Should a company fire me for taking a few bags

A couple of years ago the company I worked for noticed on video that I put a few bags in my pocket at the end of the day. This company gets prescription medication ready for customers. When I put these bags in my pocket I didnt even know what I would do with them and figured it is only worth cents under a dollar. When I tried for unemployment they held this against me and I never got any benefits. Since the cost of these bags was so little shouldnt I have been warned about it first before getting fired and should I have fought to get unemployment or would I have never won for unemployment?
      Answer1:theft is theft no matter how small
      Answer2:If you steal from your employer, then the amount is irrelevant. Even though it may only be worth a few cents, its a matter of principle. The company can no longer trust you and as far as their concerned, it migh not be an insignificant amount next time.
      Answer3:Stealing is stealing regardless of the dollar amount involved.
      Answer4:The company had every right to fire you for stealing their property (and the value of the property is irrelevant).
      Answer5:Theft is theft. It really doesnt matter how little you stole.Learn your lesson and move on.
