๐๐ A Beginner's Guide To Shoplifting ๐คซ๐ฎโโ๏ธ By fluttershy ๐
Section 1: Planning And Preparation ๐
๐ค Why Is Planning Important? ๐ค
Planning is one of, if not the most important aspect of lifting goods from any store that has employees present ๐๏ธ. Below are a few reasons why planning is important for lifting:
๐ - Good, thorough planning is, first and foremost, your best shot at being able to get in and out of a store with exactly what you came in for ๐.
๐จ - Good planning can make it easier for you to get away with lifting, and simultaneously harder for LP to bust you for it ๐ซ. For example, in certain jurisdictions you have to be witnessed lifting by LP in order for them to stop you ๐ต๏ธโโ๏ธ. Knowing characteristics of the store you are hitting and of the employees that work there can greatly influence what you are able to lift and the constraints under which you do so ๐ค.
๐ - Good planning can also ensure that you do not get into the bad habit of frequently engaging in bad habits ๐
โโ๏ธ. For example, many beginner lifters will, before pocketing an item, sharply look from left to right to make sure the "coast is clear" ๐ค. This move immediately will look suspicious to most LP, some of which have seen lifters telegraph this telltale sign that they are up to mischief ๐คซ. Properly planning and thinking about every aspect of a particular hit, in this case, may lead to you realizing how your actions in the store affect other people, which will affect your outcome ๐ค.
Planning Guidelines ๐
This section will be short, as this is a beginner's guide, and planning is first and foremost left to the discretion of the lifter ๐ค. There is no 1 right way to lift, in order to be successful you must adapt your lifting procedures to suit the environment in which you are lifting ๐. Below are a few questions you should ask yourself and think about long and hard before commencing any lick':
๐ค - How will I achieve my goal? ๐ฏ
๐ค - What is the store's security/layout like? ๐บ๏ธ
๐ฅ - What are the employees like? ๐ฅ
๐ค - Is this worth getting caught for given the risks I am taking? ๐ค
Scoping Out Potential Licks ๐
As mentioned previously, analyzing the store that you will be hitting is essential to not getting caught ๐ซ. It allows you to hit the store at the least dangerous times, to avoid cameras and LP, and to get in and out as quickly as possible โฑ๏ธ. My shortest lick is, although not timed exactly, likely at least sub-20 seconds ๐. I knew exactly what I wanted, where it was in the store, and also saw the only employee on shift nodding off ๐ด. Here are some tips and tricks for analyzing stores:
๐ What To Look For ๐
๐บ๏ธ - Store Layout ๐บ๏ธ
๐ฅ - Employee Layout ๐ฅ
๐ธ - Camera locations ๐ธ
๐จ - LP ๐จ
Section 2: Types Of Stores And Their Characteristics ๐ข
In this section, I will cover the most common types of stores to lift from, and comment on characteristics that are common amongst all stores of said type ๐.
๐ข - Grocery Stores ๐
๐ข - Department Stores ๐๏ธ
๐ข - Electronics Stores ๐ฑ
๐ข - Gas Stations โฝ๏ธ
Section 3: Dressing For The Job ๐
How you present yourself to not only store employees, but also to other customers is important if you don't want to raise suspicion ๐ค. Below are some tips and tricks for dressing for a lick:
๐ - Dress inconspicuously ๐
๐ - Cargo Pants ๐
๐ - Sweat pants ๐
๐งฅ - Hoodie ๐งฅ
๐งฅ - Coats ๐งฅ
๐ฉ - Beanies/Ball Caps ๐ฉ
๐ - Purse ๐

This is an excellent guide. I found the materials presented to be extremely hard hitting and unique, information that could not have been found anywhere all presented in one place. The fact you've taken such time to write up this guide is a clear indicate of the concise understanding you have in a niche topic. It truly demonstrates an expert level understanding of the core fundamentals of shoving a 4 loco into your pocket at the gas station. Great job.

see; my thread where I make the argument that stealing actually isn't illegal but is a valid economic activity that meats the definition of value and labor ie work, trade, capitalism
