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?

Oooh... Just remembered another one!Me and my brother once went into the local video shop and saw that Grand Theft Auto and Grand Theft Auto London (How truly ironic!), were available as a box set for £20! 'Wow' we thought, that's really cheap, 'we'll buy that'. Our next stop that day was the town centre, this had a Virgin Megastore and an HMV. Now, in these shops, the GTA games were selling individually for £20. A lightning bolt of inspiration hits us and we open the box set and took one game back to HMV and one back to Virgin, which we exchanged for credit and went and got even better Playstation games! Result!
I don't even feel guilty about this as HMV and Virgin used to be such rip offs in the the days before play.com!
