Strangest thing you've had stolen from you?

Friend ran a pub. One day someone opened the toilet cistern and stole the cleaning tablet inside.
curtains from a GP surgery.

A brand new set of three knickers from the washing machine at Uni. I was incensed as they were from M&S and nice bright colours, was kicking myself for leaving the packet in the laundry room bin, someone must have spotted it and nicked them.

Not me, but... a guy we knew was in the pub with a small cheap rucksack filled with lion poo, his dad had collected it from the safari park to see if it would deter pooing foxes. It was nicked. It reeked through 3 bag layers, hence why it had been put in the corner, we had no idea how someone stole it without realising it stank.

Regarding hub caps, when it's just one it probably fell off, try driving back along your route.

Someone stole the tow bar off the back of my ex's car ... we only noticed when I went to put the dog lead over it while I changed my shoes.

my friend had a large punnet of strawberries on the front seat of her car.
Went into a shop, came out, side window smashed and punnet stolen

Someone stole the glass plate that sits in the microwave when I was at uni.

highly inconvenient 😂

A miniature bible. I bought it from a gift shop when we were on a camping holiday, I must have been about 12yo. It was about 1 inch wide by 1.5 inch long, completely unreadable. I just thought it was cute.

A girl I’d been playing with who was staying in a tent near by also took a shine to it. One day we returned to our tent and found it was gone as was some of my brothers stuff she’d liked too. The girl was also gone; her family had packed and left while we were out for the day.

Someone once stole a pair of prescription glasses from my car. They were the most basic pair of frames as I was a student and obviously the lens were only of use to someone with the same prescription as me (unlikely). They also took some old newspapers that were on the back seat (I was collecting them for some reason that I can’t remember now). Losing the glasses was a huge hassle as I couldn’t drive without them and it took 2 weeks to get another pair. We also had someone sneak into the house via an unlocked door and take the last piece of a chocolate cake and leave a Mac book that was next to it.

A monkey once stole my shampoo.

The chicken out of my chicken curry and rice that was in the fridge in work. Somebody took the lid off, ate all the chicken and just left it on the side lid still off and chickenless.

Had my knickers stollen off the washing line once. Pretty grotesque but funny.

I'd have let you keep them 😂

We were moving house a few years ago and we had a wooden Wendy house in the garden that we sold on Facebook marketplace. It was like the sort with a porch and two levels inside with an internal ladder to the top floor. It needed to be dismantled.

A couple paid for it and then over the course of the weekend worked on disassembling it and loading into their trailer and making several runs to take it to their house. We were all moved out and mostly just coming back to clean and clear out any rubbish in the house, so we pretty much just left them to get on with it.

We came back and they had left, leaving some of the playhouse bits behind, but they had stolen our hosepipe and the holder. The holder thing wasn’t even like a nice one, just a basic metal spool attached to the side of the house. They had obviously gotten tools out and unbolted the whole bloody thing from the side of the house along with the garden hose and taken it with them. 😂

It was our landlords and they never noticed it was missing, so we didn’t actually even care. But what a weird thing to nick! Also why pay £200 for something, not even take all of it with you, but steal a hosepipe and a rusty old hosepipe holder that must have taken some effort to actually detach from the side of the house?

Do you live down my street. It wasn't me 🤣🤣

My dog poo bin. Luckily it was almost full when it was nicked so karma was pretty immediate I imagine 😂

2 pots from our front garden, not even with particularly nice plants in, weighed a lot too.

I have a holiday let & amongst the many random things that holiday makers steal I lose a bathroom bin at least once a season. They cost a couple of quid from Home Bargains but for some reason they’re seen as the best contraband in Cornwall.

I cannot imagine the mentality of people who are prepared to spend thousands on a holiday & then steal a bathroom bin. I can only assume it’s the “we’ve paid for it, we need to get our money’s worth” attitude.

I didn’t think this thread would be so funny 😂

I had my all-in-one play suit stolen from my hotel room in Egypt years ago. Just a plain blue cheap primark-type holiday item, nothing fancy.
Our cleaner was male.
He didn’t steal anything else, just that one piece of clothing.

It wasn't stolen from me but someone im assuming drunk took some plants in pots from someone down the street and placed them on my front, it was really awkward as I didn't know where they came from so left them and the owner rightfully came and took them back I just hope they didn't think I'd stole them.

Someone (police stated probs druggie) broke into my car and took a couple of furry toys off the dash and my favourite CD. I loved that CD. Bob Marley - Legend. Perfect summertime car music. 😕 I'd rather they'd have taken the whole car tbh, it was an old banger.

My Rage Against the Machine tshirt. Was really annoyed about that, it was my favourite thing to wear at the time.

My jeans from my locker at work (NHS). Awkward as we weren’t supposed to travel in uniform.

About 20 years ago, when I was a poor student, I splashed out on a big patterned umbrella from Accessorize. Someone bloody pinched it out of my shopping trolley at Morrisons, I'm still bitter all these years later!

A previous tenant in a house share I lived in years ago came round to collect the remainder of her stuff and stole my punnet of nectarines!
