Have any of you shoplifted before? - Who says crime is only considered a "man and minority thing?"

[Lesbian Grandma]

When I worked at walmart (almost a decade ago now) I would find a ton of crap while zoning that people only stole part of or opened and didn't want (like blind bag toys) and shove the leftover bits or little toys in my vest pockets and bring the packaging to claims to fill out a theft form lol

Now that I have a good job that I don't want to lose for a stupid reason I stopped.

I have not nor will I ever steal hundreds of dollars in router bits from Black BIPOC Owned businesses (Lowes), and if I did I wouldn't be posting hypothetical shoplifting stories on Kiwifarms. I love baggy pants.

Nice try, feds.

But seriously though, my biggest fear is accidentally forgetting a small item to check out. It would then cause an employee to run after me and tackle me to the ground because apparently I'm a filthy thief when in fact I'm just a retarded forgetful person.

I very rarely joke about it with staff and such and they will often laugh and say "They don't pay us enough" but still I'm always worried about being accosted by an eager security officer.

Unless you live in a shit neighborhood or a place where shoplifting is common, you will be fine.

I bet all the moralfags pirate movies.

I shoplifted a tiny bit some years back with self checkout. Nothing major but some tomatoes here and there etc. to make the budget last the month.

I wasn't starving but never stole luxury stuff - arguably that just allowed me to spend the money elsewhere, potentially on a "luxury" item or a bus ticket. I think there's probably more nuance to it than you're either a holocaust skeleton stealing bread or a spoiled middle class adult with arrested development. Ultimately though, as with pirating, it comes down to wanting something but deciding not to pay for it, so you can go through life more easy. Hurting the megacorp is delusional larp.

A taboo against shoplifting makes sense in a high trust society.

Since the people that rule us, eagerly supported by big business, have decided to turn society into a third world shithole through mass immigration, those old rules no longer really apply.

So… Steal away Kiwis.

Don’t let the niggers and spics be the only one getting five finger discounts.

Whites who proudly admit to shoplifting in this thread aren't so different than the niggers they hate. If you're going to commit a crime you can come up with a thousand justification for it no matter what the crime is.

You’re not going to get brownie points for being the honorable white guy in todays society, sorry.

I stole a loaf of bread.

Spoiler: Real advice

If you are actually desperate for food, most cities have food banks that you can fill out a form at and receive a care package of food, at least monthly if not weekly. You can also look into clothes pantries and other necessities for living, if the town is large enough. If you're stealing for the heck of it though, I guess this is irrelevant.

As a teen out of poverty or for a thrill, these days I've got enough money there's no temptation to do so. I once worked as a shopping cart attendant and when I quit I stole one of the keys for the cart pushing machine out of spite for my bosses because they were cunts.

 

[Benjamin Spooner Briggs]

No, I want to go to heaven so I may be with God who commanded me not to steal.

 

[Eva Braun]

Lmao @ this thread. Most criminals are men and the few female criminals shoplift mostly. It‘s so much of a problem my city has started a support group for kleptomanic women.

So tell me fellow women farmers: Are you secretly addicted to shoplifting?

 

[UnfortunateReality]

Yes, I've stolen a lot. Like a ridiculous amount of stuff. Got caught a lot too, but never police called on me. Only warnings + individual store bans.

 

[twentyZeroOne]

Moon cricket behavior

 

[Gaysquirt]

I will never steal because I want to go to heaven and discuss algebra with Jesus and Jewish Bronze Age history with Moses

 

[Frogget-me-not]

You will never get me to admit to my crimes, glownigger! Even through a kiwi poll!

 

[hiringmayhem4]

I've pirated movies and shows, just saying cause I saw someone mention that. Now, stealing like things cause you're too cheap to spend money or to feel some kind of thrill is gay.

When I was a kid shoplifting was a rite of passage for bored suburban teenage girls who had nothing better to do. It was socially defiant, mildly risky status seeking behavior, usually done while hanging out in groups at the mall. 2-3 girls would go into stores (usually one thief and two watchers/blockers/distractors) and would return later with exciting tales to tell and to show off what they stole. Usually candy that was shared and jewelry that was swapped. I stopped when one of my GFs got caught and was held in some backroom somewhere for a few hours until her mother was called to come pick her up.

I can't imagine trying to shoplift now, with all the hidden rfid tags, video cameras, etc. Back then the only preventative measures retail could employ was to hire undercover floor walkers who you could identify right away because they were always so obvious. And now that I think back on it, they were always men too. Men in jeans, wearing baseball caps and black leather motorcycle jackets. Maybe moonlighting cops? Cop wannabees?

I guess management thought that teen girls intent on shoplifting wouldn't notice them checking them out and following them around the stores. As if. Kek.

Kids these days will never experience the joy of walking into a stationary store and leaving with a backpack full of new markers and pens as a middle schooler

One time I took a single pack of salmon from the co op and a paki (just like the wojak bottom left) grabbed the back of my bike wheel to try and stop me leaving. I calmly kept cycling. It's against their policy to physically touch shoplifters so he probs lost his job. Think he wanted an excuse to touch a white girl tbh.

Other than that I recently quit, but had been doing it daily for about 10 years and never had any sort of reaction like that. I've been able to save tens of thousands of pounds and was able to put it towards a house deposit on a home in London.

Also I recently discovered r/shopliftingmemes. Very enterntaining to read. Oddly satisfying and some of the hauls are really impressive. shopliftingmemes2 just got banned unfortunately

I used to steal packs of Pokémon cards from any store that would just leave them out when I was a kid.


Please lord forgive me for my sins, not of theft, but for being a Pokémon enjoyer.

Same, I wouldn't intentionally shoplift but at least a couple of times a year I forget to ring up my La Croix on the bottoms of my shopping cart at the self checkout.
