$130

 

To see why...the store is out $100 when the theft occurs.....when the guy comes back and buys $70 worth of stuff the store gets back $70 but also loses $70 worth of merchandise....so.....they are back where they started....down $100.....giving the guy back $30  means they are now down $130

 

 

cool cool cool

$100

 

He took $100, then he gave it back so the store lost nothing. But then they had to give him $70 worth of stuff and $30
