always carry cash grab what you need quickly and get to the counter. if they try and refuse service slap enough to cover what you know youve taken and leave, they can fuck around and check cameras all they like. where im at shop theft laws are *very very specific* as in, security people making shoptheft arrests and getting it wrong lose licenses and sometimes go to jail for unlawful detention - 'did the person make any attempt to pay for the goods does the person have the funds to pay for the goods' "Are you refusing to let me pay for these goods?" "Im refusing you service" "Are you refusing to accept payment for these goods?" "Im r..." "Thanks, see ya" walk out. They stop me they get flattened. They call the police they will get asked those questions i just raised. If yes to either, theyll hang up the phone.
