Wynn - the unsuspecting shoplifter

This is for you, mom.

It's funny. I just started celebrating christmas when I realise that people are celebrating thanksgiving.

Oh, and I shoplifted today. And totally got away with it!

Well, maybe I should elaborate..

I was walking around on the town, waiting for bf to mosey on downtown to pick me up because the never ending snowstorm we have here kind of wanted to kill me when I went outside, so I mooched a ride. Killing those last minutes off, I walked into the office supply store and realised that I need staples. To make christmas decorations. Let's not stop at las vegas-style, people!

So I grabbed a box of staples and continued to look at pretty wrapping papers and ribbons and what not, decided that I didn't want any of them and walked out of the store. I walked into the toy store and did my usual checking that I had my bags and mittens with me, and was pleased to see that I did. And.. the box of staples.

Oh no! But I totally got away with it, unknowingly. The thought of not going back in there hit me for a second, mostly because it's kind of embarassing to walk out of a store with unpaid stuff. But of course, because I am a very uninteresting person, I walked back into the supply store and told the cashier what I just did and paid for the staples.

Hopefully he won't recognise me later on.

And I have one more confession. Today I had to buy dandruff schampoo at the pharmacy. The pharmacy! Oh the terror and shame. My scalp is killing me. I should have shoplifted that instead, the damn thing cost a fortune. But hopefully it will, as I said to bf, "make my head healthy". He just answered with "Honey, nothing will make your head normal". Bastard.

I've totally done that walk out of a store with merchandise unintentionally thing and I too went back. Damn the honesty! :)

Also, I wanted your response to that douchebag to be, "Yes, but this expensive shampoo will fix my head, you'll look like a giant COCK forever!" Is that wrong? I don't think so...

Oh no an honest thief....hang on a second two honest theives...

As a Milk boy (many moons ago) I found a £10 note on a customers door stop. With out thinking I posted it through the letter box....My only excuse was it was early in the morning and I was not functioning properly....

And no it didn't make me feel good it made me feel like I had lost £10.....Arrgghhh the memory

LOL, I told bf and he laughed. I'm totally gonna start with that, because he always does the "YOU'RE a annoying habit!" and the like.

BlackLog:
Haha yeah, if I find money, I'll take it. Altough, I have never found money on someone's door stop..

I've never left a store and forgot to pay. But I did steal a piece of Bazooka gum once as a kid. I'm still traumatized by it, obviously. It's been 40 years. The place still exists. Dare me to go back and pay for it?

Wynn said...

Oh you totally should! I shoplifted gum when I was little too. I will never forget the look mom gave me. Needless to say, I never (almost) stole anything again.
