This is a question Shoplifting

When 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?

Not a shop, Not technically theft.
A few years back, Ladbrokes online casino ran a bonus within which you simply had to deposit £100.00 and play it. They gave you £100.00 as a bonus and once you played that you could cash out.

Oh, and they had the option to automate blackjack to play in your particular style.

The Beauty of it all was that you were playing an exact mirror of the house way and were more or less guaranteed to come out even, or at worst a few quid down, so having played 100 goes at a quid a time, my account had the princly sum of around £103.00. This was what was fun about this though, you could then claim the bonus, take it to a table and without playing a stake remove the money from the table. It was then available for withdrawl.

I know this spread like wildfire and I personally managed to do it four times in total for roughly £390.00 profit in the space of an hour.

One chap I know who shall remain nameless, had numerous business accounts and utilised them all with this particular scheme to personally net around £4.5K in an evening.
