Lifting PurseĀ Essentials
This is a list of what I think an efficient lifting purse should be like. Keep in mind that thoses are just suggestions.Ā
1. The damn thing : the purse
When you pick out a lifting purse, you need to think about two things, how others see it and how convenient it is.
-Your purse shouldnāt be too flashy. People (including LP) will look more at a bright pink purse than at a brown one.
-Donāt go for the big black MK purse either. Stores know about the lifter-black purse thingĀ and theyāll probably watch you more if they see you walk in with a big black purse.
- The purse itself should be a purse. Not a backpack, not a fanny pack. Nothing that would be suspicious and weird to carry in a mall. If you donāt have a purse that fit those criterias or youāre a guy and donāt carry a purse, I would suggest using a bag from a store thatās close to where youāre lifting. Itās not as convenient as a good lifting purse, but itās way less sus.
- Your purse should be structured (it should hold itās shape). A structured purse doesnāt look any different when itās full. You donāt want LP to be able to tell that you came in with an empy purse and left with a full one. If your purse isnāt structured youāll have to use the Ziploc method and it can get pretty annoying.
- Your purse shouldnāt have a wide opening. The idea with this is that you can keep it open at all time to slip things in easily but LPĀ canāt easily see whatās inside.
- Your purse should have small pockets inside. Your can keep your lifting tools hidden and organized in thoses.
2. What is inside it (your lifting tools)
**You donāt have to have all of these tools, theyāre just ideas.
- If you want, you can place a sweater at the bottom of your purse to keep metal objects from making noise when you drop em in your purse.
- Booster cup if you wanna take tags with you (This is the safest option but make sure to use the cellphone method to test out your booster cup before)
- Magnet and hook (hide those as much as you can because you can get arrested for having those on you)
- Hairties, cards, condom or whatever you use to take off gator tags.(The condom has the added advantage of protecting you from STDs tho)
- Scissors and sewing kit (useful when you donā have a magnet or hook : just cut a hole where the tag is and sew the clothing back up)
- Something sharp like tweezers or a pen to peel off RFIDs and soft tags if you have short nails.
Have fun and stay safe my fellow lifters. :*
