Georgia woman finds seemingly deserted Kia dealership. Then a quick calendar check explains everything: ‘Could have been the biggest car heist against Kia ever’

Seems like an honest mistake.

A Georgia woman’s visit to a Kia dealership in a small town outside metro Atlanta has sparked discussion online after she shared video footage showing what appeared to be an unattended showroom with its front door unlocked on a Sunday. The woman, who posts on TikTok as The_Wealth_creator (@the_wealth_creator), said she visited Kia of Bremen in Bremen, Georgia, and found the dealership seemingly empty despite being able to walk inside.

Her videos have drawn attention from viewers who questioned why the building appeared accessible when no employees were visible. In the first video, the creator documented her experience as she walked through the car dealership. “Is this normal?” she asked while recording.

According to her account, she initially stopped by around 1 p.m. and assumed employees might be in a meeting. When she returned later, she said the situation appeared unchanged. The video shows her walking through the showroom while calling out for staff. “Hello. Hello,” she said.

She cleared the situation up later

In the post, she goes on to note that the front door remained open and that she could hear what sounded like a television playing somewhere in the building. “I don’t know if it’s just closed on Sundays, but I wouldn’t still expect the front door to be open,” she said in the video.

In a follow-up video, the creator shared an update after returning to the dealership the following day and speaking with a salesperson. According to her account, the employee told her the dealership should have been locked and that customers should not have been able to enter the building while it was closed.

She also joked about the unusual situation, telling viewers, “This could have been the biggest car heist against Kia ever.” The follow-up video included footage from her return visit, which showed employees present and normal business operations underway.

Georgia is not a “blue laws” state

The confusion also highlights a patchwork of laws that continue to affect car buyers nationwide. Roughly a dozen states still maintain restrictions on Sunday vehicle sales, often called “blue laws,” which trace their origins to laws that limited commercial activity on Sundays. Some states also impose partial restrictions rather than outright bans.

Historically, these laws reflected religious traditions that treated Sunday as a day of rest. Several states have retained the laws even as other Sunday business restrictions have disappeared.

In Georgia, however, no statewide law prevented the Bremen dealership from opening that Sunday. Based on the creator’s follow-up video, the more likely explanation was much simpler: the business had closed for the day, and someone apparently failed to lock the front door.
