Okay, so I have been doing it like 3 times from the place when it was busy but i always buy something. The last time i did it, i lifted a digital camera and ipod. I heard CAMERA LOCKUP and i got the hell out.. Does anyone know what that means? They kept calling for a manager.. Plus any tips for shoplifting there?

there's like 5 different stickies with shoplifting tips.
geez.

I never heard of a camera lockup. Good thing you ran though.

I say quit while you are ahead and steal from some place easier like walmart. Among other things Sears has LP people on the floors as well as actively monitoring the cameras. It sounds like you almost got caught and if you keep it up eventually you will be.

Usually it's good to go with your instinct on these things. If you think they're onto you, or that some message over the intercom is about you, don't second guess yourself. Get out and don't go back for awhile.

Tip: Don't get caught
