Dwayne Johnson is making up for past missteps.
The 50-year-old superstar on Monday took to Instagram to document a visit to a 7-Eleven store in Hawaii where he used to shoplift at as a teenager - this time buying out the store's Snickers inventory while picking up the tabs for surprised and starstruck customers.
The wrestler-turned-actor said in the caption of the post that when he was 14, he had routinely swiped a king-size Snickers 'EVERY DAY from 7-11 for almost a year' as he headed to work out at the gym.

'The same clerk was there every day and always just turned her head and never busted me,' the Black Adam star explained.
He continued: 'I’ve exercised a few big demons over the years. I know this one seems VERY SILLY, but every time I come back home to Hawaii and drive by 7-11…I always knew I needed to go in and clean out every Snickers bar they had - the right way.'
Johnson said that 'it was a lot of fun to take care of everybody who walked into 7-11 while I was there,' as it was the least he 'could do considering all the s*** [he] used to steal from here.'
He said that the timeframe was around when his family was evicted from their home in Hawaii amid financial troubles.

Johnson reflected on his past mistakes, saying, 'We can’t change the past and some of the dumb stuff we may have done, but every once in a while we can add a little redeeming grace note to that situation - and maybe put a big smile on some stranger’s faces.'

He walked in the convenience store and purchased around $300 in Snickers and other items for customers. He also tipped the employees for processing the massive purchase.
He told the clerk, 'Thank you so much. I appreciate you. If somebody looks like they're stealing Snickers, give them these so they don't steal them.'
