items lifted: - my boyfriend’s virginity 😎

Never gotten caught with these bad boys

-Cup trick: where you take a not clear cup, like a coffee cup, and while walking around the store drop small items into your (clean and empty!) cup. 

-Elastic belt trick: take a piece of elastic from the sewing store (the good kind) and tie/sew it around your waist. Make sure it fits, but is not tight! Then, wear a semi-baggy jacket (It’s that time of year!) and when you conceal, do it on your person by sneaking this to fit snuggly into that elastic band

-The inflatable bag: Take a very large ziplock or two, depends on the bag size, and blow them and stick them in your bag to make it look full. Then, while in a blind spot, as you put things in slowly deflate the bag to make it look proportionally as full as it was when you left. 

-The Big Boots: take a large pair of non-sus knee high boots. make sure you can fit like, half your arm in the boot, because its so roomy. you know what I’m taking about. As you “shop”, drop things like jewelry, makeup, small packs of condoms, stickers, buttons, you know the drill. It may get uncomfortable in your shoe, but eh. Worth it, right?

Some (un)common knowledge:

-If you’re gonna lift clothes then for petes sake look at the price tag before you hold it up to your body or take it to the dressing rooms

-Don’t lift nail polish by putting up your sleeve it will fall out and break and BAM you’re caught

-Putting something between your thighs as a way of lifting is really hard because you have to walk out perfectly normal

-If you get shaky hands or get really nervous, pull out your phone and pretend to call/text someone to meet you at the store. This way, when you leave without buying anything, it looks like you went outside to find your friend

-Dont start pulling out your goods in the parking lot. Rookie mistake here. Wait until you get in your car with doors locked and windows rolled up. Even better, wait till you’re at home. 

-Scope the store out a couple of days before you lift

-Trust your gut

-Try to avoid backpacks; instead go for a purse type thing. Easier to slip things in

- Don’t try to avoid LP. Ask at them only one or two times, if you make eye contact with them, just smile and wave. If you think someone is watching you, go up to Lp and ask shit like “do u have wet n’ wild mascara? Is there any pink ribbon here? What foundation tone should i use?” Seem interested while they talk. But don’t get too friendly. 

-Be cautious and observant but not paranoid and jumpy

-if you get a bad vibe, leave with what you’ve already concealed. Not getting your hair dye is better then getting a fine.

-Lifting while wearing a skin tight sundress is hard mode. 

-Barcodes don’t set off alarms unless theres a RDIF under it so check!! 

-If you cant afford a hook or magnet, then use a seam ripper for what you can. If you don’t mind small holes in clothes, that is.

hey guys does your kroger have this new scan system??

you literally scan everything yourself while you’re shopping! then go to self checkout and scan the register when you’re done. i swear i got every other thing for FREE with this method (is it even a method at this point? they fucking made it?!)

GUYS THIS IS A LIFTERS PARADISE HANDED TO THEM! DONT ruin it for everyone by being sloppy!!

This is what I do !!

I scan half the items (the trick is to scan the larger, on sale items to cover the little expensive ones.. for example i bought $1.79 chicken breast to cover 2 dunkin’ donuts ice coffees(that you cannot even see right in the photo))..

oh and as for the little items just pretend to scan and don’t waste time. use the little plastic baggies to cover up your baby lifts. bUt you cannot CANNOT be nervous; just mind ya damn business and snatch your avacados. (well not really snatch but get a blind spot and pretend to scan AND THEN GO LIKE IT SAYS ON THE BAG BITCH)

THIS PLAN IS FOOL PROOF HERE because my kroger doesn’t even check each item they just take your scanner and make sure the items in plain sight are up on the screen.

i hope you all are blessed with this new technology in stores that ISNT against us now! if you guys have a new Scan And Go system at your kroger be sure to buy something small (and not lift) at first to see how it goes down at self checkout.

1) Untag your items before exiting the store! If you do not plan to untag, make sure the item is IN YOUR PURSE, and not on your person and clearly visible to SA! 

2) Stop leaving packaging everywhere, I know you want two earrings from that large set of earrings, so you lift only those 2 earrings, but why leave the rest in your blindspot?? Now I know what area to keep an eye on.

3) Watch SA behaviour as you exit the change room! Where they staring at what you were holding when you left? Did they rush to your change room immediately? If they did, LEAVE NOW! THEY ARE CALLING SECURITY!

4) If you plan to wear clothes out, wear it UNDER your clothes and make sure it’s not visible. We notice if you’re suddenly wearing a different shirt.

5) Don’t travel in packs, we will watch you like crazy
