It depends on a lot, what state, what town in that state, how much the items were worth, what the items were, how you did it, who were you with when did it, if you did it before or have had other charges, were you on probation or parole, are you an illegal immigrant, do you have a good attorney, has the judge himself ever shoplifted before, did you cooperate with the store staff and police when you were arrested ? And you may find in some places, your sex and even race could be an unspoken issue.

Normally, I would say as in normal cases, anywhere, even it the amount totaled near $600.00, I would bet, NO time. Shoplifting is NOT taken very serious. A deal is usually made, were they even make the arrest disappear from you record, as long as you don't get in any more trouble for like a 6 month time period.

A very small amount of towns, may require bail money at the time of the arrest to avoid any jail time before you goto court.
