Well from a clearance box I took a fake plastic kids ring, a small bunny keychain, and a fake little earring. I just tore the barcode off, pretty easy but I'm smarter than to do that again.

Just your heart!! Ok that was lame. No wait, this past winter..I accidently stole nailpolish from WalMart. I meant to put it away bc Im starting to get cheap LOl, but it accidently went into my DOTS bag-the store I was just in. OMG..I wouldve died if I had gotten caught. LOl. I was even going to return the polish (I have a REALLY big guilty conscience), but that polish looked better and better each second..

I stole Tootsie Rolls from my corner drugstore all the time! They were at the edge of the counter all the time and I felt so guilty after I ate one. But I got over it quick enough, lol. The saddest day in history was when they closed the Drug Store down to open up a Chiropracters office. The nerve!!!

My friend and I stole these bulbous gizmos that were supposed to be used for spraying water on clothes while ironing. they had a trigger like a hose spray trigger. We used them like squirtguns They were terrifically powerful. they,d shoot a soaking squirt several feet. I don't remember how we discovered those things but we had a blast with them.

:eek: How DARE they!!!

Oh..I never stole them (no wait..I think I brought home like 2 or 3 lol), but I used to ALWAYS pull the flowers off the stems @ the lil flower part of WalMart and Kmart etc. and throw them on the ground. Hmm.I guess I pulled a lot of things. I used to pull off the buttons off our couch and chair. Probably why we got a new set...My how I mature in 2 weeks!:D lol

I've never stolen anything. I know girl who has though. She really is a great person and she knows that it's wrong but she explained that she gets a great buzz from it that she can't get any other way and that it's kinda like an addiction. I can understand that to a certain extent but I still think it's wrong and I'd certainly never do it myself.

I remember stealing some stickers from the grocery store when I was about 10. Sticker collecting was really big then and it seemed like all the other kids had them and I wanted them too and didn't have money to pay for them so I stole them.

I've never actually "stolen" anything....cause I was too little to realize this-

My mom was pushing me in the cart at Bradlee's and I grabbed a plastic baseball off the shelf and hid it. My mom didn't realize it until we were gone.

OK, before you all think I'm horrible and I get prosecuted, I was one year old.

I was 4 when I stole this cool toy airplane from a store. I took it home and showed my mother. "Mom, you want to touch my new plane I got?" I asked. So she tapped it with her finger and said, "Touch, touch!" (She didn't have any idea HOW I got it...) So I went out to play with it, and when I saw her drive off with one of her friends, I started crying and broke up my brand new plane on the pavement. :crying: Then I heard the neighbor lady say, "Aw, Greg's crying because his toy plane got broken..." Actually, it was I was suffering from the parental separation anxiety, but then I DID feel bad that this nice shiny red plane I got from a five-finger discount was destroyed and I could have had hours of fun playing with it if I didn't have one of my tantrums...

Funny how I feel bad about things like that still.:(

A few years ago a Hotel gave us really bad service so I took a very nice towel of theirs. But ya know, I think I ended up putting it back before we left.

I used to eat these little football-shaped chocolate candies in the grocery store while my mom was checking out. She may have paid for them, but I'm not sure. I'm not sure if she ever even realized I was eating them.

When I was a few years old...I don't remember, maybe five....I was over at a friends house in my neighborhood and saw a dime on his bureau. I had never had more than a few pennies before. I just took it. Early that evening, I showed it to my mother and she asked where I had gotten it. When I told her, she and my father made me put all of my clothes back on and walk with them, back up to my friend's house, ring the bell, tell his mother what I had done and apologize. I really, really didn't want to go, and begged to be allowed not to go, but my parents were inflexible. As far as I know, that's the last time I ever stole anything.

Many, many years later, as an adult, I thanked my mother for doing that for me. She said, "I'm glad to hear you say that. I've been afraid all these years that I was too harsh." I said, "No you weren't. If you hadn't done that and a few other things like that when I was growing up, I probably wouldn't know the difference between right and wrong now."

I never stole anything, I was a good girl.:)

Although I recall being in 8th grade walking around Bradlees and contemplating whether or not to steal some stupid ring. Seriously, I was like thinking hard about it for 10 minutes. Im such a loser.:rolleyes:

Remember the 1980s cartoon the Smurfs?

Well, I was at the grocery store with my grandmother when I was a little kid and I stole a pink Smurfs ball.

My cousin found it in my purse and told my grandmother. She told my mother and she was sooooooo mad at me. She was going to make me take the ball back and apoligize for stealing it.

But my grandmother knew that my mom would probably kill me for stealing it so my grandmother took me to the store. I had to return it.

I never stole it!!!!!!! I am not a criminal!! lol

Ohh wait.. I just remembered that last year or so me and Amanda were walking around Wal-Mart with our bags from Dots. Well anyways, I had picked up some nailpolish and a few other things but put everything back. However, when I got home the nail polish was in the Dots bag and I started freaking out. I was thinking I was gonna be arrested and God knows what. I was even gonna bring it back but I think I have it still. Its somewhere in my room.. never did use it.

When I was a very young child, riding around in the shopping cart, I reached over and grabbed a Bun candy bar off of the shelf. i thought that my Mom noticed and would pay for it as we left the store. Once we got outside the store she asked me, "Where did you get that?" I think that we went back into the store and she paid for it then.

When I was a little older I did something that isn't, technically, stealing.
I open up several packs of baseball cards, right in the store. The store manger caught me and told me not to come back.
