What a bargain! Just in time for the holdays, too.

Everything was $5.

Vasthi Marseille and Marline Santelus,  two Boca Raton Macy’s employees, allegedly selected about $1,000 worth of merchandise that they marked down to $5 apiece while working, reports WPBF ABC News-25 in West Palm Beach.Marseille said she knew of another sales associate “who had done unauthorized price adjustments for other employees in the past,” so she figured “why not?” according to the arrest report.

Why not?

How about this reason: So you won’t have a blue Christmas behind bars.
