This is not an urban myth, because my friend Fergus was working there at the time and witnessed it.

In the eighties in the Harrods sale, someone came in, set up a till, took a load of money from the customers and then just walked out with all the cash. It was only at the end of the day they realised what had happened when they saw an extra empty till. It's so manic in the sale at Harrods in the first few days, and with so many temps taken on to work there, it was the perfect wheeze.
