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?

aha!what they should have done is gone back, paid for an identical microwave, then next day returned the dead one for a refund- hey presto free working microwave! i have done this with stuff i've legitimately bought, found to be faulty but have no receipt for.
(maybe a top tip folks!)
IN FACT! another top tip, I used to shop in TKMaxx a lot when a penniless teenager. They'd have loads of shite reduced to 2/3 quid, done so with a sticker, so I'd take said cheap item, along with an expensive item, into changing room and swap sticker over (tricky, due to cuts or perforations in the sticker presumably aimed to stop you doing so- accompany yourself with a craft knife and pritt stick and jobs a good 'un!)if you damage cheap price tag no worries just rip off and leave on changing room floor then return item to person on way out. Not exactly shoplifting but saved me loadsamoney!
