Burglary of parked cars without breaking and entering. Typically oocurs in affluent middle-class sprawl where security is minimal and surveillance predictable. Shoppers may operate in low traffic parking lots or by night in residential areas.
Thieves will target unlocked vehicles for small valuables like sunglasses, loose change, wallets, CDs, small electronics and accessories. Stereo equipment and other permanent installations are generally left undisturbed. Occasionally a car shopper may force entry when a visible briefcase, backpack, or box is likely to contain exceptionally valuable items (e.g. laptop computer or merchandise)
To evade detection and remain inconspicuous, perpetrators selectively target favorable conditions. Ideal targets include street parking adjacent to dwellings with lax security and multiple luxury vehicles. Classification of a likely owner and proximity to that person's residency may also be taken into account.
To protect your residence, professional security or visible evidence of pets are the highest deterrents. Automatic appliances activated by timer or motion detection provide effective low cost security. Vanity lighting and sprinkler systems offer additional utilitarian deterrence as well.

Get the Face stomping mug.Going around urban areas, picking up things people have placed outside their homes on the curb, meant for someone to take them or for the garbage trucks to collect them. Either in nice weather when many people are doing big spring cleanings, or on designated house-clearance dates posted by officials, on the curb in front of people's houses you will see bookcases, desks, large plastic toys, bikes, lawnmowers, and things of similar nature. During these times you will see families driving around with a rented trailer browsing through things and taking what they deem sellable.
Dude, look at that gypsy family curb shopping with their van. They are driving through the suburbs with 2 mph stopping traffic, and things are falling off the roof at every speed bump.
