6
00:00:15.599 --> 00:00:17.960
<v Speaker 1>Eve Day. That's what it's weird to say, it's the

7
00:00:18.079 --> 00:00:20.800
<v Speaker 1>day of Christmas Eve. It's the day. It's the day

8
00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:23.199
<v Speaker 1>before Christmas. That's a whole lot easier to say. And

9
00:00:23.239 --> 00:00:25.199
<v Speaker 1>I've got here a new study that came out this

10
00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:29.079
<v Speaker 1>year about packaged theft during the holiday shipping rush, and

11
00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:32.280
<v Speaker 1>that is something that's really sad. I see sadly people

12
00:00:32.479 --> 00:00:35.000
<v Speaker 1>all the time saying, Hey, somebody stole this off my porch.

13
00:00:35.640 --> 00:00:38.679
<v Speaker 1>Porch pirates don't do that. That's not nice. Well, where

14
00:00:38.679 --> 00:00:43.439
<v Speaker 1>do South Dakota rank in the entire country. We're not

15
00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:45.600
<v Speaker 1>the worst, but we're also not the best. A new

16
00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:50.200
<v Speaker 1>study nationwide from Lobardo Holmes found that South Dakota ranks

17
00:00:50.240 --> 00:00:55.479
<v Speaker 1>number seven in the country for package theft hotspots. Ninety

18
00:00:55.479 --> 00:00:57.320
<v Speaker 1>five percent of Americans, by the way, we'll have a

19
00:00:57.320 --> 00:01:01.000
<v Speaker 1>package delivered this holiday season, nearly have forty eight percent

20
00:01:01.399 --> 00:01:04.680
<v Speaker 1>have had a package stolen. Have you ever had that happen?

21
00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:08.319
<v Speaker 1>I've had packages delivered to the wrong address. We've moved

22
00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:10.079
<v Speaker 1>a few times, and then you know, somehow it got

23
00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:11.599
<v Speaker 1>sent to the wrong address. But I don't know that

24
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:14.959
<v Speaker 1>I've ever had one stolen. Shoppers will spend on average

25
00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:18.560
<v Speaker 1>five hundred and eighty six dollars for an online purchases,

26
00:01:19.040 --> 00:01:22.079
<v Speaker 1>not one purchase, but all of their purchases, making theft

27
00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:26.000
<v Speaker 1>especially costly during the holidays. The average stolen package is

28
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:29.000
<v Speaker 1>worth up to two hundred and four dollars, hitting budgets

29
00:01:29.239 --> 00:01:32.640
<v Speaker 1>that are already being strained by inflation. So again, I

30
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:36.239
<v Speaker 1>can see this is a sad thing that happens. Glad

31
00:01:36.280 --> 00:01:38.159
<v Speaker 1>to know we're not the worst place in the nation.

32
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:41.519
<v Speaker 1>But are you wondering who is? I'm kind of wondering

33
00:01:41.519 --> 00:01:44.200
<v Speaker 1>who is? Good news, I've got that entire list here,

34
00:01:44.359 --> 00:01:47.760
<v Speaker 1>and it might surprise you to know the number one place.

35
00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:50.640
<v Speaker 1>So let's start at number fifty. The place where package

36
00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:54.000
<v Speaker 1>theft happens the least is Florida, And I wonder if

37
00:01:54.040 --> 00:01:55.840
<v Speaker 1>that has to do with maybe it be an older

38
00:01:55.879 --> 00:01:58.239
<v Speaker 1>population and maybe they don't shop online as much. Do

39
00:01:58.280 --> 00:01:59.599
<v Speaker 1>you think that's what it is? I don't know what

40
00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:03.640
<v Speaker 1>it is. Texas is number forty nine. California is forty

41
00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:05.760
<v Speaker 1>eight on the list. These are the places where packages

42
00:02:05.799 --> 00:02:09.080
<v Speaker 1>are shopped are stolen off porches the least, so I

43
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:11.960
<v Speaker 1>told you already. Number seven was South Dakota. We're number

44
00:02:11.960 --> 00:02:15.039
<v Speaker 1>seven on the list. Number six is Alaska, number five.

45
00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:17.879
<v Speaker 1>It's even worse in Rhode Island. Yeah, tiny little royal island.

46
00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:20.240
<v Speaker 1>The one that surprises me here is as we get

47
00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:25.120
<v Speaker 1>to the top, Wyoming is number four. Really, Wyoming, Delaware

48
00:02:25.199 --> 00:02:28.039
<v Speaker 1>is number three. Number two, our neighbors to the north,

49
00:02:28.120 --> 00:02:32.240
<v Speaker 1>North Dakota, Yeah, number two. These are Google searches over

50
00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:35.479
<v Speaker 1>the last twelve months related to stolen packages per capita.

51
00:02:35.960 --> 00:02:38.439
<v Speaker 1>So there are more people checking into hey, somebody stole

52
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:41.639
<v Speaker 1>my package in North Dakota. And then the number one

53
00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:44.840
<v Speaker 1>hotspot is Vermont. That is the state where they're searching

54
00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:49.360
<v Speaker 1>the most for packages being stolen. I've got this entire list,

55
00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:51.280
<v Speaker 1>all of the stuff. I shared it on our social

56
00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:53.520
<v Speaker 1>media yesterday if you want to see it. It's sad.

57
00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:56.599
<v Speaker 1>Don't steal packages and hopefully you get all your stuff.

58
00:02:56.599 --> 00:02:58.479
<v Speaker 1>And here's a great way to make sure you get

59
00:02:58.520 --> 00:03:01.520
<v Speaker 1>your stuff. Walk into a store or hand them money,

60
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:04.520
<v Speaker 1>they'll hand you items and then you take it home. Yeah,

61
00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:06.840
<v Speaker 1>how cool is that. That's a smart way to do it.

62
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:09.719
<v Speaker 1>If you're still looking for a last minute gift idea.

63
00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:12.280
<v Speaker 1>We're not going to be in the office today selling them,

64
00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:14.120
<v Speaker 1>but we do have some Big Sue coupon books that

65
00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:16.759
<v Speaker 1>we are selling as a fundraiser for the Seux Falls fireworks.

00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:26.840
