No, you shouldn’t. For starters you’ll need a fence - there are shady recyclers but you probably won’t know who they are - which isn’t exactly a quick process. And second, you’re just dooming another person into poverty. Plus, bikes may have GPS trackers or other identifying information. What happens if you don’t realize or have time to remove them? What happens when a fence gets caught and snitches and they’re able to cross reference the locations/ID with you?

Weed dispensaries can only use cash for the most part. If they don’t have armed security or any advanced security gates, you know where I’m going here. In addition to the cash, if you take the weed products then there are dumb middle and high schoolers willing to drop a dime for a joint, especially if they don’t know anyone else who can provide it or knowledgable in street prices. The same can be said about pharmacies, although your clientele probably won’t be secondary school students.

As for clothes, I would say honestly just swipe shit from the thrift shops. Like most of it is old clothes and will be landfill. 99% of people won’t try to be heroes of grand dad’s old clothes. But 99% of those clothes will be clean and wearable. Use masks and different outfits, obviously, especially if you can’t travel to multiple stores. Don’t create a pattern, put a pebble in your shoe. Case it out before hand to see where the formal and business casual clothes are sectioned - this is to wear for your job interview. And this is gonna sound fucked up - but since you’re not harming them, I don’t think it’s too bad - but GoodWill exploits a lot of disabled workers. You probably won’t be tackled by anyone if you’re spotted. 99% of the time there’s like 3 workers so you probably don’t need to be brazen with a ski mask or anything lol. Just walk out.

For food, you can try dumpster diving. Though it may be locked. But, with the weed, you can bribe some kid working at the store to keep it open for you. If the store isn’t being monitored by a mall cop, you can just walk out. Most greeters and receipt checkers are like 90 years old and probably won’t chase you down (you have the legal right to simply walk away if a worker asks for your receipt. You only become legally detained if you agree to be searched). A lot of stores will have little traffic in certain areas that lead you to the outer edge of the store, i.e., the path where customers leave the store. Act natural and even mall cops won’t bother you. But be aware that cameras are watching.
