When I was a kid I used to steal video games and candies justfor a thrill but I got caught eventually. My friends would steal beer from a corner store when we were 12 and we drank it.
Thats about it, Iwouldn't do it again cause I don't think its worth the risk but I know a lot of people who steal food and little overpriced ahit from hardware stores while they're shoping for something bigger.
And of course I think like 80% of people steal something at self check out. How could you resist it its so easy?

I bought a leather jacket off ebay once while I was high out of my fucking mind. I saw it and thought it would be so cool. Black, padded shoulders, lots of angular 80s looking shit to it. It was a good brand too. Got it and was no longer high. Didn't understand why I bought it. Tried it on, made me look like a kid wearing daddy's clothes. Took it off. Never wore it again.

I love crate digging at record stores for vinyl and secondhand stores still have plenty. I'm not looking for metal or techno or anything I usually listen to, anything that's outside of my musical comfort zone the better.
I like it when it's non-musical recordings as well like recordings of audio plays, stand-up comedy albums, or teaching materials for learning a language.
I found a collection of 95 year old shellac records as well.
The funniest thing I got so far was an instructional vinyl for square dancing that also had musical accompaniments, so it's just this cowboy guy going AND ONE AND TWO AND LEFT AND TURN AND CLAP YOUR HANDS AAAAND BOW TO YOUR PARTNER, SPIN! just belting out directions and instructions for 40 minutes over fiddle music, it's great. Like I said I know nothing of square dancing or the music so this was a complete outsider's oddity to me
and oh my god the prices it's selling for on ebay, I should check all my records, not that I'd be selling them.
Also I was really high when listening to it

I love thrifting.. I really like finding old books people had with their notes in it and stuff. I recently found a pocket dictionary from 1944 which I thought was really cool, and it even had the previous owner's name and address lol

Best finds:
Almost new, full set of Ping golf clubs w/bag. $20
Black leather motorcycle jacket from Germany. Retailed for $550. I paid $50.
I get a lot of workout clothes. UA, Nike, Adidas, etc... I buy based on what I need, take it home and look it up. Generally 10% of retail.

I go nearly weekly and focus on historical military items. It got me through college and I still do it for fun, but I wouldn't do it if I were still in school since it's too dangerous nowadays and the ROI isn't as good anymore.
