Court documents show Victoria Strickland, 30, admitted to taking money from her cash register, giving merchandise away and then taking that merchandise to a Sears store in Independence.
Video from that store showed Strickland returned merchandise and employees put credit on a gift card.
The total for all the cash shortages was nearly $2,578.
