Through the self service as a white roll (to save on pennies)

Get a bloody move on OP!

I don't think they're are many offences that justify calling someone a 'fucking cunt' or 'scum' in my opinion

Just remember that when you have your house burgled or your car broken into.

I got told off at the checkout the other day for putting my 4 different types of rolls through as 4 lots of one - same prices too.

I asked the checkout lady what I should do as if I put them through individually the self scan machine gets upset that I either havent put them in the bagging area, or its expecting one and I put all 4 in.

She told me I should get individual bags for each type of roll Hmm

bigdog I agree that it is stealing but a. really you need to drop your shoulders a bit because all this angre will make you ill and b. I very much doubt the OP has even done this. So unclencha bit eh?

NearTheWindymill · 28/05/2014 11:09

"oh I haven't quite spent £15" holding up my car parking ticket. The lady on the checkout nearly always says, "oh no worries, you're a regular and my supervisor isn't looking". Is that theft too? £1.50 more than a few pennies.

BitOutOfPractice · 28/05/2014 11:10

NeartheWindmill - I suspect bigdog has just imploded with wrath at that.

I'm not directly aiming my comments at the OP merely at people who do steal. If the OP does steal then I'm afraid it's a case of 'If the cap fits.'

Oh and BTW I have no real anger just an extremely low opinion of thieves. I could make much harsher comments to be honest.

BitOutOfPractice · 28/05/2014 11:16

Harsher than theiving cunt scum? I'm intrigued!

ViviPru · 28/05/2014 11:19

I get my wages stolen each month, tax and council tax

Hmm

Stolen?

Jesus this thread is pitiful. ANY form of stealing is wrong and I'm amazed so few people seem to agree.

Oh yeah! I won't go there though - would probably get me banned!

CiderLover · 28/05/2014 11:26

Yes Vivi, anything taken without permission is stealing! I have never given my permission for tax to be deducted.

Oh get a life Cider and go and do something useful instead of stealing pennies from a supermarket.

Dropdeadfred2 · 28/05/2014 11:57

surely by working and living in this country you agree to living by the rules eg paying tax and c/tax?

wowfudge · 28/05/2014 11:59

When you signed your employment contract, did you not sign and agree to the company paying your wages less the deduction of tax and NI.

Stop feeding it - this is pitiful.

Sallyingforth · 28/05/2014 12:06

I have never given my permission for tax to be deducted.

Have you been given permission to take healthcare? schooling? defence?

StealthPolarBear · 28/05/2014 12:11

Agree with vivi

When I get home and my croissants are missing OP you're for it

grocklebox · 28/05/2014 12:21

I cant believe that people get so fucking worked up about Tesco losing a few pennies.
You realise they are helping to bring back modern day slavery and about 1£ in every 8 spent goes into their enormous pockets? And if its not Tesco, no doubt its some corporate temple of whoredom that equally deserve it.

Chill out, you sanctimonious pearl clutchers. Its an inch of crappy fluffy slightly flavoured dough. Who could possibly summon up a flying fuck?

Jesus this thread is pitiful. ANY form of stealing is wrong and I'm amazed so few people seem to agree.

I think most people assume the OP is on a wind up. Not a very good one though.

StealthPolarBear · 28/05/2014 12:27

Clearly not. Some people see it as vebgeance on tesco. I get the tesco hate. But it's a pitiful excuse for theft.

Hissy · 28/05/2014 12:31

Yes Vivi, anything taken without permission is stealing! I have never given my permission for tax to be deducted.

Yes love, but the supermarket hasn't given you permission to remove goods from their store without paying the price they're asking.

By entering in the supermarket, and selecting their goods, you're agreeing to pay the stated price for them.

By living and working in this country you're subject to tax law.

To evade those laws, you're foul of them.
Income tax and Council Tax pays for services YOU require.

Right down to the police officer that'd come and arrest you if you were caught stealing.

ITT - hilarious demonstrations against 'the man'

You show 'em OP, your flaky pastry treat will leave no room for error about the fact you resent paying for your rubbish to be picked up and a dr to wipe your snotty nose.

Ironically if a bored security guard had picked up on your sticky fingered tendencies and called the popo on your poor peasant ass, you'd have been getting your monies worth out of your council tax this year.
