How I Used To Steal Alcohol ------------------------------- by Brendan S First, you check your bag before walking in. Sure, you can slip a bottle u n d e r your coat, but stealing alcohol is a serious matter. *I ended up bootlegging bottles to people, I got so good at it. My trick was this: "walk out of the store with an angry look on your face." -- Being me, since I'm already an asshole, this trick tends to work pretty well. You can use a coat, and hold the bottle with your hand in your pocket (propped) or slide the bottle into a backpack, close to the display (so no camera's see you) and then walk out, the same way you came in. However, one special trick is to purchase an "iced tea" or some bullshit like that, while you've got the shit in your bag. I stole scotch. I stole whiskey. Two bottles at a time, sometimes. And I sold it to high-school kids. I also had an excess of pills in college, that I no longer wanted. (10 mg valiums). My friends would snort it. They were always fucked up. I've stolen, and sold drugs, just to survive, for a while now. But the funniest thing I've probably ever done is steal alcohol, while my parents were h o a r d i n g my check money, and I did it entirely to spite them. :) -b
