10/10 Grocery Method
This method has worked for me and everyone else Iâve shared it with, honestly I was just sitting in the car one day, and thought of this. Wonât work for a huge grocery haul but is PERFECT FOR CONCEALING. This works at any grocery store. Get your items in a basket or whatever and go to the freezer section to be âlooking for ice creamâ as you are looking for ice cream have your purse situated on the side of your body where the door is blocking you; the condensation will block the next part. the items you want to conceal should be in your hand and literally just drop them In! So easy and works 10/10. No grocery stores know of this yetâŠ. I literally just thought of this about a month ago & itâs perfect because the condensation on the door will make it pretty much impossible for the cameras to see you. I also prefer to lean in so my body is almost inside the freezer, for even more comfort knowing no one can see you ;)
KEEP THIS METHOD SACRED THEY CANâT KNOW
info on my booster bag
hey liftblr!
if you remember this post i made a little while back, you might be aware that i recently purchased a âfaraday bagâ meant for protecting your mobile phone/tablet (product linked here) from radio signals used to extract/plant data. my intent was to use it as a booster bag, and i figured i would give you all a little update on how thatâs worked out for me, since a few people seem interested & i think it could help other lifters!
first things first, here are the dimensions of the bag:
(the bag itself, with a regular hook tag for scale)
(here it is when itâs foldedâitâs about 1.5â thick. i fold it and usually shove it down the back of my jeans so it rests against my back. paired with a loose sweater over it, itâs actually pretty hard to spot.)
you can fit a REALLY decent amount of tags inside this thing, though it does get harder to fold the more are inside. i would estimate, while folded, it can comfortably fit 10-15 tags without getting too bulky. if you stuffed the thing with disregard for bulkiness, iâd approximate you could easily fit 40-50+ tags inside, maybe more. i got the tablet size* for 70 USD, and while it is pricey, iâm really pleased!
*they also sell a cell phone size for 50 USD, which is a good deal smaller, but iâm sure you could still fit a few tags inside, and it would also be easier to conceal on-person.
iâve tested it at the following stores, and been able to pass through the entrance* (with tags inside) incident free:
- although not a store, it worked on my iphone, lol. putting it inside makes it unable for calls or texts to get through, and when you bring the phone out, there are a few seconds before the phone âpingsâ with a tower that you can see it still reads âno cellular service available.â
- forever 21
- pacsun
- lululemon
- sephora**
- urban outfitters
- h&m**
- aerie
- aeropostale
- victoriaâs secret/PINK***
*while i canât concretely verify that all these stores actually had towers/working towers at that, i know for certain that the towers at urban outfitters worked, as well as the ones at VS/PINK. i did my testing at a relatively upscale mall, so i would assume all stores would be adequately prepared with LP measures like working towers.
**i did not conceal tags directly from these stores, but the tags i had on my person from other stores did not create an incident at these places.
***this one is a bit of a special case. i walked into the VS side of the store with tags concealed in my booster bag and the towers did NOT go offâi know for a fact they were working, however, because a woman beeped on her way out (and subsequently, an SA searched her bag). however, upon leaving the PINK side of the store with tags from PINK/VS inside my bag, i did beep. more on this down below.
here are the types of tags iâve found success with concealing in my bag & walking out with:
top left: clam tag from UO
top right: ink tag from F21/pacsun
bottom left: hook tag from lululemon
bottom right: hook tag from A&F
now, here are the tags that may have given me a problem:
i believe all of these are from VS/PINK, though iâm not entirely certain on the tag with the wire. these tags were the ones i added to my bag while inside of the VS/PINK, and subsequentially the ones that must have made me beep. upon entering a kate spade store with the same assortment of tags in my bag, i also beeped on both entry and exit.
my lifter friend (who was there at the time) and i tried to brainstorm reasons why these tags might have made me beep. note that we made sure i hadnât left any tags/hidden RFIDs in my purse or on the merchandise i had concealed on my person. hereâs what we were able to come up with (keep in mind that neither of us know jack shit about the science behind radio signals and whatnot):
- itâs possible that one or more of the tags in the picture above uses a frequency that was not blocked by the bag? i believe this would be possible if one of the tags used a radio frequency <600MHz or >5 GHZ. just gonna put it out there that i have no ideas what those numbers mean, but on the website, thatâs the range of frequencies the bag claims to block. the same case could be made with other kinds of signals the website lists that have some kind of range associated with them.
