Gear Database

This gear database catalogs security equipment in Secure the Supermarket by STOP STEALING!!! — the tools you buy with Cash to scan receipts, stop shoplifters, and survive powerful criminals. Names and numbers may shift when STOP STEALING!!! patches the experience; cross-check live shops in-game and read Updates after each release.

For buy order, use Gear Ranking on the tier list. For income to afford gear, see Cash & Upgrades.

Stat glossary

Terms used across guides and tier lists:

  • Scan speed — time to complete receipt review
  • Reveal — auto-highlight unpaid items
  • Stun duration — how long shoplifters stay detainable
  • Range — reach for pull or melee tools
  • Cooldown — delay before reuse (not confirmed per item)

Exact numeric values must be read in-game — wiki lists roles until dataminers publish tables.

Gear vs scripts

Scripts may expose ESP or auto-detain features that mimic top gear illegally — account bans outweigh convenience. Legitimate gear progress counts toward Badges & Achievements.

Future gear

New supermarket areas [SOON] may add regional exclusives. This database expands when items appear in public builds.

Know your tools — shoplifters know the exits.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions.

Where do I buy gear in Secure the Supermarket?

Use Cash at the in-game upgrade shop. Exact menu labels are not confirmed; earn Cash via Cash & Upgrades strategies.

What is the most important gear type?

Receipt scanners and detain tools split priority. Buy scan upgrades first if mistakes are frequent; buy detain if thieves escape often.

Do gear stats match Secure the Airport?

No. Games are separate despite inspiration. Use this database and Gear Ranking for supermarket-specific advice.

Are there Robux-only items?

Possibly, but not verified here. Compare any paid item to earned S-tier tools before purchasing.

How do I update this database after a patch?

Check Updates for balance notes, then compare Gear Ranking tiers and re-test items in a live shift.
