10/10 CONCEALING METHOD!!! ok so this one is for malls that have food courts (so like every mall). so first you’re going to go to auntie anns or some other food placeand ask for a bag like this. this is PERFECT for lush because you don’t have to use their bags and you don’t have to get your purse dirty!! basically, you just carry the item and drop it in the bag, pretty self explanatory..but if an SA catches you mid conceal you can just grab a piece of food out of your bag. literally fool proof.
how are y'all sleeping on this
Same if you go to a grocery store with a pharmacy and use a prescription bag.
Some info about Walmart, straight from a manager
`My stepdad manages a Walmart and at Christmas dinner tonight he got to talking about policies at work, which led to talk about shoplifting.
Here are the highlights:
- Unless you’re very blatant and obvious about your lifting (e.g. concealing right in front of an SA) they won’t do anything about it. Apparently it’s not worth the time/resources/etc. when they can just file it as a loss and have insurance cover it.
- They cannot accuse you of shoplifting. As soon as they do it becomes a big situation and since the repercussions of false busts can be so big it’s not worth it.
- The worst they can do if they suspect you is follow you around and CS you to death. They cannot ask for items back or imply you’ve shoplifted in any way.
- They’re not supposed to stop you if you beep. If for some reason they do they are still not allowed to accuse you of lifting, they have to take responsibility (”Oh we must have forgotten to deactivate a tag or something”).
- They cannot apprehend you at all. No tackling, no following to your car, nothing.
- They have cut way the fuck back on LP and don’t even have them in most stores anymore, certainly not plainclothes LP.
- The greeters at the door double as security. They’re supposed to check receipts and handle returns and stuff but again, they can’t actually accuse you of lifting.
This is all allegedly straight from Walmart corporate and applies to the whole company but who knows, YMMV so please be cautious either way.
Oh and he said they don’t really care about return scams either, people try to return stolen stuff all the time, or they buy something off Craigslist for cheap and then claim they bought it there and try to return it to make a profit…they don’t care. They’re not going to accuse you of trying to scam them, they just roll with it and let the manufacturer take the loss.
babe: tell me something sexy
me: no cams, unattentive SAs, fitting rooms are unlocked and unattended, no sensors.
babe: what
me: naked palettes, no LP, no chase policies, magnets
babe:
me: the biggest
babe: yeah?
me: blackest
babe: yeah 😏
me: lifting bag
Things that will make the lp watch you
Copied from a thread, not mine
Nervousness. Fidgety body movements and looking anxious. Constantly looking from side to side or looking around at other shoppers and employees. Facial expressions of worry, such as wide open eyes, raised eyebrows and crinkled foreheads and gaping mouth. This is usually seen immediately after concealment has already occurred and eye contact is made with the suspect. Releasing nervous tension through exercises such as stretching, cracking knuckles, rotating arms. Walking faster or slower then normal customers. Entering the store and proceeding directly to an area at a brisk pace while eyeballing customers. Walking around the store briskly through aisles while carrying merchandise, attempting to not be seen or followed by associates while concealing the merchandise Refusing assistance from store staff and obviously avoiding contact with others. Asking an associate for directions to an item or department, then proceeding in the opposite direction. Asking an associate unusual questions about merchandise. Removing security tags. Peeling off price stickers. Constantly looking at security cameras. Ducking down and out of employees’ or cameras’ view. Uninterested in shopping. Repeatedly picking up random items with no interest and putting them back. Selecting multiple merchandise at a high rate of speed and not checking prices or sizes. Wandering around store, handling items, lingering here and there, without doing any real shopping. Removing merchandise from one department and depositing it in another, then walking away; creating a depository of merchandise for a later theft. Removing hangers from clothes for no apparent reason. Double hanging clothes. Placing clothing inside of other clothing. Hiding merchandise behind other merchandise. Carrying large seemingly empty purses, bags, or