- again, just putting it out there that i have NO IDEA how radio signals or otherwise work, but maybe the amount of tags in my bag created a combined signal strength that overwhelmed the bag? i donât even know if signals can do that, but if they can that might be an explanation. after i started beeping, we went back to my lifter friendâs car and ditched all of the tags inside the bag before continuing (cautiously) lifting. for the rest of the day, we were careful to ditch tags as frequently as possible to limit the number inside the bag, just in case this theory had any connection to why i beeped.
thatâs all the information i can give you about my bag. overall, iâm SUPER pleased with how itâs working out for meâiâve been able to steal upwards of $1300 worth of merchandise with it so far, so the cost of the bag was money well-spent. even with the rouge beep at VS, i would say i have confidence in the bag for use while lifting. although i do still have to stay vigilant whenever i pass through towers, you should ALWAYS be alert, booster bag or not, when you leave a store, and never assume that you wonât beep.
i hope this post could help some people outâand if anyone has some kind of knowledge that could concretely explain the beeping incident at VS/PINK, it would be much appreciated (for me, and anyone else who uses any kind of booster bag).
happy lifting :)
look, look with your special eyes!â
thief-keef:
a guide to using the 5 senses to avoid detection (and detention)
sight
before entering a store, take a solid look at the building itself. if there are cameras pointed at the door rather than out into the parking lot, thatâs an indicator the store has a theft problem and most likely has someone monitoring the cameras closely.
look for police cars located near entrances/exits. if the cops are there, someoneâs already been busted before you, and youâre going to want to try again a different day.
learn to move your eyes, not your head to look for cameras. practice, working on giving bitches the side eye if you have to. this tips been said several times and 15 different ways but itâs a key thing to know, i cannot stress enough how important your eye movement is!
hearing
listen to (and for) radios whenever possible. undercover lp will try and hide their radios, possibly even turn them off, but other employees may be around that you can eavesdrop on their ongoing conversation.
overhead announcements and employee conversations should be listened to. you donât need to freeze or stop what youâre doing, but if there are saâs near you talking about how âjohn busted that woman this morningâ or something, you now know the store has lp and the cameras are monitored.
touch
donât linger and hold things for too long. you wouldnât caress a sweater for 15 minutes if you were really shopping, so donât do it now.
iâve invented something iâm going to call the ârule of 2âsâ: in one trip, never visit an item more than twice, never conceal in an area more than twice, and never go to dressing rooms/bathrooms more than twice.
i like to pick up an item i have 0 intention of lifting and visibly leave it somewhere in the store, on camera, so it looks like iâm just lazy and will put shit wherever.
taste
donât bring any food/beverages with you unless youâre going to use them to your advantage! if you plan on putting small items in the empty cup or youâre going to throw the wrapper and trip on it to create a distraction, then go for it. you need access to both hands at all times for quick and easy concealment, donât hinder your ability to do so because youâre holding that white mocha frap.
smell
âŠjust smell good. i donât know.
shiplofting: âdonât wear strong perfume or anything because itâll call attention to youâ
shoplifting routine + tips
before i sleep, iâm going to type out some things i collected from lift-pros who have deactivated their blogs and adopted into my own routine! iâll just detail my routine and try to give a few tips at the end so that the newer lifters can have some of the wisdom of those who have left us.
routine:Â
whenever i go lifting, i always bring a medium sized purse and a large shopping bag. i gently fold the shopping bag and put it inside of my purse. other than this, iâll bring:
my magnet and hook (i hide them inside of these hidden zippers in my purse) {some lifters use scissors. same goes.}
a wallet with a decent amount of money (if i have it) in case i get caughtÂ
earphones (personal preference, but i find that music calms me and makes me look nonchalant. sometimes i wonât even listen to anything so that i can appear occupied, but actually be attentively listening around me.)
