I feel more confident when doing a grocery walkout due to wearing a mask. I feel that it gives me a layer of protection lol :D Plus I can switch out my mask and make more than one trip a week now. Usually I would only go one trip per location every 1-2 weeks.
Mini food haul :)
Long time since I posted but I have been busy with life :)

IT GOT BETTER!!!
Everyone is reblogging this without this addition and you don’t know what you’re missing
Update!
Hello! sorry that i have not been more active in the community lately Ive been fully committed in my education and it just takes up so much of my time! Have i missed anything major? i haven't been on since i wanna say beginning of fall semester.
Caught story from a friend:
A friend of mine through an old community was recently arrested at K0hls. She beeped, and LP confronted her and she was wearing heels and couldn’t run. She was approached based on the beep, but LP was very close to the door when it happened so make of that what you will.
She had a ton of shit in her purse and in a shopping bag, including clothing, expensive headphones, jewelry, and more. She still has no clue why she beeped since she checked thoroughly for tags in a fitting room and used a magnet, but is reasonably sure it wasn’t via a magnet detector. We’re talking about a very very experienced lfter here who felt comfortable in this particular store.
The police showed up very quickly, as in while they were leading her to a back room, and she was arrested. Literally they took her in a police car to the station, booked her, took a mugshot, put her in jail, the whole nine yards. She was not strip searched. She was over the felony limit for her state, plus they found her tools, and she admitted she had taken some things, but not everything they found, and denied it was premeditated. She now regrets saying anything at all, and wishes she’d asked for a lawyer.
They took her purse and got a warrant for her phone. She had to give them her passcode. This is something I’d heard rumors about the police doing but this is the first person I know who that happened to. She was bailed out the same day by her husband, who did not know she lfts and is not happy right now, but they did not let her take her phone home. She knows she is in deep, deep shit as she was boosting shit over several different apps on her phone and had used the phone to text with partners, but not on the day she was caught or for some time prior. When her husband picked her up he was not questioned, but a cop mentioned to him that if he was involved he should confess because they have her phone and will find out who she was working with.
They did not get a warrant for her home or car as far as she knows; her car was still in the K0hls parking lot when she got out that night, with lfted stuff from another store in the trunk. Her husband told her to pack a bag of anything that she had taken recently which he is hiding with a relative just in case. She has lfted from K0hls before and is now worried about them checking tapes and getting her on more. She may be facing jail time just on what she was charged with already, and charges may be added depending on what they find on her phone. She may have put people she cares about in harms way, including a member of her family, because they texted her about lfting. She has hired a lawyer, and it’s not cheap, and has had to seek medical attention for severe anxiety that has made her unable to eat without getting sick or sleep a full night.
From what she told me, I have learned a few lessons:
1. Don’t wear heels if you can’t run in heels.
2. Tags may be hidden in very covert places. I wish I could tell you what got her caught, but she still doesn’t know and is very, very surprised it happened. Her only guess is a bottle of perfume that was somewhat pricey. She had removed a tag stuck to the bottom of the box but wonders if perhaps there was a second tag inside the box that she missed.
3. Know the law, and know how much trouble you’d be in if you got caught each time. If it’s serious, refuse to talk and demand to see a lawyer. The expense is worth it if you’re fucked either way. Also make sure you do not consent to any searches.
4. Be very careful about what’s on your phone. This is something I’d heard about in the past but just to be safe I’ve cleaned out my conversations on a few texting apps and deleted some photos. I’ve always used codewords for most conversations and now those are the only ones that could be found.
5. A lot of liftblr caught stories, as well as caught stories on other sites, seem to center around K0hls. I have never fucked with K0hls because honestly there wasn’t much at mine I particularly wanted. My friend was very, very comfortable with hers and is shocked this is the place she ended up getting caught. Don’t fall into the trap of “but mine is easy” when you’re talking about a chain that is known for having good LP. Yours may have been easy when you started, but they could easily have stepped up their game. Be very vigilant every single time and try to avoid the felony total in any one trip. This situation would be significantly less dire if she had taken two trips instead of taking so much in one. She is also wondering if perhaps they had suspected her of lfting there for some time but simply did not feel comfortable catching her until the beep gave them a reason to confront her.
6. We have been communicating through a very secure app on her ipad that does not log conversations since this happened. I don’t want to reveal any more about it right now but suggest those of you who like to stay in touch do your research about what technology you decide to use and maybe don’t use your phone if you bring that with you when you lft. I have always been very secure about my communications except for those where I chose to use code words.
