You’re 100% wrong here. There are a couple ways I’m aware of to go about selling personal care items and medicines for profit.
-Sell them to a broker/fence who sells to ‘bodegas’ and other retail stores who buy discounted stolen merchandise
-Box it up and ship it to Amazon and have Amazon fence it for you (seriously). I’m sure Amazon is aware but doesn’t care.

Shoplifting under $1000 isn’t prosecuted in a lot of places, which enables the above behavior.
