I'm a small shopkeeper. Do you realise that if you steal something worth £20 I have to sell at least an extra £200 worth to replace it.
Some folk seem to think that all the days takings are profit. Hollow laugh. We have to pay for the goods, wages, heat, light, rent, taxes, insurance, bank charges (very high) a percentage on all sales paid by card, shopfitting, maintenance contracts, computer upgrades the list goes on and on. The point is you are not Robin Hood robbing the rich.
We like to think and treat our customers as friends. I feel betrayed and upset when we catch someone stealing from us. .

Hi! a lot of liars answering this question ! ho!ho! .. lets not get all holier than thou folks .. We have all nicked something - knowingly or unconsciously at some point.. Surely most people nick something at Asda,Tesco, Walmart etc.... when you are doing you shopping.. my Daughter has at least 1 packet of Crisps and a Coke ... Most expensive was a Hi-fi - must have been a few hundred pounds about 10 years ago.. feel guilty - of course I dont !! we get taxed like crazy so we deserve a wee freebie now & then..

OK listen some people never shop lift but some may do it's a 50 50 chance that it will happen. It will only happen to the person that's willing to go to jail. Now I never did shop lift and I will never and hopefully you won't ever again.

Haven't shop lifted since I was about 7 and I got caught by my parents and that was an eraser, so about 30p.

I do not shoplift, nor have I ever. SOME of us have ethics.
