the fact that technically dumpster diving is illegal but the supermarkets won’t prosecute you if you’re caught because they don’t want it getting out how much usable food they throw away makes me want to walk into the ocean

daily reminder to only shoplift from big chain stores (walmart, hot topic, dollarama) and not family owned buisnesses‼️

[lyftofalifetime]

Almost everything at a hardware store is buy one get one free because all you have to do is tell the cashier you brought the first one from home to help you find the second.

BORROWING GUIDES: how to borrow from pacsun!

*DISCLAIMER* I am not responsible for anything done by anyone who reads this post, these tips are simply for roleplay purposes.

NOTE: if you plan to lift something bulkier (sweat pants, hoodies, jeans, ect) get a shopping bag from another store (preferably a more structured one, a paper one is my go to. if its clear or semi transparent make sure you keep a hoodie or something in it so you can hide what your borrowing in it). you can get this from either buying something or asking a store for a bag for your jacket/hoodie. you'll look suspicious if you do that though, so i'd recommend asking from a store you don't plan to lift from. good places to ask from are vs, pink, lush, bath and body works, aerie, ect. or bring one of your own, once again paper shopping bags are the best imo or a structured bag.

1) find something you like (tank top, t shirt, long sleeve, pants, leggings, sweatpants, hoodie, ect) and inspect for ink tags/non removable ones. if there aren't any, great! find a few items (the less the more believable the next steps will be and its best if they aren't bulky) and just hold them.

2) pretend to browse around and gather bigger bulkier objects (i recommend sweatpants, sweatshirts, jeans)that you don't plan to actually lift. pile them on top of the item(s) you actually want, make sure its layered so the item you're trying to lift is not visible. i'd also recommend picking items with pockets and ugly items as decoy items, this will make step 6 a lot easier for you.

3) head to the changing rooms. if ones already opened, go in there. if there isn't one don't be shy and go ask an employee to unlock one for you, just don't act suspicious. the employee will likely ask how many items you have, make sure not to say the actual number. i typically say the amount of fake items (the ones you're not actually lifting) so when i put them on the "no" racks it looks the most believable it can be.

4) when you get in the dressing room remove the paper tags. inspect and make sure there's no other tags. put the items you're lifting into your bag or if your taking something thin you can always put it on under a hoodie and wear it out of the store.

5) DO NOT leave tags in the dressing rooms. employees will suspect you. if there are already tags in there, clean up the other lifters messes. the employees won't know they aren't from you and will suspect you. however, pacsun employees typically dgaf about you so if you accidentally make a mistake it won't be too huge.

6) bring tags out of the dressing room with you. you can stuff them into jean pockets (or any pockets) of the decoy items you brought with you. if the decoy item is really f***ing ugly less people will try it on, and therefor the less likely the tags will be found. put them on the try on racks provided for clothes people don't end up liking or put them back where you found them.

7) leave! that is, unless you want to actually buy something. in that case i'd most recommend to use cash, its riskier to use a card at a store you lift from because then they have your name if any evidence of you lifting surfaces.

JEWELRY: most of their packaging is chipped, so unless you plan to un-package it in the dressing room (and hide the packaging) i wouldn't recommend taking any, you will get beeped.

EXTRA TIPS:

-pacsun has a "no chase" policy, so if somehow you do get beeped on, run. the employees can't follow you so just avoid that location for a while.

-be polite to employees! other than being a good person in general, being nice to them should also help keep them off your back, even though pacsun employees usually aren't very in your face.

-wear a mask!! not only does it help with the pandemic, it also is an excuse to hide 2/3 of your face. this way they wont even know what most of your face looks like, and most people look like 2 different people with and without their masks on.

update on my lifter baby sis

my sis freaking out bc shoplifted $8 facewash

RIGHT UNDER A CAMERA

I just silently showed her the huge bag of approx $4.5k of my various haul loot and told her not to freak out

she also got caught at sephora months ago (concealing RIGHT UNDER A CAM AGAIN)

but the LP man quietly asked her to go back to wherever it was she concealed, put the stuff in her purse in a shopper bag, and then come bag and give him the shopper

he told her he didn’t want her to get in trouble so she could just give back the stuff and it would only look like she changed her mind

and to please not steal anymore bc she is young and it isn’t worth a $35 lipstick

…that is so sweet. btw she has totally sworn off lifting

and she didn’t tell me bc she thought I would be disappointed. BUT she also admitted that of all the people in the world she thought I would never lift bc I was “morally above it” (for which I feel guilty, but she doesn’t judge either)

tbh I told her I was proud that she wanted something so much that she had the guts to take a risk just to have it

also told her not to fucking lift anymore 😂 honestly she doesn’t have the right kind of sticky fingers for it, she’s the most skittish jumpy sus person ever when she’s NORMALLY shopping. she swears never to lift again and I believe that

also told her I promised to stop soon (I do, that’s the truth and it was my plan long before I got caught) and if she REALLY WANTED SOMETHING Ima buy it OR if I can’t buy it, *I* will lift it for her before I quit

i reminded her that we are not bad people - but we are criminals doing bad things. she said she still admires and respects me bc I don’t try to excuse that. …she also said she was terrified and v impressed that I took so much and didn’t get caught for so long

…so now that’s another person for whom I am reconsidering lifting.

Haul that got me caught

Sorry, I don’t feel like putting prices

Total $232.98

the second picture is for my friend that went with me. i am okay, just a little on edge, but at Claire’s the manager asked us where a ring that she saw my friend holding went, and yeah,, i tried to get out of it, but couldnt. no cops were called, she just told me to get out and not come back. dont expect anything for a while, im pretty bummed.

[lyftofalifetime]

Always remember that lifting is illegal. I’m not trying to sound preachy, but there are consequences if you get caught.

Always be careful, always be vigilant, always be stealthy. There is no way to be “too” careful. If your fool proof plan has 80 steps, don’t do 79 steps. Do them all.

Material things are great, but not at the expense of your name, reputation, and freedom.

Don’t get greedy, don’t get cocky, and stay on top of your game.

[lyftofalifetime]

Guess who’s going to have to start shoplifting food and necessities to get by?
