Today I got caught shoplifting at a supermarket. The security guard approached me and told me to empty my bag, retrieved the receipt fromt the self checkout machine and that is how I was caught. I was given a written notice of ban from the store and any of the branches, but the police was not contacted.
I feel extremely guilty and ashamed for this and know that I will never ever do this again. The thing though is that I have been repeatedly shoplifting at the store and know that if they check the CCTV, they will see that.
The reason I have been shoplifting is because I am a student and do not want to burden my parents any more than I do now, and also because I have an eating disorder where I feel compelled to binge etc.
I am full of remorse and am extremely embarassed. I have learned my lesson and will never do anything like this.
A concern that I have is that this supermarket is Waitrose, and I have been banned from entering any of their branches and using their online shop, as well as John Lewis.
However, I have a 1 yr contract with John Lewis Broadband for my wifi at my flat, with still a few more months to go.
Should I cancel the contract with John Lewis and pay a cancellation fee (pay an amount every month until contract ends), and get a new wifi contract from another company to avoid any potential risks of breaching the ban? I am not sure if they will be monitoring my use of the John Lewis Broadband, and how much the ban applies to. Even if I cancel, I will have to make a payment every month, so I will be interacting? with the company either way.
I have no idea of what I should do. Any help is appreciated, thank you.