Be careful out there.
wow this is a true lîfter nightmare! poor girl😔 i’ve never been to a khôls and i will certainly think twice about lîfting from them
holy shit this is absolutely awful
Don’t let her arrest go in vain! Take notes! Learn from this! We know they can get warrants for phones now, so keep your phones absolutely clear of evidence. We know now that K0hls has been catching lots of people lately and prosecuting them all mercilessly, so avoid K0hls.
Learn from these situations, even if the person caught wasn’t you.
From the sounds of it the cops must’ve thought she was part of an orc which they can technically charge her with since she was boosting to multiple sites, had tools, and had partners. These partners would be found through her phone and they can all be charged together as an organized crime ring meaning they could potentially be charged with all their totals added together that they find evidence of.
To be absolutely safe wipe your phone of any evidence before you go lifting. Log offf tumblr, delete any lifting texts after they’re sent and received. MAKE IT A HABIT. You don’t want to be caught with shit like that in your phone.
Always stay cautious don’t ever be too comfortable in a store. Never take more than the felony amount from a store at a time. Make multiple trips if you want it’s better to be cautious.
And for gods sake STAY AWAY FROM KOHLS. THEEY ARE HAANDS ON THEY WILL TTACKLE THEY WILL FOLLOW INTO THE PARKING LOT THEY ARE FUCKING CRAZY.
This is literally so sad
You guys
I work at kohls.
We have the top LP in my entire STATE. I have seen this man (who looks like a total dad) TAKE DOWN 400 POUND MEN IN THE EXIT.
Please do not lift from Köhls. You can find everything we carry inside a different store.
Do not lift from köhls do not lift from köhls
DO NOT DO IT. They cut money in other depts (specifically mine) for better LP.
They listen to their LP and install cameras wherever they want. They catch on. They make cases. They will prosecute. Dont fucking do it. Please.
I work there too and they don’t fuck around!!
I work there too! Mine is a lot less uptight about lp, like we have one 500 pound lp guy and he’s not in the store 70%+ of the time and our store policy is that even lp isn’t allowed to make physical contact, and only lp is allowed to make any sort of accusation. All we do is alert a manager if we are sus of someone and they watch that person on cameras.
But I can tell you for SURE we do have like every two weeks a small huddle where the lp guy will pass around camera grabs of shoplifters we confirmed but didn’t catch, like they openly were filmed putting things in their bags but no one saw them at the time or no one was able to catch them.
you already KNOW what this means, bitches.
At work we’ve had three possible shoplifter alerts since I started a bit over two weeks ago and while they all turned out to be false alarms, every single time I had such a strong urge to go find the lifter and alert them somehow lmao
Control
Something I wish I had in my life.
Went to hobby lobby just for socks but this happened 😎saved about 135
Small haul but left really satisfied!!! Ulta and Barns and noble. Walked by it and was so surprised that it didn’t have a sensor on it so I investigated it. Outside pocket had round Rfid sticker in it (pictures 2/3) and in main pocket the “barcode sticker” was at the bottom. Once pealed away I could tell it was also and Rfid. Always check then double check. Took a long time to conceal it bc people were out shopping but for some reason this particular area is in a huge blind spot. I wanted to go to different stores but felt better not to press my luck. Don’t know if I will sell the bag or keep it. This one is the slightly smaller one. Kinda want to get a big one also and use it as a new university bag :P Total saved about 135
I absolutely love my kanken and super glad that i decided to keep it!
Where’d you get your golf detacher from?
sadly mine is not a golf detacher. I got it off the wish app bc from the pics it looked like a golf detacher, i guess thats what i get for paying $8 for it lol its not as strong as the cylinder one that i currently have. i have seen some from ebay for about $35 every so often.
iconic
VS/Pink has changed company policy and we can’t confront, follow, accuse, or call security/cops on lifters. We literally can’t do anything. My managers watched a girl snag a ton of panties on the floor and couldn’t do anything. Just tryna spread the word. Be careful because it’s possible that not every employee will comply but if they try anything you’re in the right to sue soo 🤷🏼♀️
🙌🙌😘
RIP lifter at S3phora
So I just finished lifting from a Tärgêt at my mall, and walked past S3phora on the way to the exit. (TBH I feel like I was hella sloppy the last two times I lifted there so I’m taking a long ass break so I don’t get arrested or nothin.)
In the entrance of the S3phora was a giant burly LP officer looking annoyed and a mall cop waiting just outside the store. Whoever got caught, rip darling…
magnet help!!
Does anyone know if these magnets are powerful enough to get pencil tags off???I would obviously need a couple packs but will it work. I can’t find what strength they are
