What we have here is basically an unglamorous, but just as effective Ocean's Eleven operation. Reports place a large group of burglars, between eight and ten people total, on the scene at a Costa Mesa Bloomingdale's location at around 3:45am last night making off with around $100,000 in merchandise. The company already had an epic store credit glitch a little while back and this only compounds the hurt.

The burglars broke in through the store's glass doors and immediately made their way to the handbags and jewelry, loading the goods into three cars and a U-Haul truck. All told, they were in and out in about five minutes before fleeing from the scene. That's some fucking efficiency: $20,000 per minute and anywhere between $10,000 and $12,500 per person if you divide the take evenly. Anyone looking to make a buck, hit me up in the comments. I'll drive.
