I think this video of Nick Swardson’s standup about sums up my opinion. Particularly at about 1:20.

HEY GRANNY! THE ANTI-WRINKLE CREAM IS NOT WORKING!
Maybe it is and we have no idea what she would look like had she not been greasing up.
Arrested 60 times! Hey Granny you suck at shoplifting... stop it.
That's a woman? Time to start using anti-wrinkle cream, lady. Oh, wait...
Also, how the hell did she fit all that stuff under her clothes? What on earth was she wearing?!
It's too late to use wrinkle cream
you waited to long, but if you insist on using the cream pay for it don't think that since it's not working it's for free. There is a no freebie if not satisfied at this point it wouldn't work anyways cash needs to present when taking out of the store.
Im in late 20's and 90% of face creams and wrinkle creams suck.While she shouldn't have stole them the claims that they make on the jars are criminal themselves.
Those companies are making so much money everyday and that to me is a larger crime.
They promise to get rid of wrinkles,promote new growth of collagen,even out complexion,firm and get noticable difference etc but it reality all they do is moisturise abit which you could have got from olive or coconut oil or $5.00 vit E cream.
Why are they allowed to make such extravagent claims on skincare when on majority of other products they're not allowed to?
Grandma Walton turned to a life of crime when John boy left the mountain.
