"Consumables" on a Hollywood set is pretty much anything that doesn't take batteries or have a serial number. You will buy Sharpies, you will by gaff tape, you will buy red vines and they will go away. But you can also expect the label maker, tape measures, etc to wander off, too. Bluetooth speakers cross the line, as do power tools, but there's a certain level of "it's here, we're underappreciated, it's ours."

When I worked at PlayNetwork, if you knew the IT department you could walk out with every song we had. I think it was on the order of 10TB of MP3s.