when i enter my first store, iâll browse around, examining fabric, price tags, comparing clothes to my body in the mirrors. this is useful for concealing. if you conceal an item of clothing in another, mirrors are so good for checking if you can see it. just look as if youâre checking our your appearance.Â
try to take some items without hangers, so that you can put those items onto hangers when you have extras.Â
once iâve taken a couple items i want along with some larger items with pockets (jeans, overalls, collared shirts) iâll go to a changing room. if an attendant asks me how many items i have, iâll lie and say 2 less than what i have. if they physically count the items, then iâll probably only steal one item. if no one gives a shit, then still, donât be too careless about stealing items. thereâs still video cameras.Â
***MAKE SURE not to steal a boldly printed/colored item thatâs showing in your pile of clothing or the first item that youâre holding. theyâll probably notice itâs gone, or at least thereâs a greater risk. ***
in the changing room, iâll probably take my shoes off so i donât look suspicious from underneath the curtain. and if the curtain doesnât fully close, i ALWAYS hold it closed with my body as i detag. a lady once walked in on me as i was detagging and i nearly had a heart attack, thankfully she didnât see anything.Â
after i take the tags off of the items i want, iâll put the tags into or onto the clothes i donât want. DOUBLE CHECK FOR TAGS PLEASE!!!! THEREâS CHANCES OF EXTRA HARD AND SOFT TAGS. iâll put the clothes i detagged in my purse. if i donât have space, i might wear the item of clothing if itâs small and unnoticeable. when i exit the changing room, iâll most likely leave one item that has been untouched on the rack outside of the changing room.Â
PLEASE MAKE SURE NOT TO LEAVE THE ITEM WITH THE EXTRA TAGS ON OR IN IT ON THE RACK OR WITH THE ATTENDANT the attendant will be touching these items the soonest and itâs pretty sketchy when a tag falls out of a pocket or if thereâs an extra on there.Â
i usually take the items with the tags and bring them back out to the store, if iâm not lazy iâll put it back where it came from. i always try to put it in the middle of the rack.
then i exit the store, trying to look calm.Â
so you probably noticed i havenât mentioned the shopping bags yet. this isnât what everyone does, but i always head to the bathroom and put the clothes i stole into the bag. it works for me because i canât necessarily pull off walking into my mall with a bag in hand, but if you want to start off with the bag, just put something thin and dark inside the bag to put on top of the clothes you stole. just in case.Â
then i hit up other stores! except at these other stores, i can put the clothes i take into the shopping bag.
tips:Â
1. always double check for tags on the clothing. this is a given, but really, you have to check for any kind of tag. you might have gotten the hard tag off, but there could still be a soft tag somewhere, or some other lifter couldâve left a tag somewhere. hold up the price tags and clothing tags up to the light and look for chips and shit.
2. HIDE your tools. please. hide them. if the LP sees your tools, youâll get punished so much harder because you were shoplifting with the intent.
3. DONâT RUN!!! donât run. if you run, well, it depends on store policy. but if you run, they might tackle you or call the police or some shit.
4. if you donât have a good feeling about a place, drop the shit and get out. seriously. get out. leave the mall if you have to. give it a little time before you return. just donât risk it. no item is worth a record, especially since weâre all young with our futures ahead of us.
5. find somewhere to put your tags. donât be careless. iâve seen people just leave the tags in the changing room, itâs not necessarily traceable but it draws attention to the fact that shoplifting is prevalent in the store. what iâve found is putting them inside of purses, pockets is effective. and of course, retagging clothing as well. i usually tag the inner tag on the seam of the clothing.Â
6. always be nice to the SA. if they talk to you, theyâre just doing their job and being polite. but if theyâre following you around a little too closely, theyâre probably suspicious of you.Â
7. dress appropriately for the store. this is also a given, but donât wear shit like black hoodies and sweatpants, cause you probably look like a lifter who wants to wear clothing out of the store. also, i recommend changing your appearance up a little.