back packs. Placing purse/bag opened in the child seat area of the shopping cart. Large or open purses and shopping bags carried on the arm or shoulder. Handling of bags, backpacks, at the same time glancing around. Carrying a shopping bag from a store that is not in the same shopping center. Carrying items around the store then going into out-of-the-way areas. Constantly walking into a hidden area (Blind Spot) from the view of security. Entering a store empty handed and staring at the Returns desk. Removing a crumpled receipt from their pocket, matching to items on shelf. Suddenly walks quickly to an exit without making a purchase. Opening a wallet and showing cash, in attempt to alleviate suspicion. Wears bulky, heavy clothing during warm weather or coats when unnecessary. Wearing baggy or oversized cloths, hoodies and backpacks. Wearing sunglasses in the store. Caring umbrellas or wearing fake casts. Pushing wheelchairs, and baby strollers. Enters a dressing room or rest rooms with merchandise and then exits with nothing. Repeatedly sends sales staff away by asking for other sizes or colors or distract you with constant chatter. Quickly enter change rooms with a large number of clothes, so staff are not able to check the number of items taken. Backing into a parking space. Leaving the trunk of the car cracked. Leaving another person in the car or at the front of the store. A group entering a store at the same time and then splitting up or come in the same car but enter the store at different times.
Aw shit, I do a lot of these lmao. Bless this post.

TOO POOR FOR MORALS LOL
Shoplifting Tips from a Loss Prevention Officer
Worst Techniques
Wearing out articles of clothing.
Opening packages and putting the item in your bag/pockets/whatever. Seriously, don’t take things out of packages. If there are security tags on the packaging, take them off, but for the love of god stop taking things out of packages and leaving behind the empty boxes. It’s really obvious.
Carrying whatever it is you’re going to steal around the store for ages looking for a nice empty aisle to conceal it in. Walking around with a bunch of video games in the bath towels makes what you’re about to do fairly obvious.
If you were in my store, and you draped your jacket over the stuff in your cart, I’d definitely watch you. People do that kind of stuff to hide what their hands are doing (opening packages, tearing off security sensors, etc).
Best Techniques
Make you you actually look like you’re shopping. If you aren’t looking at the prices of items and you’re just grabbing whatever it is you want off the shelf, it looks like a red flag.
Concealing the stuff that you want to steal while you’re in line waiting to pay for something else. If we’re following you, and you get in line to pay for all of your stuff, we’re probably going to stop watching you at that point.
Don’t take things out of packages! it takes too much time, it makes noise, you leave the the empty package behind and if we see you set down an empty package, even if we didn’t see you stuff the item in your bag/pockets, we’ll probably apprehend you.
If you’re going to conceal the merchandise on your person somehow, don’t leave the store right away after you do this. Chill out, browse, use the bathroom (a lot of retail stores have policies like this– once you go into the bathroom, it’s over, we’ve technically lost sight of you). If we lose you for a while, it’s very dangerous to make the apprehension– stores face a huge liability if loss prevention apprehends someone and they decided not to steal the item and left it in the store somewhere.
Steal during busy hours of the day, when there are lots of people shopping.
Also, if you’re youngish (under 22 or so) and with a group of similarly aged friends, don’t even try. The second a group of teenagers walks in, we’re probably watching them.
If you’re going to hide the merchandise on your person somehow, DO IT WHILE YOU’RE WALKING. Don’t stop, look around, and then stuff it. I cannot stress this one enough. It is much harder to see what you’re doing if you’re walking around from aisle to aisle, especially if loss prevention is following you around on foot instead of with CCTV.
I’d recommend not concealing merchandise in the bathrooms, but definitely using them after concealing merchandise, because it’s a break in surveillance. I’d recommend concealing a couple things that you don’t really want in addition to what you DO want (on the sales floor, not in the bathrooms), and then leaving the items you don’t want in the bathrooms, because they will check the stalls. Confusion is key!

