I stole a book from a book shop, because I was bored. I was young, and the shop in question had high security so it was a challenge. Would I do it again no, I'm more into murder and bizarre sex crimes these days, so minor crimes are so passé. :smile:

As for stealing from work the English are the biggest thieves in Europe. I have stolen stuff, but it was stuff I could of taken if I'd asked, so no biggy.

Oh and I still have an old book on microscopy I never returned, but that was an oversight rather than deliberate theft.

The sample make-up from Superdrug... it's not really stealing though because you can't buy them. :shy2:

I once let gerbils loose in a pet shop on purpose because i didn't like how small the cages where. Does that count as stealing? I'm going to London zoo soon, i suppose i can find out then.

I stole a bracelet from a stall at the airshow at the beach when I was about 13, I have shoplifted other things since then but all from major chain stores or supermarkets (I have no guilt complex doing this because they make enough money) I knooooow thats a bad way to see it, but I don't care. I guess I see it kind of as a victimless crime. Whereas the stall was run by like just normal nice people who probably didn't make THAT much money because the bracelets are only £1 each.

I FEEL SO BAD ABOUT IT. I've wanted to go back every year and just give them the money but each year the airshow date falls when I am at Reading Festival. THIS YEAR IT IS THE WEEK BEFORE! So I've planned to buy another bracelet, pay with a £20 note and tell them to keep the change. I feel so mean and selfish :frown:

No.

Well.... In year 2, pencils used to end up in my pencil case (to be fair, my own colouring pencils were exactly the same make as the ones at school). I gained several of some colours and was left with none in others.

A few years ago, I was looking through my old school things, and found 2 reading books I accidently brought with me when I moved house (and consquently school) in year 2.

Never stolen anything deliberately though - I have a very large guilt complex. I mean, when I was 9 I wanted to get a security guard over because an old man had stolen a turkish delight from the Tesco pick and mix (I saw him eat it!). He even lied to his wife!

Haha - I love my guilt complex :biggrin:

I've never stolen from a shop... I've stolen stuff from random people before though, nothing serious

A fake onion from a homeware store.
A fake book (the kind that you can put stuff in) from the same store.

Really random things. I might be a kleptomaniac, actually.
The only thing I ever stole that I wanted was a pocket full of jelly bellies in Amsterdam. (Makes me sound cooler than I actually am; it was a school trip, and I think I was 13?)

Next time I go to Ikea I shall rob them of one of their Swedish books. Excellent.
