What have you stolen?

Law is law, sin is sin, yet many people do this every single day in some form, be it malicious, for personal gain, trying to survive or just for shits and giggles, theft is all around us.

For many years I used to steal Twix chocolate bars or other small and easily snatched candy from a supermarket when in junior high. I didn't even enjoy them too much to be fair, sometimes took a bite and threw them away or gave them away to someone else. It was just for the juvenile thrill, the coaxing or for some sneaky satisfaction. I never thought about the ramifications, such as when I was caught trying to steal smokes - luckily it was a little shop in a little town and I got away with a warning. I, we all knew it wasn't right, but did it anyway. I know many people on NS have stolen rental poles, for example, without any big feelings of remorse.


So NS, what have you stolen in your lifetime, why did you do it and how does/did it make you feel?

when pokemon was super popular my grandma would always have a fat box of booster packs hidden in her house so when me or any of my cousins would go see her she'd give us a booster pack. well i found where she hid them and I would steal a ton of booster packs every time i was at her house. and when i was in high school i used to steal things from safeway pretty frequently. just candy and red bulls and stuff. i've stolen a few clothing items aswell. getting caught changes things though. i haven't stolen in almost 5 years... it doesn't come to my mind when i'm shopping anymore.

Well I went to the mountain for the first time with my brand new Armada poles, I go in for a little snack, and somebody steals my poles. In retaliation I go to the lost and found, and nab me some steezy ass graphite kids poles. Best trade ever.

at micheals prisma markers are like 3.50 each, so i just grab like half of what i want and pay for the rest, they're practically stealing from me at 3.50 a marker... and its not exactly hard to put a few single markers in your pocket. my friend walks into walmart with an empty backpack, goes and fills it with spray paint and just walks right out though. she gives me some, i have a job though so i don't rack that shit.

A shopping cart full of groceries and expensive meat. My friend worked as a cashier at a supermarket and would just put his hand over the scanner.

Also we stole a golf cart and thew it over a bridge to get rid of it. Ive also stolen many bags from ski resorts when I was younger (not something im proud of at all).

Mainly I destroyed a lot more things than stole.

Mostly just small things such as lighters, candy, drinks ect from stores, but also many weed plants, and a couple hundred pounds of copper and other stuff for scrap.

My friends sister is absolutely insane though, she will have someone drive her to the liquor store and proceed to make 3-4 trips in and out, walking out with an armload of liquor each time.

So I was in the parking lot outside of the redstone apartements in Burlington a few months ago early in the morning when this black kid walks out, takes a skateboard out of his car, tosses it under a tree, and drives away. It was actually 4/21 the day after so I assumed he was still blazed as fuck and wouldn't remember so I yanked that shit.

With this logic of software, music and films/series in the mix, basically something that is worth much more than what most people in this thread have grabbed physically. Thin line.

the only thing i can ever remember stealing was a pack of markers from walmart because i wanted to draw things and was in montana where i didnt have any writing utensils. It was about a 10 dollar pack of markers but if its under $20 ive heard walmart just makes you pay for it and leave.

some of the shit in this thread is ridiculous though, if you steal anything from anywhere but a large corporation you're a fucking asshole. Stealing from corner gas stations is fucked; if it's owned by one family and that's their only source of income, its the same thing as stealing from their house. Stealing directly from other people is the worst, have you ever gotten your shit stolen, it sucks, scum of the earth...

Anyone who steals skis off of the racks is an asshole. I've had poles stolen and it actually pisses me off so much.

My local ski hill built a new park a few years back,(dirt rollers for the jumps since we don't recieve much snow)so I hiked up there in the summer to check them out. On the hike down, I found a crappy ipod nano in the trees and decided to keep it. However the next season i lost my ipod touch on the same mountain. Karma won that one.

Other then that and music, i stole a street sign pole that was laying on ground in order to use as a rail. Never had the need to steal food or anything else.

Everyone knows WalMart has a no chase policy right? That means if you start running WalMart security won't/can't chase you down.

I find assigning physical value to virtual objects quite strange. The problem being where one can make a physical object, a music cd for example, out of a virtual object.

I was doing groceries a while back and i had a pretty full cart including a 24 on the bottom rack underneath the cart. While I was paying I completely forgot it was there and didn't notice till I was at my car. So I guess I technically stole a 24 pack.

I've never really got why people steal from resorts. Their daily power bill to run the lifts is more (well depends on your mountain) then what they can make selling lift tickets. They have to make money somewhere and Id rather it be from rich out of towners then locals that know just to bring a sack lunch from home.

I've never stolen anything , cant imagine having anything stolen from me...
But at the local super markets in my area you can use the self serve checkout.
Whenever one of my mates goes food shopping and buys meat (which can be quite expensive) he weighs it in as if it is Broccoli. He will buy like $50 worth of meat and get it for just a few Dollars.
They have no clue.

Forgot to add, I also stole a chapstick once, just like a .79 one. The line was really long, and I wasn't waiting to pay 79 cents.

How much do you think it costs to run chairs and cats all day? They have to pay for it somewhere, if youre dumb enough not to bring a sandwich that's on you.
