Best Answer

The majority of shoplifting occurs to provide finance or favour for drug addiction's The drug users sell goods on the black market (outside of taxation) to people in hardship conditions who would otherwise struggle to afford luxuries; most common items stolen are now basic groceries .When purchasing discounted stuffs the buyer diverts funds to their chosen drugs usually alcohol or cigarette's. Another shoplifting crime is the' buzz' committing crimes increase the criminals endorphins ,the heart rate rockets and the thief gets a heightened sense of awareness and ' high' from the fear of getting caught

. Stealing for profit is most common but the 'buzz' can be quite additive.Cleptomania is the name for the addition to theft at a dangerous and socially crippling level.
