If you are desperate for money, you could always shoplift at a corporate chain (make sure its not a mom&pop small bussiness) rather than turning on your fellow man.
(Edit: Not saying that you should shoplift, but its still better than turning in the perpetrator)
Preferably the one you hate the most. For example Tesco. In my country they as much as doubled the prices without their Clubcard, and they have these "discounts" on almost all products. I haven't been there as a customer for quite a while. Most likely over a year or two.
But it's also a bit personal.
They schedule inventories in the shop overlapping with the opening times. Now, this isn't just the mistake of Tesco (we are a different company), but they do decide on the times. What I mean by in-shop is not in the warehouse, but actually where the customers are.
We are required to be accurate, sort the products on the shelves if there was a mess and face it. This is then checked by someone else. Facing needs to be done well, but slight inaccuracies in counts are accepted (1 or 2 items). Your speed is also measured, by the way.
This is all OK, except that now there's customers to fuck with it. They can take items, put them back, or just make a plain old mess. Plus you can't guard all the shelves. Because of that, I was shocked when I was in Tesco like this for the first time. "If the customer takes something, ask them for barcodes and count of each item they're taking, write those down on a piece of paper and report them to me."
So... you'll give me a piece of paper, right? RIGHT? (no.)
Imagine that as a customer. Let's say you take a few pens and are about to put them into your shopping cart, suddenly someone very much not from Tesco runs up to you "WAIT!! Can I see the items first? I need to write down the barcodes. Is this all you took? Ok. Um... do you... do you have some paper? No? Shit, please wait here, I'll be right back! (One eternity passes) ..."
THANKFULLY, I avoided that. There were only 2 parents who talked about having to buy some of those plastic book covers ASAP as the school year was just starting, but my scared and startled look, probably/hopefully looking like "Please don't take those. Please...", made them change their minds. I've heard one of them say something like "It's busy here, let's not bother them. We'll try elsewhere."
I assume this discourages a lot of night-time customers. But I'll be fair, Billa also schedules such inventories.
