One employee gets her phone out to take a recording.
After filing the bags with as much as they can carry, the men calmly turn around to leave.
The clip was taken on Monday (October 28) in Ashford, Middlesex, as reported by Need to Know.
The clip was posted on X where it racked up more than 54,000 views.
Commenters were shocked that security didn’t step in to stop the thieves.
Blake joked: “In crocs too. Knowing there’s no need to run.”
Another commenter said: “But it’s crazy that if the alarm goes off for my shopping I paid for, all hands on deck.”
A third user said: “Where’s the security?”
Daniel St Louis said: “The guy is standing there like ‘not that one mate. That’s a Chardonnay’.”
A fifth person added: “Shoplifting is on another level. The worst part is that it is tolerated, as nothing has been done to arrest them.”
A spokesperson for Surrey Police said: “An investigation is ongoing after we received a report of a theft from Sainsbury’s on Church Road in Ashford on Sunday morning, (27 October).
“The theft occurred at around 8.45 am and involved two male suspects who stole over £200 worth of items.
“Officers responded within six minutes of the 999 call, but when they arrived on the scene, the suspects had already fled.
“We take reports of shoplifting seriously and where there are lines of inquiry, we will pursue these. If you have any information that may help our investigation, please contact us quoting PR/45240123395.”
