Whats the oddest thing someone has stolen from you?

[comedycentral]

Reading this story about a door handle stolen from a cafe made me wonder what the oddest thing someone has stolen from you? I once had some of my homemade CDs stolen from me on a train. Why would you steal someone’s really obvious crappy homemade megamix with their felt-tip handwriting scrawl all over it? I hope it skipped for them on the good songs!

We were renovating a pub a few years ago and had bought a pizza with a bogof deal. We ate one and the other was in the beer fridge for the next day. We were broken into over night, they had no chance to take any stock or anything before my ridgebacks came hurtling in from the pool table area. When the police asked what was taken we told them they made it away with the free pizza.

Our door mat and a hanging basket. They struck early one morning and took everyone mat and basket in the street

Technically, it's impossible to steal Apple products - in law, it officially only counts as scrumping.

@ladymalfoy45 OH MY GOD. Thank you thank you thank you!!!! For about 20 years now I’ve been trying to recall a book that scared the absolute shit out of me as a small child. That’s it!!!!!!!!!!!!

A string of fairy lights.

I was fond of them, too.

Years ago someone stole my car hub caps. I had nice enamelled white ones and they left cracked plastic ones in place of them

When we were living in Australia our house had the letter box stolen! Would’ve involved a considerable amount of work considering this was mounted into the ground with beams. Goodness knows!

My parents once had the “Volvo” badge stolen from their car.

@DreamyCyanFinch Seeing the number of trainers outside front doors, I sometimes wonder why more don’t get stolen. In the 90s, some trainers were so valuable that they might be stolen from your feet.

At a car boot sale, a load of random crap from the '10p' box. It was so bizarre, this middle aged man helping himself to hair scrunchies and things. I didn't say anything - it was nearly Christmas and I was imagining he couldn't scrape a quid together and had children to stuff stockings for. Or perhaps he was just a kleptomaniac! V odd.

My ex-husband. Bet she regretted it. Will always be grateful to her.

Dust caps and a wing mirror glass from my old Corsa.
The TV Ariel from the top of my house.
Ex boyfriend came back to his semi rural cottage from a weekend away to discover someone had stolen his garden gate, front path and garden wall.

Someone broke in to my friend's car while we were in her flat drinking wine. They made off with a 56 inch flat screen smart TV. That we were taking to the dump as it was broken but the wine was calling louder

Was that in the 80s? Loads of people stole VW badges to make them into medallions like The Beastie Boys had.

Maybe they lived in a posh area and Volvos were all there were!

The wooden bird table I was given as a birthday present. Lasted less than a day.

My bar fridge when I was living in a student flat share. Came home from lectures to find that one of my flat mates had moved out and taken my fridge with her!

A blouse off the line. It was a brand name and was a very nice colour. We lived in a unit. It was drying in a locked garage however the lock was flimsy. I never thought someone would take something like that.

A vacuum cleaner

We had a house party in our flat. My toiletries bag was in the bathroom. Someone rooted through it and stole my vibrator

A partially eaten baked potato. I'd bought a baked potato with coleslaw from a stall outside, had eaten a bit, but didn't really like it. I put the package down on the bench next to me and finished my drink. When I went to pick it up (to put it in the bin) it had disappeared. I then saw the package in the basket of the lady sitting on the next bench! I hope she enjoyed it more than me.

STBXH (we have lived separately for 2 years) offered me a book to read which he thought I would like when he picked up one of the DC. It was my book and had the till receipt (mine) inside the pages.

My front door.

I was getting a new one installed. The installer left it in the front garden and I went to grab a pair of gloves so I could move it round the back and attach it to our "summer house", but by the time I got back it had gone.

The house opposite about 4 doors down stripped it, repainted it and hung it on their house. Absolute cheek.

My mum was a registrar and used to do weddings in stately homes as well as hotels. Some guests felt that they had paid for the privilege of removing items from the homes " as a memory of the day". During one wedding a huge metal key was stolen. It wasn't a decorative key, it was the thing that locked the flaming front door.

Why didn't they just report the iPad as stolen and forget about mentioning the dildo 😂

I had a thief dog who used to escape and came home with a whole chicken ( supermarket type, not a farmyard one) a baguette, a loaf of sliced bread amongst other things. No idea where she got them from.

Someone once broke into my car and grabbed my sports bag, took out and threw on the ground the new and expensive £70 dance shoes, and made off with the empty bag I'd paid about £3 for at a car boot sale.

Takes all sorts.
