Is it just us, or do squirrels just seem to get away with everything these days?

The Kim family suspected some mischief was afoot in their Toronto convenience store, Luke's Grocery, when they heard a bit of rustling near the candy bars. After some investigation, they had found the culprit: squirrels. Little candy-thieving squirrels.

On this Youtube page (hilariously named StopThatSquirrel DropThatBar), the Kim family posted this video of a squirrel waltzing into the store like it owns the place, snatching the candy bar and running the hell out of there before it gets caught.

Apparently, this is not the first candy caper of its kind the family experience. The family estimates that it has lost at least 40 candy bars to squirrels over the years.

You win this time, squirrel. Enjoy your delicious stash.
