Been watching a lot of Live PD and Cops and i wanna starting lifting. I want to start small and easy with Pokemon cards. My Walmart is one of the more high quality ones and I know they have better then average security. Just need to know how to bypass the doors and how to go about it. They have cards in toy section and in the card section which one do i go.
I've never actually seen someone in the act, but I have seen torn packaging in the back of shelves various times. Hell, I've seen more than just card boxes left behind. It got to the point where I started doing everyone a favor by trashing them or just hiding the scraps. The more loose these people are the more that the store's gonna be looking into shoplifting (and consequently at me)
It may just be because my area is super easy and has little to no dedicated LP. I can just get a Walmart bag and fill it with Pokemon cards then walk out.
If your Walmart is a little harder (which may just seem hard in your eyes), then try getting the Pokemon cards and go to a blind spot then load up and leave.
If your Walmart is EXTREMELY HARD and you want to be extra secure, then grab the Pokemon cards, take them to a blind spot, hide them in an area they won't touch, leave them there and come back in a few days. If its still there, then that probably means that they don't know you left it there. Conceal it and walk out. AKA staging.
Aye thanks and yea my Walmart is pretty intense I know a lot of dudes who work there and their manager got fired 2 months ago for tackling a shoplifter. This shit was hilarious on the video. But yea I would say pretty hard because its a model story for share holders and stuff.
Damn good luck bro. What do you need pokemon cards for?
fun and cards are worth upwards of 20-50 dollars
Damn really? Where do you sell em?
ebay
Do they sell well?
Yugioh cards do, not sure about pokemon.
Hm might have to get into it then :)
Check for tags under the fold of the card packet - they're not immediately visible but I have found them there before.
I'm probably way too late to the point you won't even know I responded. I know a method for stealing the tins. Grab one, go somewhere secretive where people and cameras can't see you, take off the plastic wrapping (Some stores might remove that already for whatever dumb reason) and take off the cardboard sheet thing on the bottom of the tin. Since the barcode is there, you SHOULD (Not tried it myself) be able to just dispose of the sheet and walk out with the tin. Let me repeat, this MIGHT not work since I haven't tested it. Good luck, if you read this.
I know how you can do it. I've never been caught doing this either. Wear a like, clothing store cloth bag around your neck, and make sure it's facing the way you can see it, aka, your stomach. After that, wear a T-shirt over it, and then I recommend you put a black hoodie over it so people can't see the bag and/or the cards when you put them in there. After that, go to the pokemon isle and make sure it's only the plastic packaging on the cards when you steal them, and then slide them in your bag. You gotta make sure that you aren't being watched and that the cards dont bulge out of the hoodie. After that, the security won't go off, due to the fact that the security sensors only detect a type of metal when walked through. The barcode has nothing to do with the security, due to the fact that you have to be right up close to it and nothing surrounding it in order for them to be scanned. You're welcome. Haha.

I remember one time (Walmart) when me and my brother were passing by a clothing aisle, saw a boy tearing the shit out of a pokemon box under a round clothing rack. He looked at us and continued to do his thing. I didn't really care much but found it hilarious due to the fact that he only picked out the "rare" cards and left out the common ones scattered around the floor. One of the more unusual shoplifting events iv'e seen.
