    LIke last summers' riots when people looted to upgrade from Adidas to Nike? I am sure they all had the full support of our brothers in Syria.

    So seriously - I agree with your point. But the breaking point should come alot further down the line. Like unable to vote or eat.

        In Tesco I put "own bags used == 2" when I only used one bag. This gets me an extra (green) Clubcard point.

          That is a disgrace! You should be prosecuted! I would never do anything like that! You are immoral and cannot be trusted!

              Thin end of the wedge.

              1 clubcard point = 1p. (Or up to 4p if you redeem against deals).

              So it's OK to steal 1p?

              What about 2p?

              5p?

              10p?

              £1?

              £10?

              £42,345,791.63?

              Shocking behaviour.

                I accidently stole something the other week and the staff was complicit

                I got a "unexpected item in bagging area" error and called over the staff member who cleared it for me.
                Only after she had gone did I realise that the bag of celery sticks I'd dropped in last hadn't actually scanned

                  If you do get caught then you can just use the 'Madeley Defence' in court.
