“I just bought this iPad, but I’d like to return it.” OK, the Walmart clerk must have thought.

Duh. Who would buy an iPad, then return it a few minutes later?

Well, you might return the empty box. (Too lazy for recycling, maybe?)

That’s what a pair of crooks did in Gallatin, Tennessee did.

They walked into a Walmart, bought the iPad. Walked out, walked back in and managed to return the iPad-deprived box with a book inside to give it some heft.

The man and woman were both caught on video surveillance, looking rather calm as they walked out of the store.

Police are still searching for them.
