before i sleep, i’m going to type out some things i collected from lift-pros who have deactivated their blogs and adopted into my own routine! i’ll 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: 

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, i’ll 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 caught 

earphones (personal preference, but i find that music calms me and makes me look nonchalant. sometimes i won’t even listen to anything so that i can appear occupied, but actually be attentively listening around me.)

when i enter my first store, i’ll 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 you’re checking our your appearance. 

try to take some items without hangers, so that you can put those items onto hangers when you have extras. 

once i’ve taken a couple items i want along with some larger items with pockets (jeans, overalls, collared shirts) i’ll go to a changing room. if an attendant asks me how many items i have, i’ll lie and say 2 less than what i have. if they physically count the items, then i’ll probably only steal one item. if no one gives a shit, then still, don’t be too careless about stealing items. there’s still video cameras. 

***MAKE SURE not to steal a boldly printed/colored item that’s showing in your pile of clothing or the first item that you’re holding. they’ll probably notice it’s gone, or at least there’s a greater risk. ***

in the changing room, i’ll probably take my shoes off so i don’t look suspicious from underneath the curtain. and if the curtain doesn’t 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 didn’t see anything. 

after i take the tags off of the items i want, i’ll put the tags into or onto the clothes i don’t want. DOUBLE CHECK FOR TAGS PLEASE!!!! THERE’S CHANCES OF EXTRA HARD AND SOFT TAGS. i’ll put the clothes i detagged in my purse. if i don’t have space, i might wear the item of clothing if it’s small and unnoticeable. when i exit the changing room, i’ll most likely leave one item that has been untouched on the rack outside of the changing room. 

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 it’s pretty sketchy when a tag falls out of a pocket or if there’s an extra on there. 

i usually take the items with the tags and bring them back out to the store, if i’m not lazy i’ll 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. 

so you probably noticed i haven’t mentioned the shopping bags yet. this isn’t 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 can’t 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. 

then i hit up other stores! except at these other stores, i can put the clothes i take into the shopping bag.

tips: 

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 could’ve 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, you’ll get punished so much harder because you were shoplifting with the intent.

3. DON’T RUN!!! don’t 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 don’t 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 don’t risk it. no item is worth a record, especially since we’re all young with our futures ahead of us.

5. find somewhere to put your tags. don’t be careless. i’ve seen people just leave the tags in the changing room, it’s not necessarily traceable but it draws attention to the fact that shoplifting is prevalent in the store. what i’ve 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. 

6. always be nice to the SA. if they talk to you, they’re just doing their job and being polite. but if they’re following you around a little too closely, they’re probably suspicious of you. 

7. dress appropriately for the store. this is also a given, but don’t 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. don’tttt please don’t go to one store too much and never buy anything. give it some time. if an store attendant asks, i like to say that i’m just trying on things and i’m going to tell my mom what i want so we can come back. also, don’t always go at like 4:00 on a tuesday. change it up, so you catch different employees at different shifts. 

9. don’t grab a shitton of stuff and then steal a large portion of it. for me it’s usually: stealing one item for every four pieces i grab, two if the SA’s aren’t nearby or paying attention, or if i concealed really well.  

10. you don’t NEED to buy a small thing to alleviate suspicion. i understand the logic, but honestly i’d just get out of the store. don’t stay longer than you need to. 

11. when you’re leaving, don’t rush out. walk sloow and calm like any normal shopper would. i get it. you wanna get out ASAP. but you also don’t want to be sus. fake a phone call if you must. or look at your phone. just be natural. 

12. DON’T BE AFRAID TO WASTE A DAY ON SCOUTING. lifting at a new store is very exciting but sometimes they might have something you’re not familiar with, like at zara, they will scan every single clothing item and make sure there’s a tag when you’re 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 it’s useful for you but some of the stores i go to have a level for men’s wear and a level for women. often times, the changing rooms on the men’s level will have fewer people and fewer SA’s. if you feel like the SA’s on the women’s level are hardasses about the clothes in your arm, check out the men’s level. 

14. DON’T TAKE WHAT YOU DON’T NEED. don’t be greedy. this is just me, but i take only things i will actually wear. some people boost, so that’s different, but don’t be greedy. stores will probably notice a larger loss in inventory way sooner. pleaseee don’t be greedy. sometimes shoplifting is so easy you think you can get away with anything, but it’s 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. there’s a ton of big, flashy hauls on tumblr, but you don’t need to compete with others. go at your own speed. 

15. don’t ever underestimate the fact that shoplifting is still a crime. even if you’re a teenager, you’ll be punished. don’t forget that. you can still stick it to the man, just, be careful. 

other methods besides dressing room concealing:

so there’s 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 doesn’t work for me, so i’m sorry i didn’t cover it. i’m afraid of blind spots not actually being blind spots and i’m also afraid of tags. if there’s jewelry i want or something non-clothing, i’ll 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 i’ve seen have tags as well so be careful. i’ve taken shoes, bikinis, jewelry, socks and underwear this way ahaha i’d say it’s effective but you need to know your store.

