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?

I took place in what I can only refer to as a very dadaist crime spree, between the ages of around 8 and 14, where I would steal steal AND STEAL AGAIN...but only free stuff off the front of magazines. Sweets, toys, and pretty cool stuff too. I once lifted half a dozen pairs of flip-flops thanks to the new Cosmo summer edition.
To add to this pettiest of thefts, I sold a huge box full of said junk for a tenner at a car boot sale for a tenner.
Crime pays kids!
