Get a pick-axe into a shop (teleporting is a good method).
Next, go up next to the shopkeeper.  Dig into the floor,
and surround him with pits.  The shopkeeper will not step
onto a trap, so you can now just stand back and waste
him with wands or arrows.

If you try long enough to dig into a shop wall, you will succeed.

No, no, no....

This is too slowly, but if you have a Wand of Polymorph [and don't care
for Wishing wands!] use it to kill those happy-to-steal-your-money
shopkeepers and steal all his unrightful treasure. 

BTW..

If you kill a shopkeeper [in his normal shape] you'll lose some of your
capabilities [if achieved yet] some of your hard-earned luck and your
capability to actually sense other living beeings [maybe undeads!] on
the level even when you're blinded.....
