      Who would go to all that trouble for £1? Anyone minded to report it would surely be glad to do so for free anyway. Maybe I’m missing something.

      Setting aside any other moral issues with having customers report shoplifters, a £1 reward is an absolute fucking joke

      Who the fuck in the boardroom came up with this absolute braindead idea?

      It’s not even worth the time stood around trying to find someone and then waiting while they “verify the theft”.

      Go to Iceland, shoplift £1 item. Report yourself, earn £1 and pay for the item using the reward money. Infinite money hack.

      But if you don’t have an Iceland loyalty card, you get nothing, not even a quid out the till. God they really think we’re peasants don’t they.

      What’s stopping me and a friend doing this at every Iceland in the country, each taking it turns to be the thief and the do-gooder, we’ll rake it in.

      My local Iceland doesn’t have enough staff to do anything about shoplifters

      Do we get a card like saving for Christmas we put shoplifter stamps in all the pounds will add up and will be able to buy a jar of coffee at the end of the year

      If I see someone shoplifting from Iceland, I assume they need it far more than I, godspeed to them and their crimes.

      Customers are going to be exposed to abuse and violence as a direct result of this. Absolute atrocious idea.

      Ten years back I was street homeless for a 18 months. I had to steal quite often. I’d walk out of Tesco express, Iceland, home bargains, Poundland with a sandwich and a drink or something equivalent. That’s all I ever took and that was because of necessity.

      I got caught a couple of times but had no choice and I don’t feel ashamed to admit it. When you’ve got nothing and no one you will do what you have to. I didn’t beg, I didn’t sit in dirty clothes. Those were choices but I couldn’t choose to not eat. Not for long.

      My point is, if you reported me for stealing from a company as big as these guys in order to feed myself then I hope you choke on your quid. If you report a mother for stealing baby formula, I hope you sleep well.

      Though, If you report a junkie for stealing a basket full of cheese and meat then good on you. There has to be a moral judgement if you can make one based on what you see.

      But will Norway dish out a peace prize if I nab a tealeaf?

    13. EnPassanTuah on

      I’d be reporting my girlfriend and mates every visit 😂

      *CEO has lost touch with reality; asks for free labour from public, to fight shoplifting*

      Here’s your title.

      Shop a shoplifter is only 3 steps from shop someone who isn’t down with the totalitarian regime.

    16. LordLucian on

      If I saw someone stealing bread or beans to feed themselves then I didnt see anything.
      People are struggling as it is

      Iceland population is less than a town. You think they would already know who the tea leafs are.

    20. Wildarf on

      You are all missing the point. The idea is not that they will somehow start catching shoplifters, the idea is to get the press involved and to create a sense of being watched by everyone in the store for the shoplifters.

    21. Wildarf on

      That’s because they are not trying to actually incentivize reports. They are just trying to get shoplifters nervous that MAYBE others will report them

    22. Separate_Tax_2647 on

      Feels like a psychological play: ‘Everyone is looking for shoplifters to get their quid, so I better not shoplift here.’

    23. qwerty_1965 on

      Mum’s gone to Iceland to report a shoplifter for pound.

    24. Ace786ace on

      All against shop lifting especially when its of goods to be sold on for a profit. However, if I see someone who looks hungry or a mother stealing baby formula then I didnt see shit.

    25. Spirited_Opposite on

      Why don’t they just use this money to hire proper security staff? Between having to scan your own stuff and this, it’s like we’re the workers rather than customers 

    26. normanriches on

      Getting filled in by a shoplifter who sees you grassing, no thanks.

    27. ThatSwagRandomGuy on

      There’s also an offer of 3 for £10. So not a bad deal
