How to deal with fitting room policies
Classified from easiest to trickiest.
Disclaimer : i’m not talking here about what will happen if they catch you, i’m talking about what employees and fitting room attendants usually do with your items.
- Unattended fitting rooms
Unattended fitting rooms are God’s gift to all lifters. No one to see you enter, no one to see you leave. You’re hella free to do anything as long as you don’t come in with 7 shirts and come back with 1.
- Unattended but monitored fitting rooms
Same as above, only difference is the entrance to the fitting rooms have cameras directly filming it. They might not be watched, but in case make sure your items look the same when you exit than when you entered, and don’t look directly at the camera.
- Unattended but locked fitting rooms
If you need someone to open the room for you, but no one is actually around, conceal in the blindspot formed by the fitting room corridor and then call an employee. If there’s a camera, conceal away from it.
- Fitting room attendants that don’t count
Take roughly 7 items with you and only conceal one, or if you want to feel more secure double hang items, they’re more likely to not be noticed.
- Fitting room attendants that count
You can either double hang (make it look flawless), conceal on the floor or lie about the number. I don’t recommend that however if they double check your hangers, even discreetly.
- Employees that take items from you while counting
Don’t even think about lying or dougle hanging here, better conceal on the floor. If the store is very busy, conceal a small shirt and use it as a decoy to conceal a bigger items that you brought on a hanger.
- Employees that take items from you while you’re still browsing
These are very annoying IMO, even if they’re just doing their job afterall. Get them to start a room for you, conceal on the floor or slip some items inside the room while they’re looking away.
The leftover rack technique
I didn’t know where to put that one so here it is : stores often have a special rack for items you don’t want anymore, casually located near the fitting rooms. I found 2 ways to use that to your advantage.
- When no one is watching, quickly grab some items from the rack and use them as decoys, and hand them back as if they were yours all along.
- When browsing, place some items you plan on lifting on the rack. You’ll get them later inside your room when dropping items you don’t want. This requires that no employee is gonna empty the rack/ see you, but it works pretty well against attendants that take items from you when you’re still browsing.
Hope this helped, feel free to send me your own store fitting room policies so i can add them here/give more tips. Do not hesitate to correct me either if you think i said something wrong.
