Cheating cheaty cheatsI'm rubbish at cheating. I was asked to help run a stall at a local fair. We sold squares on a treasure map for 10p a go, with the one closest to the "hidden treasure" winning stuff.
I told my sister where it was. I'd not really thought through how obvious this would be. I've kind of avoided cheating since, what have you cheated at? Confess all, it'll make you feel better.

Not quite cheating grades, but cheating stupid school children of their money...Y7 Food Technology, and we're all going to be making buns - the school supplied the flour, eggs, sugar, etc, all we had to do were bring in the decorations - icing, jellies, etc - me being smart, I got hold of a small carton of about 100 silver sugar balls, and thought I could sell the ones I didn't use.
Turns out demand outweighed supplies that day, I sold all the spare balls - no-one apart from me had brought any decorations - so not only did I make some lovely buns, I'd made 10p per silver ball, walking out of school with about £9 profit (a lot for a 11 year old), having only paid 50p for the silver balls in the first place.
Even Richard Branson couldn't do that.
