It’s all in the name of gift-giving _ or at least the guise of it. It seems a lot of consumers are using these sales and retail events to treat themselves to a new little something.

PITTSBURGH (AP) – Pittsburgh police are hoping surveillance video will help them find a man who smashed a storefront window at the downtown Macy’s store and stole 15 to 20 pair of Levi’s jeans on Christmas day.
Officers responded to the burglary alarm about 1 p.m. Wednesday.
The video shows the man grabbing the jeans, which sell for about $60 a pair, and fleeing in a vehicle.
The store called in workers to clean up the glass and board up the broken window, which police say was smashed with a socket wrench or similar type of instrument.
The video shows a Black man wearing a puffy black jacket, black jeans and a black and gray baseball cap.