I make my IDs by finding templates of certain state IDs online and tweaking them in photoshop. I resize them, print them on heavy cardstock/teslin paper, glue them together, then I use a laminator. I recommend ordering a kit from brainstormidsupply.com, even though it’s fucking expensive. when I first started ID making at the age of like 18 I actually printed the first one I ever made and taped it (with packaging tape) over a blank business card and it fooled people for years lmfaooo.

yes, majority of if not all ID cards and driver’s licenses come with holograms (assuming that’s what you mean by ‘stamp’) and you can get them easily from amazon but for specific states and more accurate authentication I order mine, ironically, off of sites where you can buy fake IDs (the holograms are much cheaper than the IDs themselves which is why I make my own).

here’s the picture I was talking about – I used my real ID as an example bc I’m still editing and touching up my fakes but yeah, the bottom of the card is obviously sticking out but if you pushed it a bit further in the space it’d be basically impossible to get out (it took me 5 minutes to get my real ID out so that makes it more believable lol)

here’s what it looks like without a card inside:

Bruh, don’t forget first-aid shit!

So I decided to post this here in the main shoplifting tag as I felt it didn’t give anything away but some useful ass tips, and yall mofos should follow my private blog for more tips like this cause I ain’t posting any more here lol. 

Also it’s all messed up in the tag, just saw that. Sorry. It’s all organized and cute on my blog thingy.

So I named this an uncute tag simply because it’s not cute. I’ve been doing just fine without these special extra tools or tricks and haven’t been caught yet. Some things aren’t for everyone. I’ll list what will get you caught/addicted.

Magnet’s/Hooks: These nifty little tools are great for people who sell shoplifted goods for a living however these can get you in a  LOAD of shit.

For example:

I personally would never consider purchasing a magnet/hook, as this can lead to addictive behavior. Remember that shoplifting and all of this is a CRIME. It is not a job or hobby. IT’S NOTHING WRONG WITH HAVING THEM, I JUST WOULDN’T GET THEM, THATS ALL.

Being caught and having these on you will change your petty crime charges into something wayyyyy more serious. You can go from a fine to actual real real jail time.

You get stuck to metal objects. Now a good friend of mine on here told me about how she would get stuck to displays  when she had her magnets on her. Suspicious or nah?

They’re very loud, if you’re in a quiet store the only thing employee’s will hear is the sound of you detaching tags. no good.

BEING LOUD AND ABOUT: Have you just known someone who was loud about everything? Will in the world of being a criminal, being loud and just plain out there can ruin your life. Literally. You want to be so quiet and out of view that they forgot you ever came in the store.

Ways to ruin your stealth:

Dropping Items. Like this is actually really bad, don’t do this, keep steady hands.

Talking to EVERY employee. It’s okay to talk to one at the MOST. But don’t talk to every employee because they’ll just be on your back trying to continue a conversation with you.

Being and look awkward. This means being clumsy, and fidgeting, it’s really hard to conceal while fidgeting, i’ll tell you one thing.

Having a HUGE bag. Nothing more suspicious. Like you’ll knock things down and look awkward and causing you to speak to employee’s and you’ll be breaking all the rules listed here, lol.

Having BAD partners: It’s one thing to shoplift, but to shoplift with a bad partner is asking to be thrown in the slammer.

Effects of having a bad partner and how it Affects you:

They get caught, you get caught. Rather they snitch or you to are close together.

They’re obvious. From the moment they walk in they’re suspicious.

They’re loud and about. Always in the view, can’t shut up and act so proud.

They’re clueless. ”Are you going to steal that?!” Bad partner asks while lp is already prepared to tackle you.

They act like children. Following behind you, always asking what to do, chickening out.

 Will sell you out. They will cry, beg and plead to lp that you kidnapped them and made them shoplift.

Shoplifting EVERY DAY: This is a complete no no. I shouldn’t have to explain why.

What it will do to you and your well being:

It will become addictive. It will, no doubt about it. You’ll want to shoplift everyday, want to shoplift bigger things and get sloppy while at it.

You’ll become an even bigger cheap-stake. You’ll cry over paying for that 1$ bottle of soda because you could have stuffed it in your butthole, oooo nooo.

You’ll become recognized. The cameras will see you more often, entering the store and not buying a single thing if not shoplifting their store. They’ll start to wonder why certain items you picked up went missing and you’ll be the suspect. Next time you come in, BAM, RIGHT IN SLAMMER.

You’ll get lazy.I mentioned this but you will. You’ll want every thing to just come without a price and slip and then BAM, RIGHT IN THE SLAMMER.

You’ll get caught. You will, you didn’t listen to this beautiful post, and did all the things I said not to do and now look at you. In da slammer ye go.
