the first picture of this post is the first thing I ever lifted, a pin from špêñçérś.

the second picture is a picture of my first haul. this was taken the day I started śtèáłîñg, during setember of 2019.

the third and fourth pictures are photos of one of my most recent hauls.

as you can see, the last pictures have a lot more stuff in them. a lot of people who have just started łifting want to get hauls that look simular to that. the feeling of taking things from a store, the idea that anything you want can be yours for free, is overwhelming and it can cause you to get greedy. but it is also what will get you caught. these two haul photos were taken a year apart. it took me a year of practicing, of learning techniques, of making mistakes, of growing and learning, to łift the way I do now. I didn’t just wake up one day with the ability to leave a mall with $500 worth of stuff, without being noticed. I started off with lipgloss and pins. with putting stuff in my sleeves and pockets. with taking only one or two things at a time. it’s so important to start small and to not get greedy. when you’re looking at huge haul pictures, done by other lifters on tumblr, it’s so easy to forget that the person taking those pictures has probably been łifting for months, if not years. they know all about concealing quickly, avoiding cameras, and most importantly they know what to do if they are sussed or approached by loss prevention.

-anthropolo/gie: refered to black employees as “nicks” and employees trained to watch poc shoppers. when pressured to post abt blm only posted a poem abt peace and equality w/o mentioning anything abt blm itself nor their own issues bcs white overpriced brand <3

-v/s, p/ink: obvi exclusive sizing and branding, plus gross sexual assault reports from models and female workers

-u/o: ceo is the worst. donated to anti-lgbt political campaign but still profits off of progressive pro-lgbt marketing and clothing. staff in the us are asked to work free weekends. also steals small independent company designs and significant designs from various cultures. remember their many, many insensitive designs? easily googlable !! 

-uniq/lo: overworks their workers in bad conditions w bad pay in a bad bullying culture

-prim/ark: remember the sos stitching and note from a chinese worker claiming they were worked like “oxen” scandal? maybe a hoax, but stay away anyway. (or do stay there. but steal lol)

-ga/p: tons of labour issues. allegations of forcing a woman to get an abortion, unpaid labour, etc.

-aritzia: donated to blm, but black employees report disrespect and even getting fired for speaking out

-reformation: sure, sustainable, but super racist corporate culture. consistently choosing white over black, better qualified employees for promotions. founder ignores black employees and posted a photo of herself w fried chicken for “black history month”. rob that overpriced bs !!!!

What you're going to need:

Fake email (don't use your personal info!!)

Expensive products from stores that sell skincare (Bath & Body Works, The Body Shop, Lush, Sephora, etc..)

Random address (only Bath & Body Works asks for this)

Phone number you're comfortable using

Photo of a fake rash (the one I used is below)

Photos of the products you're using to scam

A piece of paper with the fake email you're using written on it

I got this idea from another lifter, basically what you do is you lift some expensive shit from stores that sell skincare or makeup that is their own brand (Sephora or Ulta has their own makeup brands). Next you email customer service and tell them you got chemical burns from their products and you attach a photo of the chemical burns and a photo of the products along with the fake email you're using written on a paper (this is just to make you're lies more believable and to prove you actually have the product).

Customer service will most likely ask to speak with you directly on the phone. When they call you have a fake story ready (I told them I wore their products to homecoming and then I got a horrible rash). Bath & Body Works asked me for my address and zipcode so find a random address in your city and just use that. After you're done talking and you tell them your lies, they'll most likely email you with a gift card worth the same amount as the product that "burned" you. I've done this several times with different emails and different products and I've gotten like $150 worth of gift cards. If you want to scam you some free shit I attached the fake photo of the rash I was using so you can use it too.
