if you bring a few reusable bags you can just leave like half the stuff you're buying in there.
ideally you don't shoplift anything you don't have the money for, so if you get stopped you just pay for it. wear headphones and listen to music or a podcast that you can get really into and act like you're not really paying attention to what you're doing, and they usually don't care
also wear a hoodie with a big pocket to stick small stuff in
Yeah this is how I've accidentally shoplifted. I bring my reusable bags and always have another bag folded up in the main bag. I just put shit off the shelf directly into my bag because they never got any damn hand baskets at the entrance. So yeah I accidentally forgot something in the bag when I was checking out once. Mind you it was a serrano pepper worth like $.15 so ymmv.
