Shoplifting
This page might contain information about activities that are not completely legal in all countries. Nomadwiki does not endorse illegal behavior. The authors of this page are not responsible for any of the actions taken by the readers of this page. This is for informational purposes only.
Shoplifting, also called and known as stealing, or sometimes "French shopping" in Australia, is an illegal way to get what you need without money.
According to Rachel Shteir's The Steal: A Cultural History of Shoplifting, 27 million Americans (nearly 10 percent of all U.S citizens) have tried shoplifting.
Unlike dumpster diving, Shoplifting is always illegal and is often against the moral code of almost all societies, and a majority of the people in those societies. This will include those who you feel are ideologically close, included those who are sensitive to food waste (even only theoretically or "politically"). Often, many people who believe in karma or have certain ethical thresholds don't do it and judge it negatively.
