I've always liked to go to stores when I am stoned and steal merchandise from the shelves. The other day I smoked pot and went to a nearby Target. I took a couple of cool shirts and left without paying. I know my ways around this store and nobody seems to care anyway..! The people that work there are very cool and they do not seem to notice.. Of course, I have money and I am only doing it to be cool .. Wow I am really stoned right now too!!
man, that is funny... i used to shoplift a great deal. i didn't believe that certain things should be "paid" for. But lately i have come to realize everything comes with a price. funny thing, idk why, but i used to think food should be free. so i would just steal it from safeway or wal-mart. but now i think, the packaging, and all that is what makes it cost. now, if i came across a cow and harvested him, that should be free. the cow should be free, if you know what i mean :/ just think about who and what your shoplifting effects. dont let it effect your freedom. peace
i just steal little things that i need but dont want to pay for. some little shit is just ridiculous, but only during the winter.
I used to shoplift when I was younger (13-15) with friends. It gave me a great rush PLUS i had no money hahaha. But just be careful!! a couple of my friends were caught on several occasions. On one of these occasions, 2 of my friends had to go to court and serve community service hours and well as taking classes (learning about the law and shit). And that was when they were 13! Just think of the consequenses.
if this was the right thread to express our thoughts on major corporations such as wal-mart, then we'd have a great discussion going.
i would only steel lighters or cigars from gas stations or walmart etc, hell we would even steal eye drops beucase we didnt want to spend out DRUG MONEY!!!!!!
yeah i used to steal shit all the time but then i got arrested for it me and my friend had like $300 worth of shit i had to take some class on not stealing and do some community service and now it's off my record. but the police didn't find the $150 bracelet i had so i still got that out of it! lol. i just take like small stuff from where i go like lipgloss or a lighter or bras or something hah...bras are way too expensive.
What? Why isn't this the right thread? Do you need me to make another one? It relates to the topic at hand.
I steal lots of shit. I've stolen everything from cases of beer to payphones. haha Hell, I'm probably partially responsible for the hike in gas prices, because I've filled up my tank and driven off without paying probably over 100 times. I really do need to stop stealing though, because I've been caught twice, once for stealing a case of beer and once for stealing a full tank of gas. Been put on probation, had to do community service, lost my license, gone to jail, etc. It's really not worth it, but I can't bring myself to pay for some things, because I know/think I can get away with it. Hell, a couple of months ago, I used a stolen credit card a couple of times, and I wouldn't be surprised if that came back to bite me in the ass. I am starting to believe that all of the fukt up shit in my life right now is just karma catching up with me.
I hate walmart and what it represent..but stealing for me is not a political statement. I never steal fancy stuff, a few shirts or a scarf. It just gives me a rush and nobody gets arrested for a few stupid shirts..Some of you guys seem way too square here!!.. This is a hippie forum..
how do you shoplift from target and walmart dont those detectors beep on the way out? Is there a way around this? oh please share! I think it's alright if you shoplift as long as it's from a big place that wont miss the money and you dont do it everyday. Otherwise you're just being greedy and materialistic.
That's just ignorant. Plenty of people get arrested for stealing shirts. It's a misdemeanor.....I have personally been arrested for misdemeanor shoplifting. You don't have to steal fancy stuff for it to be a crime. I have been arrested for less. I'm not preaching, because, lord knows I steal all the time, but stealing is stealing, and you can be arrested for stealing a piece of candy, believe it or not. Don't get it twisted. Also, just because it's a hippe forum doesn't mean we're all hippies. I'm no hippy.
I actually survived for a while by stealing from walmart. I, along with a family I was living with for a while, would go to different walmart's everyday and steal stuff, then return it for a gift card so we could get groceries. And yes, they give you a gift card when you return something to walmart without a reciept. That's how we got groceries, and also, we would trade the gift cards for cash, for half price, to whoever would buy them, so we could get rent money. We would do the same thing at Kmart. Is that "materialistic" or is that "survival"?
Yeah I know, and I'm not suggesting that it's alright to steal, but sometimes there is no other choice and you gotta do what you gotta do to eat/survive. lol I didn't have a license, no car, I couldn't find a job, nobody else in the house had a job because there was no transportation. I finally got the fuck outta there and I'm trying to find a job still, but it's hard as shit to find a job in Georgia.
lol so if something was $100 you'd know you get $50 after you go through that whole process. thats pretty cool.
