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?

Not exactly a shop.
But school venders.
A few years ago, before they took our venders away I often took advantage of the pricing.
With jobs and such like sixthformers were lax with their spending and would often leave 10-20p in the machine, hence it was often possible to purchase chocolate at half price. An empty victory really.
Once it malfunctioned and gave me three quid change for a 50p I put in. I felt a bit mean so used it to buy extra sweets for my friends.
