Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

As someone often paid to think like a criminal ( in order to stop criminals ), these look like a prime opportunity for a violent cartel to both stock up on ammo and launder money.

Come to think of it, that may be a meta-joke I missed in Borderlands.

The photo recognition ought to put a bit of a damper on it, but I feel like a motivated "investor" could find work-arounds (or just unwitting "mules").

I mean, it looks to be in a grocery store near the front door. I'm not sure how much expensive, highly portable ammo needs to be in there to make a B&E viable, but I bet it can hold at least that much.
