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?

Repost: Free munchies in SydneyReposted from here
After a night on the piss in Sydney I decided the 24hr convenience store was beckoning for a snack on the way home.
Upon entering the store I noticed an unusual sound... turns out to be the loud snoring of the store assistant who was face down asleep on the counter, puddle of dribble and everything.
SO spying that other shoppers had left piles of coins on the counter for their purchases I did what any normal person would do....
I helped myself to:
1 "Mrs Mac's" steak & cheese pie (hot)
1 large bag of dark choc maltesers...
1 bag of milk choc too! :)
1 Tube of pringles
1 500ml bottle of "Solo" traditional lemonade
1 pron mag
1 not so pron mag
pair of cheap sunglasses (disguise)
With my booty of drunken "essentials" I considered my position... Yup, here I am... door is that way! So went home to enjoy my spoils!
Would have been rude to wake him, plus this way I got all this stuff for free!
So my lucky streak, the 10 minutes of drunken shopping while the shop assistant slept.
I discovered he was regularly sleepy and visited the store regularly over the next few weeks :)
In my defence I did resist the urge to pocket all the loose change on the counter.
