Get the Boosting mug.When I lived in Detroit in the early 90's, it was a term widely used to refer to professional shoplifters.
Craig was a hustler whose main source of income derived from boosting. One of the items he regularly boosted were as many 4-packs of alkaline batteries as he could fit in the outer and hidden inner pockets of his overcoat, usually off the shelves of K-Marts, large pharmacies or wherever they were on display in racks some distance from the cash registers. He had a fence who operated out of a liquor store on Michigan Ave. who would pay him 1/3 their retail price.

The stolen cars are usually muscle cars, import and domestic street cars, donks and cars of luxury or high trade in value. This practice is very common in cities with many "Chop Shops" such as: Oakland, Detroit, St. Louis, Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
The phrase was made known by the movie "Fast and the Furious" (2001) when Dominic (Vin Diesel) finds out Brian (Paul Walker) was incarcerated for "Boosting Cars".