because it seems like w/ the newbies incoming ppl are thinking about wearing clothes out again! :/
Uncute Tip#8 (What will get you caught up)
So I decided to post this here in the main shoplifting tag as I felt it didn’t give anything away but some useful ass tips, and yall mofos should follow my private blog for more tips like this cause I ain’t posting any more here lol.
Also it’s all messed up in the tag, just saw that. Sorry. It’s all organized and cute on my blog thingy.
So I named this an uncute tag simply because it’s not cute. I’ve been doing just fine without these special extra tools or tricks and haven’t been caught yet. Some things aren’t for everyone. I’ll list what will get you caught/addicted.
Magnet’s/Hooks: These nifty little tools are great for people who sell shoplifted goods for a living however these can get you in a LOAD of shit.
For example:
I personally would never consider purchasing a magnet/hook, as this can lead to addictive behavior. Remember that shoplifting and all of this is a CRIME. It is not a job or hobby. IT’S NOTHING WRONG WITH HAVING THEM, I JUST WOULDN’T GET THEM, THATS ALL.
Being caught and having these on you will change your petty crime charges into something wayyyyy more serious. You can go from a fine to actual real real jail time.
You get stuck to metal objects. Now a good friend of mine on here told me about how she would get stuck to displays when she had her magnets on her. Suspicious or nah?
They’re very loud, if you’re in a quiet store the only thing employee’s will hear is the sound of you detaching tags. no good.
BEING LOUD AND ABOUT: Have you just known someone who was loud about everything? Will in the world of being a criminal, being loud and just plain out there can ruin your life. Literally. You want to be so quiet and out of view that they forgot you ever came in the store.
Ways to ruin your stealth:
Dropping Items. Like this is actually really bad, don’t do this, keep steady hands.
Talking to EVERY employee. It’s okay to talk to one at the MOST. But don’t talk to every employee because they’ll just be on your back trying to continue a conversation with you.
Being and look awkward. This means being clumsy, and fidgeting, it’s really hard to conceal while fidgeting, i’ll tell you one thing.
Having a HUGE bag. Nothing more suspicious. Like you’ll knock things down and look awkward and causing you to speak to employee’s and you’ll be breaking all the rules listed here, lol.
Having BAD partners: It’s one thing to shoplift, but to shoplift with a bad partner is asking to be thrown in the slammer.
Effects of having a bad partner and how it Affects you:
They get caught, you get caught. Rather they snitch or you to are close together.
They’re obvious. From the moment they walk in they’re suspicious.
They’re loud and about. Always in the view, can’t shut up and act so proud.
They’re clueless. ”Are you going to steal that?!” Bad partner asks while lp is already prepared to tackle you.
They act like children. Following behind you, always asking what to do, chickening out.
Will sell you out. They will cry, beg and plead to lp that you kidnapped them and made them shoplift.
Shoplifting EVERY DAY: This is a complete no no. I shouldn’t have to explain why.
What it will do to you and your well being:
It will become addictive. It will, no doubt about it. You’ll want to shoplift everyday, want to shoplift bigger things and get sloppy while at it.
You’ll become an even bigger cheap-stake. You’ll cry over paying for that 1$ bottle of soda because you could have stuffed it in your butthole, oooo nooo.
You’ll become recognized. The cameras will see you more often, entering the store and not buying a single thing if not shoplifting their store. They’ll start to wonder why certain items you picked up went missing and you’ll be the suspect. Next time you come in, BAM, RIGHT IN SLAMMER.
You’ll get lazy.I mentioned this but you will. You’ll want every thing to just come without a price and slip and then BAM, RIGHT IN THE SLAMMER.
You’ll get caught. You will, you didn’t listen to this beautiful post, and did all the things I said not to do and now look at you. In da slammer ye go.
Okay, guys that all I could think of for right now, I think I did good, as a lazy girl with bad grammar. I’d like to think I was very real in this post.
