.

Sisters stole from Gekås Ullared for three days
It was at the end of 2023 that a woman stepped into Gekås Ullared and picked up goods worth SEK 1,100, according to SVT Halland.
When the woman would pay for the goods, she went to the cash register where her sister then worked. The goods were placed on the band, but the majority of them were never scanned into the cash system.
The next day, the sisters carry out the same procedure. Goods worth SEK 2,402 land costs only SEK 358 when the sister at the checkout once again fails to scan goods or delete the goods from the system after they were scanned.

The method is also used a third day. Then two bags of candy and natural candy are scanned as onions, while others are not scanned at all or deleted after scanning. The sum, for ten scanned goods, lands at SEK 192. But the woman leaves the department store with 26 goods – this time worth SEK 5,300.
