Mine was in the supermarket a few weeks ago... I usually eat a croissant from the bakery section while I shop. Now, technically it's thieving, but I write it off as a supermarket tax which I feel obliged to charge Tesco while I'm in there.

So, what's the last thing you stole & when?

Stealing is what scumbags do.

Ehh... about four years ago in first year of college, I was given €60 by my parents to buy a calculus book. I spent it on drinks as I was accustomed to do at the time. I then went into a certain bookstore in town, stuck it in my bag after pretending to look at it for a while, and walked out. What can ya do?

Used to fleece Eason's and Hodges Figgis for all my acedemic documentation and drink the cash.

When I was in college I robbed 300m meters of paper (It was about a meter and a half wide and ten inches or so wide) from a skip. Drunk as a stick hauled this roll out, over the shoulder and home.

Woke up the next morning, looked at my quarry and rolled it under my bed. It remained there until I was moving out of the gaff. My oul fella was in the house saying how the creche at home was looking for money to buy paper and materials for art. I produced my 300m roll of paper and promptly donated it to the creche.

Heaped with praise I was.

I illegally downloaded some Irish band's entire back catalogue there recently.

StarBelsomething-or-other I think they're called.

Can't remember but it was definitely a supermarket food item like the OP.

Kids are good for covering your tracks as you can blame them on the empty packet if you're caught.

Stationary from my former employer.............lots of stationary.

I do remember a mate of mine working in a big store on the Naas Road (its where Woodies is now) it sold furniture and electrical goods. Anyway, two guys arrive to the store, double park at the door and get out. All dressed up as electricians with Phillips on the rear of their Hi-Vis vests.
They head straight for the 50" plasma (one of the first in Ireland) and proceed to remove it from display. A salesman went over to see what was happening and they got him to sign for them removing it as Phillips had issued a recall due to some type of gas escaping from them.
They took about 15 minutes to get if wrapped up and loaded and off they went.
Needless to say they were not from Phillips!

Two pieces of butter from the breakfast place in Dublin airport. I hid them under my toast. I hate being charged 20 cent a pop for a tiny amount of butter when I've already paid for the toast. It's like buying a car then being charged for brakes.

That is so annoying. I went to Paris a few months back and bought a couple of coffees in McDonalds (the only place I could find open wi-fi... the hotel offered to lease a 200 year old Powerline ethernet modem which clearly wouldn't plug into my iPod) and they wanted like 60c for a stupid UHT milk thingy, each. Scabby fools :mad:

The last physical thing I remember piking was a Dime bar from an already-opened multipack in the Crumlin shopping centre branch of Quinnsworth (IIRC). Me and my mate were about 12 years old, saw this pack that would end up thrown out anyway and decided to "casually" stuff a bar each up our sleeves and walk out in the most wooden, unnatural way possible.
As soon as we got outside he was laughing, but I spent the next 5 minutes looking over my shoulder and sweating. Wuss. :rolleyes:

After that, I suppose it was mostly just the obligatory music and the odd film online, which I don't really class as theft (although smarter people differ). Some years ago I did decide never to pay the full ticket fare on the 19A route again, since the bus driver would simply issue the cheaper ticket and rack up a big change ticket for himself at the end of the route. :pac: Then eventually realised that dumping about 97 cent of small change into the machine was sufficient for any Dublin bus ticket.

A couple of weeks ago I found €2 in the change thingy of the Tesco self service checkout. I took it and put it in a charity tin. It made me feel like Robin Hood.

I stole a southern fried chicken breast from Morrisons yesterday. Scrawny little thing, £1.09!

And I've been paying a child fare instead of an adult for the past two years.


I robbed a lemon from Tesco once accidentally. It was on my way back from school, I needed it for cooking and for some reason, put it in my blazer pocket. Paid for the rest of the shopping then found that when I got home

every day i put about 50 cent in 5 cents into the bus, then ask for 2.20

About a year ago myself and a friend were going camping, spent most of our money on drink & fags so we had to acquire snacks by other means.

Chilli nuts,walkers,galaxys, there's no limit when you have a huge bag.


Good god, I sound like such a scumbag.:(

Whispered

In a pub in Dublin, I was in the ladies and saw a poster on the back of the door. At the time it was REALLY interesting, advertising an event I just HAD to go to. It was in one of those hard plastic covers that get screwed to the door.

So I spent about ten mins unscrewing it with my finger nails, folded it up and stuck it in my bag feeling very pleased with myself.

When I woke up the next day in the hotel I couldn't for the life of me understand why I had robbed it. And my nails were broken and sore.

the odd bar etc... as a young lad with my lunch.
pay for the roll and drink and "forget" that you had a bar in your pocket.


the only thing i regularly do to this day is steal one or two sweets from the pix and mix ,"to see if they taste right"

Liam Byrne

Nothing. I'm not a low-life criminal.

Sad state of affairs that a thread asks what's the "last" thing you've nicked, implying that most who reply have stolen stuff more than once.

EDIT : I lied. I nicked myself shaving @ the weekend.

I was getting a 3v voucher the other week in a shop, a girl I knew was working there (she doesn't like me and tortured me and some other girls at school) and kept telling me my card was faulty and I need to get a new one blah blah blah :rolleyes: I was a bit put out so I went on my account to order a new one and found that it actually went through. 100 euro richer Did I feel guilty?.. maybe a little but feck it she had it coming to her.

When I was in college we were told about a planned fire drill. So, about 20 minutes before the drill I strolled down to the libary, picked out a few books I needed and waited for the alarm. Once the alarm went, the books went in the bag and I went out the emergency exit, bypassing the libary alarm thing that beeps when you havent checked out a book. I used to always get ripped off in that libary with fines/printing fees etc so was delighted to get my moneys worth off them in the end

You can read! :eek: Wow! That's amazing! I'm soooooo impressed I've wet myself.

Will you be learning how to actually type next year, and formulate your own informed opinions the year after, so that you can express yourself with stuff other than dots and make a valid non-ignorant, informed point ?

Best of luck with that!
