People taking peelies (coupons) off items in the store

Do you think it is wrong or okay for people to take peelies (coupons) off of items in the store when they don't ever buy that item?

Quote from Pantalaimon :
i agree that it is not illegal but it would be rather embarrassing to be questioned by the security guard... i think that taking all of them today is fine as the promotion expires in 5 days they would just not be used anyway.
So is it ok to take a bottle of milk from the store if the sell by date is today and it's 5 minutes before closing?

What if the Ponds is charged for every one that is redeemed? So Ponds says "Let's offer this promotion and for every one that is redeemed we will have to pay $1 but that's ok becauuse we will sell a $10 product."

Would that make you feel different about it?

And do you know for a fact that this isn't how it works?

I personally know if I saw a coupon missing from an item I might not buy it just becauase I would feel like I was missing out or getting ripped off... so if they are all missing and you cost the company a sale, is that stealing?