8. donâtttt please donât go to one store too much and never buy anything. give it some time. if an store attendant asks, i like to say that iâm just trying on things and iâm going to tell my mom what i want so we can come back. also, donât always go at like 4:00 on a tuesday. change it up, so you catch different employees at different shifts.Â
9. donât grab a shitton of stuff and then steal a large portion of it. for me itâs usually: stealing one item for every four pieces i grab, two if the SAâs arenât nearby or paying attention, or if i concealed really well. Â
10. you donât NEED to buy a small thing to alleviate suspicion. i understand the logic, but honestly iâd just get out of the store. donât stay longer than you need to.Â
11. when youâre leaving, donât rush out. walk sloow and calm like any normal shopper would. i get it. you wanna get out ASAP. but you also donât want to be sus. fake a phone call if you must. or look at your phone. just be natural.Â
12. DONâT BE AFRAID TO WASTE A DAY ON SCOUTING. lifting at a new store is very exciting but sometimes they might have something youâre not familiar with, like at zara, they will scan every single clothing item and make sure thereâs a tag when youâre entering and leaving the changing room. when you scout, figure out the layout, security cameras, SA procedures
13. THIS IS REALLY USEFUL FOR ME idk if itâs useful for you but some of the stores i go to have a level for menâs wear and a level for women. often times, the changing rooms on the menâs level will have fewer people and fewer SAâs. if you feel like the SAâs on the womenâs level are hardasses about the clothes in your arm, check out the menâs level.Â
14. DONâT TAKE WHAT YOU DONâT NEED. donât be greedy. this is just me, but i take only things i will actually wear. some people boost, so thatâs different, but donât be greedy. stores will probably notice a larger loss in inventory way sooner. pleaseee donât be greedy. sometimes shoplifting is so easy you think you can get away with anything, but itâs still illegal at the end of the day. only take things you really want. i always look at store websites before hitting up stores so i have an idea of what i want and i have my limits. be smart about it. thereâs a ton of big, flashy hauls on tumblr, but you donât need to compete with others. go at your own speed.Â
15. donât ever underestimate the fact that shoplifting is still a crime. even if youâre a teenager, youâll be punished. donât forget that. you can still stick it to the man, just, be careful.Â
other methods besides dressing room concealing:
so thereâs a lot of other methods out there, especially just on the floor concealing where you put things in your bag or your sleeve. personally, it doesnât work for me, so iâm sorry i didnât cover it. iâm afraid of blind spots not actually being blind spots and iâm also afraid of tags. if thereâs jewelry i want or something non-clothing, iâll hide it under the clothes in my arm. this is only if the SA will not take these things from me and count them. so you need prior knowledge. anyways, a lot of jewelry iâve seen have tags as well so be careful. iâve taken shoes, bikinis, jewelry, socks and underwear this way ahaha iâd say itâs effective but you need to know your store.Â
hope this helped!Â
Great post. For the anons in my inbox, take a look.

My lĂŒsh gift card scam (explained)
Ok so first, youâre gonna need a couple things.
-a new email. Dont use your actual name.
-something expensive from lush (I lifted a cardamom coffee perfume.)
Youâre going to need this because you donât have a reciept. Place it on a piece of paper and write âMy email is: *insert your fake email*â on the paper and take a photo.
Now, you email lush. My email said this:
I inserted a photo of a random rash and then this one:
After which they sent me an email, asking for my cellphone number and I gave it to them. They called me and I gave them some bullshit lie about how I was âso happy to use it because it smelled divine and I love lush so muchâ and this was the reply after the call:
I did that one more time with a different rash photo and vanillary perfume on a different email and recieved another gift card which I used online for my recent haul!
đđđ
This is actually so believable and smart well done Iâm proud đ
HOW TO BOOST VICTORIA SECRET/PINK PANTIES.
First! You need a coat. Trench coat works best, but dont wear that bitch. Drape that shit over your arm like it was too hot to wear it , so youre just carrying it. Walk over to the panty table. Grab all the shit you want. It works best if you sit on the floor because its Not sus at all. They have draws alllllll the way at the bottom and they understand aint nobody bending over that long to look at them. Gather all you want. Once you have everything youre going to lift remove your coat from your arm, drape your panties over that arm and when no saâs are near put your coat back on your arm and walk tf out. This is a fool proof method for getting alot at one time. Dont worry about the camera cause if you crouch or sit on the floor like i said it shouldnât pick anything up. Especially if youâre fast. It will just look like you didnt want any. Also you could grab a couple decoys and casually put them back like you didnt want any. Iâll post a video if i can.
Okay im not trying to cause beef or anything and im not saying that this would not work but Iâd like to offer my method as supplemental material to your suggestions.
Grab the panties you want while squatting down. SAs understand squatting but there isnât really a non-sus reason to sit on the floor. Like if I saw someone sitting on the floor Iâd think 1) weird or 2) teenager lifting
You can just put them in the vs purse things they always offer you. Take the initiative to grab one yourself because theyâre understaffed and Iâve found myself visibly looking for a SA for hell and not getting any.
Then this is the key to more success: while youâre in line to get a fitting room or waiting for an SA to come by (and Iâve waited 10 minutes before wtf) â definitely this is your chance to start casually sliding panties into your bag. Cover your hand moves by grabbing a bulky item like a sweater and casually draping that over your hands and arms. Iâve gotten 15 pairs of panties into my bag minimum every time doing this. Slide a few up your sleeve too if you have a small bag.
