Defeating Colour Tags (the type Myer use) by Trech/Igloo Eddie
When stealing clothes from your local trendy fashion outlet
(in our case, a myer store) you have one small problem, yes
you've guessed it.. Colour Tags. These aren't specifically
designed to stop people stealing, but as a deterent since if
you break the tag heapsa permanent ink pours out. Well this
method doesn't hold true, and here's how to get around it :)
If you've stolen a small article of clothing, say a beanie it's
(usually) easy to get the tag off. Find a brick wall with a
post sticking outta it, now smash the colour tag on the side of
the post (swinging towards the wall) and quickly pull away.
The colour tag, and ink etc should head towards the wall and
leave a nice stain there. This method usually leaves a hole
a bit smaller than a square centimetre. If you can't find a
wall like that then I reckon you can pretty much figure out
what to do :)
If you are stealing (or someone else is!) jeans or shirts then
it's best to play it safe. You'll need two things, a lighter
(preferable a jet lighter) and a pair of plyers. Now grab the
piece of clothing and lay it out on your lap (make sure you're
outside and wearing old clothes since nothing is 100%). Start
to burn the colour tag slowly (at the hinge) and blow it out
as soon as it catches aflame. As the colour tag is melted you
can rip some of the plastic off with the plyers. Stop doing
this as soon as you can see four little holes, then you should
be able to tip the four ink rods out. The rods are pretty
sensetive so you can use them to throw at people, whatever heh.
Then just rip all the white shit off and cut the pin. This
is the best way to do it if you're careful, only problem is
it can get time consuming.
Of course if you're in a hurry and don't really give a shit
about the clothes you got, put the colour tag on the ground so
it's sorta like this (when you look at the ground - hey it's
better than nothing hehe)

now put a fifty cent piece on top of the pin through the
clothing. Heave yer foot up, prepare to stomp and SMASH
stamp as hard as you can on the fifty, then try taking the
tag off without staining the clothing, this has a failure
rate of almost 90% but hey.. who's gonna notice a little
blue ink around the collar :)
