This isn't working for me, the first pickpocket works fine but she ALWAYS catches me on my second attempt, anyone know why? I have a very low sneak skill btw.

 

I had the same problem at my first few tries, then I told Lily to wait in the room next door (not sure if that helped) and I moved my character a tiny bit and waited for like 1-2 seconds every time a pick-pocketed the bubblegum from her. Still got caught some times, but thats OK if you just save every 3-4th time and reload if necessary. Hope that helps!

theres an easier way...get your stealth up to 100, then go into the Vault 21 casino. there's a group of 3 women standing and having a chat. crouch behind any of them and pick their can pork n beans. it must be glitched cuz the can never leaves their inventory, and they never get pissed if youre noticed picking them. just keep doing that over and over. if you get caught, move on to the next woman in the group.

 

Thanks friedmad.

This worked like a charm.

if you do get caught you won't be able to pickpocket from them.

And if you are caught 3 or more times, then you get chased by a whole bunch of angry customers with pool cues.

 

Just rotate between groups and save every 5-10 successful pickpockets.

This was very fast, as there are usually 3 groups of 3 in that main room.

 

You don't even need a stealth boy.

Just had 100 stealth skill with a skill magazine ( 80 + skill magazine), and just pickpocketed one group 2 full rounds, save, and repeat the process with another group.

Thanks for this. Very helpful, and still works post-patch (the bubblegum in the gift shop chick's pocket).

 

Same as you, I was able to do this with 1 stealth boy. Should be easy enough for anyone to do it that way so long as they don't dick around and just take the bubblegum, back out and immediately go back in. I saved after every 3 attempts, any more seemed like I was pushing my luck, but I only had a 21 in Sneak.

I went to level 30 messiah. I never stole unless it was a keycard or some awesome weapon. Last few levels I got up to sneak skill 90 read the sneak magazine and changed into business wear that gave me +1 agility (light armor). All this matched up with stealth boy made this achievement really easy stealing the gum.
