My boyfriend is in loss prevention for a retail store.

Most of the time they'll give you a talking to and let you go. But they will make you feel humiliated about it. And make you never want to do it again.

Some of them will press charges. But most places won't because to be honest, other than your admission, they don't have proof that you stole it and have nothing to give to the cops for proof.

So you should be fine.

What state do you live in? How much was the bra? Depends on what your state considers a felony. It's very unlikely that they will press charges.

Unless it's like a $250 bra, I think they'll let you go. But don't take my word for it.

Your welcome. Good luck. Just be honest and MAKE SURE to tell them that you learned your lesson. Don't return it, pay for it.
