printing your own sticker requires way more prep than ripping one off a pack of ground beef and sticking it on a pack ribeye steak.

Absolutely, but it's also a low barrier. I think there's a lot of organized theft comparative to opportunistic.

You can buy a battery operated portable bluetooth based printer to print barcodes from your phone, for less than $15. It'll even fit in your pocket.

I mean, you need to prepare having that printer on you, but it's not all that difficult to print on demand while in the store.
