Default Stealing (shoplifting) who has/ who hasn't?

I can admit, back in college (10 years ago), we used to have friends ring us up at the grocery store and miss half of the items (by accident)...... also used to hand someone a $20 bill and get 2 $10's for change..plus a bag of stuff.

I personally hadn't stolen any HUGE amount of anything all at once, but I guess if you added up all of the free beer I drank where I used to work, free food where I worked, free pocket change from the soda machines, free bicycle renting $ because it wasn't recorded, umm...... I should stop now right.?

Anyway.... that was 10 years ago...i am a good boy now!

Anyone else a former thief?

I used to steal candy as a kid. Stuck smashed pennys and nickels to play quarter video game machines. I had friends that used to string up quarters to get a bunch of credits. Sometimes using a battery to pound the machines got free games too. That's about it though, nothing big.

Gotta admit to this. Yea, I've stolen before, back when I was a kid, only in Jr. High. After that, notta. Tapes, CD's, Nintendo games, stuff like that. I just wanted to press my luck at the time. When I'd take tapes, I had a jean jacket that I could stuff em in, sometimes up to four at a time - and these weren't just the tapes, these had those big white plastic things that are supposed to deter you from stealing!

Okay, so am I going to go to hell for that? Or would you think differently of me now that you know that? I was a stupid kid then. I've changed a lot since then and there's nothing I can do to correct those errs in my past.

No details...but yeah I have. It was a long time ago and nothing big. But sometimes I wish I had gotten caught so I could say I paid my dues and my conscience would be clear of it. Oh well, just another line on the long list of regrets.

I still remember Todd Stewart telling me how he stole candy and put it in his puffy pockets of his winter jacket...that is when it all began...about age 8 or 9.... then we stole comic books, then one of my buddies stole a WAGNER POWERPAINTER...put the damned thing in a shopping cart and walked right out of wards with it. Of course we didn't have any way to use it in our "cabin in the woods", but.....

My older sister hopped in on shoplifting, then got caught..ahahahha

I'm a pussy now, can't do it anymore...
but I used to steal cans of spray paint to satisfy my graffiti obsession, and also lots of food during my frequent snowboard trips.
