My favorites:
- “Awe thanks, you too! ☺” (as if I misheard them)
- *shakes head* “diarrhea”
If people are suspicious of you, that’s already a fuck-up. Be there regularly in walking attire with a bag or coat or whatever, buying cheap things. When you take shit buy SOMETHING on your way out. Come on.
In the States, at Walmart, someone’s entire job is to stand at the door and ask to see receipts.
Edit: Also I’m lowkey offended and annoyed that you assume I’m a noob and, as such, wrote your comment with a condescending tone
I am definitely way too condescending to people, but your post comes off like instructing others that being in that situation is okay. Shoplifting varies widely in risk depending how insane everyone involved is. Years ago I would take enough food to eat, that’s not me trying to show off my elite skills. I think the frequency of shoplifting required to survive calls for one billion percent more effort and fastidiousness. You gotta buy a seltzer on the way out!!!
I’m murican too yes
Yeah we’re talking about different kinds of shoplifting 😅 I suppose I should’ve posted this to c/illegalism, but I wanted to support this instance
Well to be even more thorough you want to have a cart and buy some cheap stuff that looks bulky etc etc you know. Yeah that’s the only kind of shoplifting people should be doing around insane murderers?
Yeah that’s the only kind of shoplifting people should be doing
I mean, I think it’s obvious that I disagree?
Oh it just occurred to me why you’re saying the thing about buying something. Even when I shop like a regular customer, I still decline to show my receipt, both as personal practice and to help destigmatizate it for anyone who is actually stealing
I dl not show a receipt at places where I do not lift, which since I am retired from being a rapscallion means everywhere. The only time I can feel comfortable treating security personnel with basic human decency is when I view them as cosigning my theft.
By the way what happens if you leave without showing them the receipt at costco? Do they straight up kill you with a gun? Do all the wypipo descend on you in a mob? (Never shopped there it’s too far from home)
Lol idk I’ve never shopped at Costco. I did experiment with sneaking in just to see if I could, but I didn’t get anything
Lol I did that the other day actually by mistake. I went into this big box restaurant supply store since I was convinced I could somehow buy an appliance for merely 120% what you get online (wrong they’re all $700 for no reason it was hilarious). Ate a bunch of free samples, rare tuna and stuff I was like damn, then on the way out they were like you can’t buy the overpriced appliance without a membership and ur not even supposed to be in here.
What I mean is, did you get any meatballs tho?
