I've been thinking about security cameras. But I don't know how good the quality is. Chances are this dick is doing it at night, and won't necessarily turn on the lights. I found a couple of cameras on fleabay. They are disguised as intruder alarm pir's, which I'm pretty sure I could get away with. However, I wouldn't want to blow the chance of catching him because the footage was inconclusive.

Does anyone know anything about these type of tiny security cams?

What Brand/model were you looking at. Im a CCTV installer (US) and ive used some of the PIR cameras and they provided pretty good image, but never as good as non covert (obviously) depending on the local laws/process it may or may not be enough.

edit: the covert cameras also usually have a more limited angle/angle of view, and pointing at a dress would be better server with a non covert (think about installing them yourself/get the employees to help screw them up, and saying they are not real/just a cya measure b/c of thefts in neighborhood, and then 2 weeks or so later wire them up and get him

The person(s) you suspect it is, are they plain jane looking or do they have some sort of stand out characteristic ie, height, weight, hair color, visible tattoos take this into account when buying, color is always better, but if your tight for cash, and they are extremely unique, then it wont matter much.

Best advice i can give is Dont be cheap, and if possible catch them 100% (Close up face shot at tiem of crime) on camera, or get them twice.

I'd go for the camera sting or marked notes sprayed with that luminescent shit. The morning after cash goes missing, call a meeting, hit the lights and walk around with a UV light. Your culprit will be literally caught red handed (depending on the colour of luminescence, in fact, i'd intentionally buy the colour red just for the comedy and satisfaction value of being able to say "GOTYA RED HANDED BITCH!)
