do you think that people will tell you that kind of thing here?
I don't condone shoplifting- it's a crime.
However, I did find some interesting information on the "magnetic strip" that stores use to prevent shoplifting, and I offer this to you just so you can learn how these things work:

you can also put the words magnetic strip shoplifting into your search engine and find some interesting things to read, however I will not cite them here because you really shouldn't shoplift.

If you shoplift and get caught (first offense) that would be "petty theft". If you achieve this same aim by disabling the tracking tab, however, I think you'll find that's a much more serious crime since it couldn't possibly be an "unplanned oversight" on your part, and they will just take you straight to jail, even if it's a $2.00 item.

Simply take the item to the register, pay for it, and let the cashier remove it. way cheaper than jail .
