What does finesse mean when someone says I finessed tf out of Walmart

[existing_not_living]

Straight from the Urban Dictionary...

1. The unique ability to manuever seemlessly around people or objects in a smooth manner.

2. An art of persuasion or trickery in which an individual is able to get something they want with the cunning prowess of an illusionist or wizard.

3. Something done with ease as if second nature; easily transitioning to something else

Examples:

1. *Stephen Curry does a crosses over defender and lays up ball*

Me: OOOoooo he had some finesse with that crossover!
2. *Car salesman successfully sales friend a car with high interest rate.*

Me: Damn bruh, how you let him finesse you like that?
3. *Assignment due tomorrow, finished the night before and started playing PS4.

Me: Damn did that shit with finesse!

um I'm not sure what they meant by that but it doesn't sound like a compliment to me.

Finesse (from French finèsse) means doing something with great skill and in a careful, sometimes sophisticated way. For example you might build a house of playing cards with finesse. In your example, it probably means that you've snuck an item very skillfully out of Walmart (so nobody detected you).

Did you haggle the Walmart employees for a good deal on something? lol!

Maybe they didn't know what the word really meant or were just kidding.

-OR maybe they just meant that you carefully looked at everything in the store to get a good deal on something.