Now this is the most important part. CONCEAL ON BODY. Do not be the person who gets stopped at VS because they saw them and took them out of your purse. I have worn up to 30 pairs of panties out over my own underwear. I also like to stuff 3-4 into each underboob section.
Now at this point you can pretend to be interested in purchasing that bulky item and go over to cash! Where they keep all of their overpriced lotions.
Honourable mention to the vanilla lace scent that i LOVED and they idiotically replaced with âbare vanillaâ, which btw- the name fits the description. Itâs barely fucking vanilla. So disappointed.
!!! important addition ^^^
Good addition!!
something to consider â iâm not sure if every vs does this, but mine sporadically tags panties with pencil tags so if i just grabbed a handful of 10 to boost and didnt check them before walking out, id definitely be taking at least one or two tags out with me. please dont leave without checking for tags!!
and pleeaaasseee dont think that youâd feel the tag when you grab the panties, because trust me lmao if ur grabbing a whole ass handful ur rly not gonna feel it. dont be sloppy
Okay, saving money when shopping- a post not related to lifting đ”
Some of these might seem pretty obvious but I just know from other ppl irl they donât seem to do/know this and spend heaps of money when they donât necessarily have to. Sorry if this is disappointing đ
đžMy fav thing to do is scope out stores I like on their online store. For example I like c1tybe@ch a lot, and they stock a lot of nice CK underwear. But a bitch knows Iâm not finna pay $49.99 for a pair of underwear, and for some reason my hook hasnât been working on their tags.
SO I checked them out online, not only did they have a waaaay larger range of CK on their site than in store, but at least half the range was reduced. So I bought a pair of underwear and 3 bralettes for half price or more, things that were better than they had in store. I saved $90.00 from that.
đžA fake/decoy/spare email- so you know when you go online or in store and they always harass you for your email with the offer of 30% off your next shop when you sign up! (I kno itâs annoying when SA do that but trust me theyâre being forced to by their managers-speaking from personal experience here).
Give them the spare email, take advantage of the money off. It may not seem like much but I have gotten basically free postage, or a considerable chunk of money taken off my orders online from doing this. Saving any amount is good. I got $15 off an order from l@terg@tor which left me paying hardly anything. Sometimes you can even earn points and get money off.
đžThe shops âper kilo/LB etcâ scam. Sneaky ass grocery shops love doing this. Once I was shopping with my dumbass man child ex, and he wanted grapes and was like âmad theyâre only $3 a kg!â But they were prepackaged in a bag. He went to grab them and I was like hold up bitch, and I weighed the bag and the bag was 2.2kg. So I plucked off the excess amount til it was a kg. He didnât even consider this. I know it doesnât seem like much money but honestly it ALLLL ADDS UP. Grocery shops do this with a lot of their prepackaged shit, always check.
đžIf something you like is on sale, grab a few. This seems so obvious but like my friends for some reason donât do this. I am not out of my fav exfoliator and cleanser. Theyâre nearly full but they cost $10 each, theyâre on sale for $5.70 so I got 2 or 3. This is especially great for people who donât have a consistent or steady income, what happens if you run out at the same time you run out of money? Skin gon be fucked up til your next cheque.
đžDO SOME RESEARCH- LEARN YOUR SKIN TYPE AND LEARN ABOUT INFREDIENTS. DIY your shit. A full set of acrylics cost me $50, and thatâs for a basic ass set, and infills every 2-3weeks is $35. Fuck that mess. Watch YouTube tutorials. Buy(or lift) the products and equipment you need. Say for tips, glue, monomer/polymer and top coat (or bond-aid, base coat etc if you wanna be full professional and bougie) costs $80 (in Australia thatâs about what itâd cost for the absolute basics depending) thatâs $80 for MONTHS or possibly a years worth of nails. And itâs a fun skill to learn.