This needs more attention. These are some really good things to consider.
The addictive thing is so fucking true.
Read this , or in da slammer ye go
“this isn’t a job or a hobby” .. hmm.. lol this is literally my job and it’s how i pay my bills don’t make me feel bad. sometimes you gotta do what u gotta do

OLD SCHOOL RULES OF CONDUCT
A … IF YOU CANT DO THE TIME - DON’T DO THE CRIME. There are a lot of risk when you shoplift and unfortunately getting caught is the end result of a poorly executed shoplifting attempt. Even if you don’t go to jail, and you probably will not on your 1st offence, you will still end up with a considerable fine. You may be able to have your first charge expunged with some luck, but your actual arrest will remain on your record and may easily be found on any background search. It will be hard to try and explain in your job or college interview why you were stealing. B … KNOW BEFORE YOU GO Always plan ahead of time and know your store. It is a good idea to check out the store before you ever take anything. Look for cameras, security, find where desirable targets are located, locate where all the exits are, and where employees go into back rooms. Locate where the best blind spots are, and when they’re busiest - for most shops this will be Saturdays. Don’t ever assume that a camera dome is empty, always assume that every dome has a camera in it and that it’s watching you. Once you have a good idea of the layout of the store and the layout of the merchandise, leave. Come back another day to do your lifting. Proper planning will help you avoid being at risk for being apprehended. C … BODY LANGUAGE. From the time you enter the parking lot, to the time you leave, you should act as if someone is watching your every move (because they probably are). The biggest mistake a shoplifter can make is to act like a shoplifter. Nervousness, constantly looking around, looking at security cameras and suspicious behave are what the Store Security (Loss Prevention) are looking for. This is what they were trained for and you will make their job much easer. Employees know that if you are acting nervous, then you are usually up to something no good. You want to remain calm and look as normal as possible. Shoplifters get caught because they get sloppy, and don’t pay attention. Keep in mind what you are doing and focus on the task at hand and maintain your appearance, both physical and mental. You should have already done your research and studied the layout of the store beforehand. You want to look like an everyday shopper who has no worries in the world. D … DRESS FOR THE JOB. Loss Prevention are trained to watch everyone, regardless of race or age. If you walk into a store wearing the latest baggie hip hop cloths, a jacket when its warm out, or leave your sunglasses on to hide your eyes, then yes you will be watched. You want to blend in. Notice what the average shopper is wearing and dress like them. Being professional, well dress, groomed, speaking clear understandable English, with a friendly outgoing attitude is the best illusion you could give. The object here is not to draw any attention to yourself. You want Loss Prevention to be watching the other guy. Every store and every area will be different. A “high end” department store will have better dressed shoppers then a discount or home improvement store. No matter what, always wear clean cloths, bath, comb your hair, and have a clean respectable look. E … DO NOT TRUST ANYONE YOU DON’T KNOW. You should never trust another person while you are shoplifting. The majority of Loss Prevention Associates will be dressed in street cloths and will try and blend in with the everyday shoppers. Don’t be fooled by the person who is shopping next to you or is in the dressing room next to you. He might look like a teen age punk, but in reality he is an under cover Loss Prevention Associate watching your every move. Also just because she looks like a sweet old lady doesn’t mean that she wont alert the staff to your wrong doings. Do not stereo type Loss Prevention personnel. They could be either male or female and any age. Some will even work in teams as a couple just to blend in. F … NEVER LOOK AT CAMERAS One of the biggest ways to get caught is to look directly at the cameras. You would be surprised how many nervous amateurs will glance repeatedly, or just boldly stare at the camera dome, giving security a clear view of what you are doing and the perfect chance to capture a picture of your face. Trust me - you cannot see through the domes to tell if it’s pointed at you. They are double-layered to prevent this. Observe cameras from afar, use your peripherals vision, and never tilt your head or eyes up. An upturned face is very easy to see, and will instantly attract attention. G … AVOID ROUTINES Keep track of how often you visit stores and shoplift. Avoid routine. Cashers, stock