Smile Robbing a convenience store?

I need $200 by Friday. I've decided to hold up a Stop-n-Go near my house, or steal a car to get there.

anyways, could people give me tips, if anyone's done it, could you please advise me.

I'm most worried about...

1) Worker retaliation (the guy is pretty tough)
2) Law enforcment
3) No money (I've heard sometimes there's only like $30 in the register?

Thanks

Holdups are almost always a bad idea, especialy that you live in the states and the worker looks tough, and like you said, there usually isnt much money in the register, I sugest, unless the place is open 24/7, break into it while its closed and steal all the cigarettes, over here we were able to sell all of em in a little less than one week.

you would have more luck going into best buy, and stealing 10 xbox360 games. At $30 a game, that is $300.

Just grab and run.

robbing a convenience store is just a bad idea... camera's, not much money, the risk just isn't worth the reward cause not to many people get away with it and prison isn't worth a couple hundred bucks. you ever think of other places to rob? a bar on friday or saturday night? wait untill close and go in after everyone has left. Just think of how much money is in the pull tab boxes alone. find some back woods bar or something. Maybe a hotel or a small store thats open 24/7. I would recon different locations so you can pick the best one. find a place that only has 1 person working and try to find one with a young girl who value's her life more than the money. I'm 6'2" 200 pounds and if i worked in a convienence store and some kid came in and put a gun in my face he sure better pull the trigger cause i'd spend half an hour kicking his ass before i called the cops. also pick a place thats gonna pay out enough so you can bring another person in to be your wheel man. That way you can have your buddy parked a block away sitting in the car with it running. I deffinately would not flee on foot cause depending on the cops reaction time there gonna be all over the place and anyone walking the street in the area is going to get hassled.

smart. even if he was a pussy, and didnt want to kill the person, a pussy would rather just kill someone that get his ass kicked or embarrassed. not that i believe your really that dumb, you've just never been in the situation, and you think you could pull some jackie chan trick.

if your willing to die for $100 thats not even yours, i dont know what to tell you. personally if i was working at a convenience store, i wouldnt give a fuck about the money. even if i had a gun there, im not going to try to kill anybody if they arent looking like they're going to kill me. because if i killed them, i'd get charged with something, all for somebody elses money.

EDIT: to the op, it is stupid. why not go to the place at 2am, throw a brick through the window, and grab the register, and cartons of cigarrettes? it would take cops way more time to get there, than responding to a call about a robbery, less serious of a crime, plus you would get the same thing.

Not everyone will pull the trigger and from the robbers side of thing people do fight back it does happen. and the smash and grab idea it just isn't worth it. Most people who try to pull this off get caught. what are you going to do run across town with a register? that doesn't look suspicious or anything. and cop reaction time isn't something you can assume is going to be slow. if they're patrolling a block away you're going to get caught. also how much money do you honestly think they're going to leave in the register over night?

ya, saw this guy rob one of those little 7/11's by my house, he only had a knife and the guy behind the counter was a foreigner so he kept threatening him and he kept mumbling some other language and pissed the other guy off until the foreign guy jumped from behind the counter and took him down, not the best idea

It isn't worth the risk. You can get 20 years in prison EASY for this and you may only get about 30$ unless its a BP . From what I heard they have safes in the back with about 3000 dollars in them but that may be wrong.

I advise that if you are going to knock something over knock over a bank.

now before you think "ARE YOU CRAZY GMT" here are some interesting facts about stores and banks.

convenience stores are allowed to have guns, allowed to chase you and kick the shit out of you and they usually don't have that much cash.

banks have lots of money and can't legally chase you, they have to give you the money by law and regulations of many banks and they can only call the cops once you left the building. plus you don't need any weapons all you need is a note. make sure to include in the note NO FUCKING DYE PACKS OR GPS TRACKERS, i also think they must comply with that but i haven't tried that one. and as if i had to tell you but rob a bank without a security officer and make sure it isn't a private bank. Don't forget a disguise.

ask for 2000, more than likely they'll give it to you pronto considering they are getting robbed and banks hold on average 15,000-100,000's of dollars depending on the location and the need of service and bank transactions in the area.

good luck!