Skin care, $30 for 60g of bentonite clay mask? I think the fuck not you trick ass bitch. Do your research on skin and learn what you need. 1kg of organic natural bentonite is $20-30 on eBay. Thatâs literally years worth of amazing skin cleansing action. Donât believe what cosmetic and skin companies peddle out to you. They giving you shitty chemical filled product at fucked up inflated prices. You donât need 28 different petrochemical oils and fragrances on your face. $80 for farsali face oil? Donât be tricked by the pretty colours and sparkles itâs glorified fools gold. $12 bio oil is the BEST shit I have ever used on my face. It doesnât stop there, whatâs great for healing your skin? Zinc. Whatâs expensive as fuxk? Zinc supplements that you donât even know are going to work if you ingest them. What costs $6 and no one knows about? Sudo-cream. Nappy cream. Zinc oxide cream. You got a pimple or broken skin? Smear that white gold on your face before bed like a mask and wake up and wash it off tomorrow to see that goood shit work. DO YOUR RESEARCH. $150 for a lash growth serum huh? If itâs $150 it gotta work. And you know what, it does. I use it. My lashes are fuxkin long and lush. Do you know what doesnât work? Paying $150 for 10ml of product. There is a glaucoma eyedrop medication that is the same shit as what they put in lash serum which is what makes them grow. An online pharmacy can have it for under $10. Youâre welcome. (Donât put the eye drops in your eye, just the lash line)
đžif youâre not into walk out lifts at grocery shops and you buy them, know what you need before you go in. Then go online or check their catalogues to see whatâs on sale. Always check the reduced section. Donât blindly pay for shit. Check multiple grocery shop catalogues and online to see where has the sales on what you need. PRO TIP: in Australia at least, there is a law that say, if steak is advertised at $8/kg, and you scan it and it comes to anything MORE than $8/kg, you get it for free. So ALWAYS FUXKIN CHECK WHO DOESNT LOVE FREE MEAT EXCL VEGANS/VEGETARIANS!?
đžAnother probably obvious one, is to do grocery shopping towards the closing time. Fresh/cooked foods will be reduced as fuxk because they canât sell them the next day. Iâm talkin roasted chickens/meat, pre-made salads and sandwiches, sushi, pre-made pasta/rice etc you can always grab a bargain.
đžNUTS, expensive as fuck right? Well they are in Australia homeboy. Some places have bags/containers of nuts and a self serve nut bar. Compare the prices. A kg of almonds might be $10 from the self serve bar, and a 650g container of almonds might be $8, what would you buy?
This is all I can think of right now, if I remember anything else Iâll update the post. Again, many of you might already do these things. But just incase you didnât. Well here yaaaaaa go. Peace out mamis
A tip from an ex-magician to my lifting babies âĄ
That has got to be the most ridiculous title for myself. Anyway. GOOGLE MAGIC TRICKS. LEARN SLEIGHT OF HAND THROUGH MAGIC TUTORIALS.
Guys I was OBSESSED with magic as a kid and I practiced it until I was a junior in high school. You know how easily I took to lifting? Ridiculously. Iâve fucking concealed with employees staring me in the eye during my first ever haul. They canât tell shit. And they had no idea. Thereâs tricks you can learn that are INVALUABLE. Of course donât go running up to lp and concealing in front of them right away. Iâve been playing with sleight of hand and illusions for years. Youâd be amazed how much better you can get at lifting if you learn tricks similar to it.
Penny behind the ear? Oh no. I pulled a fucking nAKED PALLETTE OUT OF YOUR DAMN ASS HOWâS THAT FOR A TRICK.
Now go learn from the pros my precious babies ilysm â€â€â€â€
To add to this: look up Apollo Robbins and the sort of stuff he does: he explains diverted attention really well, and basically how to direct othersâ gazes to particular areas while doing something else. Of course, Robbins uses it for stage effects, but if you take the basic premise and get creative with it and apply it to lifting⊠youâre all set. Practice this shit in the bathroom mirror at home and stuff, too, with items around the same size and weight as stuff youâre lifting. (If you donât have those items yet, use small packets, or lipglosses or pens or whathaveyou.)  And get very, very good at not looking at your hand while youâre doing stuff (including removing and even finding RFID tags, as well as concealing). Ideally you want your attentionâ and anyone elseâsâ focussed on what youâre doing with your other hand, which should be looking at a product/price/etc.Â
This is very good advice. Iâve also used the same philosophies as professional pickpockets (they use sleight of hand, same as magicians) and been very successful with it.
any tips for a beginner lifter??
Well, some basics you should know:
Printed Barcodes donât set off alarmsÂ
Never conceal on cameraÂ
Assume all cameras are real and being watched
Always check for tagsÂ
Now some advice that I have. This is my personal advice so take it with some caution for your situation.Â
Always scope out a place first. Donât just walk into a Sephora or wherever youâve never been to before and expect to get out with much. Scoping is very important. While scoping out a place, take note of the following things
Camera placement
BlindspotsÂ
How friendly/involved/attentive SAs areÂ
What the other customers are wearingÂ
If itâs a place with clothing, go pretend to try on a few things to see their dressing room policy. Do they count? Are they unattended? Locked doors? Etc.
