ShopliftingWhen I was young and impressionable and on holiday in France, I followed some friends into a sweet shop and we each stole something. I was so mortified by this, I returned them.
My lack of French hampered this somewhat - they had no idea why the small English boy wanted to add some chews to the open box, and saw it as an attempt by a nasty foreigner oik to contaminate their stock. Not my best day.
What have you lifted?

Good wine in cheap bottlesIf you like a good wine:
1) Go to supermarket and buy two bottles. A very very good one, and the cheapest one of the same colour.
2) Drink the lovely Bordeaux / Burgundy etc. Keep cork.
3) Open the cheap wine and decant into expensive bottle
4) Return bottle to shop saying confidently "It's corked" and ask for a refund.
You can't do it too often, but its good for a treat.
