People do that shit all the time. Mostly it goes unnoticed.
The problem with petty theft is that you build your confidence and the problem grows, eventually taking on a life of it's own.
Even if you were to be caught ripping of something cheap, nothing would likely happen. But typically when people get caught is when they make a habit of ripping off shit, especially expensive items.
When I was 11, one time I wanted a couple extra quarters to go play stupid-ass videos games. I snuck into the change jar. No big deal but I got away with it. Next time, just a couple more. It eventually became a habit and I got caught red-handed. I got my ass beat and grounded that day after school. I said, "fuck stealing" after that.
Yep, you get confident, careless, and THAT is when you get caught.
So honestly, best to not develop the habit to begin with.
Is it normal to steal if something is outrageously priced?
