How often do you steal?

    Right I was in the chemist last weekend and casually stole a lipgloss, simply held it in the palm of my hand underneath my wallet and paid for other items I had picked up at the counter.

    Got me thinking, this happens every so often. I hardly ever pay for birthday cards, usually slip them inside a newspaper and pay for that.

    I never steal necessities just things I want and can't be bothered to pay for.

    Actually just remembered this minute that I stole from Macy's in New York (Mac foundation)......that is pretty bad.

    I think it started with stuffing Mr. Freeze's up the sleeve of my school uniform jumper :D.

    So does anyone else steal stuff for fun? If so what kind of stuff and how often?

    Hi Alison

    Still feeling blue due to over-paying for your apartment?

    Do your own research!

    Not since late teens.

    The thought of being nabbed at any age older than that for nicking small stuff would be too mortifying and not really worth it.

    Well I like many others would not 'physically' steal items from shops. However I do download the odd file from the internet and I know that is bold.

    A lesser man than myself, not me mind, but a lesser man, might call you a bit of an itinerant for doing what you do so often.

    How are you fixed for pilfering a 32 inch HD-ready Saorview-approved TV for me? You could slip it inside your newspaper. They'll never know.

    My family does it for me. I keep them in the boiler house. They come out at night and go around the village stealing peoples' essences.

    I did the old ice pop up the sleeve when I was younger. All my friends went through a phase of stealing when they were 14/15.
    Wouldn't even dream of it now. Except downloading, that's the acceptable form of stealing

    Back in the day I accidentally walked out of a newsagents without paying for my copy of the Beano. Ran back to pay for it though; I was a good boy.

    According to my parents I managed to walk out of Dunnes holding a rather fetching set of Flintstones pajamas too, they returned them though.

    I wouldn't do anything that I wouldn't like done to me.

    I take it you'd be perfectly ok if someone stole from you OP? Or is that 'different'?
