ShopliftingWhen I was young and impressionable and on holiday in France, I followed some friends into a sweet shop and we each stole something. I was so mortified by this, I returned them.
My lack of French hampered this somewhat - they had no idea why the small English boy wanted to add some chews to the open box, and saw it as an attempt by a nasty foreigner oik to contaminate their stock. Not my best day.
What have you lifted?

I got 'banned for life' from BHS for stealing sweetsfrom the eatery at the front of the store. I think I was about 9 at the time.
However, I had the last laugh - I've just furnished my house, and went to Ikea for my soft furnishings, tables and lamps instead. Which means they lost a couple of hundred pounds worth of business.
Thing is, I'm sure if I went in no-one would recognise me, as I used to walk through the store twice a day on my way to work. But buy anything? They can fuck off.