boys, and even Security will forget about you and your actions for a little while, but if they suspect you of causing merchandises to walk out of the store, they will notice patterns in your routines. Make sure you have a feel of the security, and have an understanding as to how many times it is safe to remove items from any one store in a period of time. The busier the store, the more times you can go into it without raising suspicion. Keep in mind that major retailers have installed computer systems that share records, and CCTV footage between stores specifically to keep tabs on repeat shoplifters. If you were noticed doing something suspicious in one store they may send a picture of you to any of the surrounding stores so that they can keep an eye on you. H … IF IT DON’T FEEL RIGHT - ABORT! Stop what your doing, drop what you have and leave - come back another time. If it don’t look or feel right always go with your instincts, they could be right. It doesn’t matter how insignificant it is, it is better to leave behind your goods and come back another day, then to slip in some way and be apprehended. I … HOME COURT DISADVANTAGE Never do a lot of your shoplifting at a store you frequently shop at. If you really want something bad enough, then spend a little gas money and go across town. The reason you want to do this is because if, for some reason you slip up and get busted, you will not be able to go back into that store again. You will then have to travel across town to do any legitimate shopping. Imagine your embarrassment if your neighbors just happen to be there as they haul you out of the store in handcuffs. Also the employees will recognize you quicker if they are use to seeing your face. J … NEVER STEAL FROM A MOM & POP STORE. This goes to the belief of sticking it to “The Man”. You will find this written many times throughout the anti-establishment community. Whether it be the government or the large multi national mega store, hurting them is more enjoyable and less personal then the small shop owner down the street who is more then likely already having a hard time making money because of these mega stores. These stores are smaller and have fewer employees who may recognize you as a returning thief. There have been many instances where a shop owner has attacked a shoplifter with a bat or some other instrument of pain because they take the theft more personal. If caught the judicial system will also be a lot harder on individuals who committed personal crimes against small shop owners as appose to large companies and your jail time could be lengthier. K … DO NOT GET GREEDY. The number one reason shoplifters get caught is because they become greedy. You can shoplift your whole life and never get caught, but it takes a lot of skill and even more importantly, patience. Most people will get away with something and instead of being satisfied with that one time they have to press their luck and try it again and again in the same store. Eventually you develop a pattern that the Loss Prevention or Police can easy discover and then apprehend you. L … GO DOWN WITH RESPECT. You walked out of the store and you hear that dreaded “Security - may I speak with you” behind you. You take off running as fast as you could, but on this day the Loss Prevention just happened to be a marathon sprinter, and he tackles you. At this point realize that they have won and you have lost - deal with it! Fighting back or using a weapon will only guaranty you a long visit to prison. A simple shoplifting charge means just that - simple. Most cases you will be free in a couple of hours. Be as polite and remorseful as you can be under the circumstances. The Loss Prevention person is only doing a job. The more you are a Dick - the bigger Dick they can be. Sure it sucks but just play it out cool & calm and it will work out for the better. M … SILENCE IS GOLDEN. If you are caught, don’t give them any more evidence then they already have. The best evidence they will have against you is your big mouth. NEVER give any more info then you have too. Answer the basic questions. Loss prevention will tell you that if you talk it will be easier on you and you will receive fewer charges - not true. They already have enough evidence against you or you wouldn’t be there. All they want is a confession so they have a stronger case against you. Do not admit to anything, just sit there and remain quiet. You will not gain anything by incriminating yourself or your friends. Remember this is a game of opportunity and luck as much as it is skill. All it takes is one slip too ruin a perfectly good day. Always think, plan, then think again before you do any shoplifting. If you spend a little time doing research, you might not end up doing any time in jail.
THIS IS IMPORTANT. Like, seriously, if you’re only going to read one thing on lifting, read this.
