Shoplifting
When 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?

New Bike
I got a half decent BMX for christmas one year and although disappointed it wasn't the one i was after i realised it had a decent enough frame so i set about trips to Halfords to see how i could pimp it up a bit.
Each Saturday me and a mate would go in there, paw over the brake levers, cables, handlebars, pads etc etc and each week we'd rob a new piece.
The largest single item was a saddle and post and the next and only items left to replace on the bike were the wheels - everything else was as good as it could have been, at Halfords expense.
Pinching a wheel wasn't wise, so i changed the price on a Skyway II mag wheel and paid less than half for it (this is before computers and barcodes of course).
The only thing left to rob was the matching front wheel but before i could go back in there, some cunt nicked the bike.
Imagine that.
Thankfully i was too young to appreciate karma and all that so i learned nothing.