Dress like a basic bitch. You do NOT want to stand out.
If you have fun colored hair, I recommend investing in a wig.
If youâre hitting up a mall and feel worried about Mall Security being called after a particular store, these are the basic points for an impromptu outfit change to make it harder to pick up on you.Â
Hair: If you have long hair, put it up or take it down. If you have short hair, try and part it differently than it was. If youâre going hard AF, put on or take off your wig. I donât recommend wearing hats while lifting except maybe a crocheted beanie for style. If you have this, put it on or take it off.Â
Face: If you can see well enough with out them, take your glasses off. If you donât wear glasses, put on a fake pair. Glasses can drastically change a face. I donât recommend sunglasses for this technique because sunglasses inside can be sus af.Â
Top: Take off a jacket or sweater youâre wearing. Put on a sweater if youâre not wearing one. Hide the shirt you were wearing if you didnât have anything on
Wear average looking shoes that are comfy yet stylish.Â
If you know what you wanna get and you have something similar in size at home (Say you want a make up palette and you have one at home) PRACTICE CONCEALING. If you can get good at concealing quickly and stealthily you will be golden.Â
Only do this if you have to, but you can make your own blindspot by crouching down. You need to do things quickly because crouching can be sus.Â
Youâre a beginner, so donât expect multi-hundred dollar hauls first. You need to work your way up to it. Hone your skills. Itâs tempting to just go to a place and raid it on your first go, but resist that urge.Â
Pay attention to the sounds youâre hearing. You need to know if people are approaching you or if anyones calling for help on an intercom or something.
And as alwaysÂ
Donât get greedy
Donât get cocky
If you have a bad feeling in your gut then bail
Good luck

awesome!!! thx sm!
An underrated tip
Dress like a very conservative Christian woman. The other day I did a full day of lifting and dressed in a nice sweater, long black skirt, black tights, conservative black heeled boots, put my hair in a tight bun and wore a cross necklace, and wore very natural makeup, and Iâve literally never been sussed less in my entire life.
All the posts I see say to dress âtrendyâ and forgettable but dressing like a young lady who voted for trump and studies theology works so much better (at least in my area)
Yo I should do that. Tho not at Pink/Vs because my town has like the most churches per square mile in my state
Pro tip from my aunt:
âAlright Heather, listen up. Iâm sure you know all about concealing In bathrooms? Thereâs a trick to it. You know the decoys thing with dressing room concealing? Youâre doing the same thing in the bathroom, but modified. If you think youâre being watched, start acting shifty and shove a ton of stuff in your cart to conceal later. Just decoy items. Youâre not actually taking these. But act shifty. Really shifty. Like make eye contact with the cameras kinda shifty. Then go into the bathroom with your shit. Any lp or employee for that matter is gonna assume youâre concealing in the bathroom. But youâre not. Youâre gonna dump ALL of your decoys in that stall. Or just leave the cart in there. Make it look like you were gonna do it but changed your mind. Crinkle the packaging, scratch at a barcode tag as if youâre trying to peel it off. But leave it all in the bathroom. The lp guy is gonna go in there and see you dumped everything⊠except you didnt. You still have what you originally concealed. Maybe a little more if you had enough decoy items to hide some more stuff youâre taking. I donât recommend doing this regularly. If youâre LOADED in your bag and on body and know you canât get out without getting caught or without having to do the most embarrassingly obvious haul dump ever. This method is your ticket out of a sticky situation. If you do this though YOU ARE NOT TO RETURN TO THE STORE FOR MINIMUM 5 MONTHS. Make sure they forget you. Your dumb ass is gonna be memorable.â
DUDE HOLY FUCKING SHIT THESE ARE TIPS COMING FROM A WOMAN WHO TREATS HAULS UNDER $2K A FAILURE. R E A D T H I S ! ! ! ! !
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 employeesâ or camerasâ 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.

Important
Alright pals this is my favorite way to conceal on the floor, obviously when you do it in a store you are gonna be more sneaky. I just made it as obvious as possible so yâall can see exactly what Iâm doing. Also use something appropriate to the season, if itâs summer use a very light weight cardigan instead of a heavy scarf, but yâall already knew thatđâŒïžđđ
This concealing video is exactly the method I use in stores like Sephora!! Super helpful video right here
