borrowing tips 101 ๐
6 life saving borrowing tips so that you are guaranteed to get what you want everytime without getting caught! ๐ซง
1. ALWAYS go with someone - if you go on your own you automatically draw more attention to yourself and having another person there can be more comforting+you can help eachother (remember only do this if you know for sure the person if comfortable with it NEVER borrow when your with someone without consent because they could get into trouble along with you)
2. Stay calm - speaking from experience, if you are constantly looking at security guards and acting suspicious you WILL get caught. Itโs all about mindset walk out as you usually would but donโt be too obvious.
3. For beginners - if you are a beginner start off stealing small things for example, candy, cheap lipglosses, charms etc. Trust me it will build more skill and if you get caught the worst they would do is kick you out.
4. Go when itโs busy but not too busy! - when itโs busy there are barely any workers and so many people itโs hard for them to keep up. If somebody who isnโt a worker sees you itโs an 80% chance they wonโt snitch, most likely if they are 10-20 ish years old they wonโt but older people tend to snitch more often so be careful!
5. Check tags - if the store you are going into has no sensors most likely the security tags wonโt matter at all with barcodes you can leave almost any store because they donโt go off but with some items they hide the tag inside of the box so be careful and check before lifting!
6. The most important step, donโt overthink it - when lifting just see what you like and take it, if you like you can check over everything after but do not linger or you will get caught! If you decide you donโt want something anymore still leave with it taking and putting it back is very risky and could get you into trouble just have an โI see it, I like it, I want it , I got it โ mindset.

extras
what to wear:
jeans with leggings underneath (so things wonโt fall out or shove small things in your waistband
bring a bag (not a huge tote bag itโs obvious more like a tote bag or if your in a mall/ shopping area bring a bag from another store (buy something small) to make it look like your just going on a spree
(for female lifters) I recommend push up bras with a crop/low neck top so that itโs easier to shove things in (and the store canโt legally search you if you get caught)
hoodies but it can be kinda obvious
stores to go to:
I recommend going to mini stores from a large chain because half of the time they have a scrawny security guard with 1 to 2 workers there and they wonโt be able to stop you
