I really needed a new pair of shoes. I lost my job two months ago(im only 16). I figured i could try to steal a pair it wouldn't be that hard.
So i rode my bike to Kohl's. But i figured while im here i auta try to pickup a shirt and pants, cuz my cloths are running low. I pick up a 22 dollar pair of pants anhd 20 dollar shirt(also i grabbed 2 of the 20 dollar shirt and stuffed one without a hangar into the other) and go into the dressing room, and while walking in i read a sign that said, there are hidden electronic tags on the clothes. The same sign was in the dressing room.So im like whatever ill have to find the tag and take it off. I tore off all the little sales tags on the jeans and this little plastic rubber stitch in the jeans. Im turning the pair of jeans inside out wondering where the hell could this tag be, i dont think any of those things are the tag.
Meanwhile im hearing all these urgent codes over the PA. I don't think anything of it. Then i hear someone telling security to go to the dressing room. Im like holy shit **** this i gotta go. Then i hear a lady go "Did you call 911." "Yes."
Im scared shitless at this point, i turn the jeans rightside in grab the clothes and walk out cassually. This huge ****in black guy is starin at me, and this lady. I stare back for a moment and then just walk around them. The lady continues to follow me, i put the clothes on some random racks and walk outt he store. When i go pass the anti-theft machine she sorta just stares like she exspects it to go off.
I go outside she follows me right next to me, i dont say anything to her i just glance at her like "What the ****,:" I grabbed my bike and booked it down the highway, going as fast as i can until i got home.
Anyone know how the hell they caught me? Did security see me stuffing that second shirt in the orignal shirt? Or did that little plastic stitch actually be a tag that went off when i broke it? How the hell did it go off? Do they have sensors in the dressing room?
1 more thing. I am not scum or lowlife, i could only steal from a department, corporate store. I could never steal from an individual or a local, community store, it's morally wrong.
Im trying to fight the corporate fat cats.
You should have had a ski mask on, steal the clothes, run out the store, jump on your bike and book it. That's just me
You should have had money
Not too mention that you were probably obvious as all hell, being as young and stupid as you are.
The employees are trained to watch customers, not just help them. (I used to work overnight stock at a Kohl's, not that it makes me an expert or anything).
Any fool knows that you don't mess with the tags in the open.
Take your time(but not too much) and grab 3 or 4 things to hide the 1 you really want.
Make the switch in the dressing room.
Shoes should have been easier for you. I used to stock all the new shoes that would come in, and we found a whole bunch of boxes with some old, nasty shoes in them that someone switched.
Just put em on and walk out casual-like.
I haven't stolen anything in 5 years, but I used to be pretty good at it.
I'm not recommending you to do it, just giving you the answer you really wanted to your question.
But don't try again... you're to much of a n00b! 👀
bahahaha!
You're stupid. I stole shit better than you when I was elementary school, loser. I dont steal anymore, I bragged once and someone i thought was a friend gave me up and I got into some serious trouble, but I was 8 years old so they let me off.
Anyway, the point is, if you don't want to be someone's prisonbitch, dont steal. Someone will catch you.
