First reported on Accy Web
My daughter has just phoned, she was in Tesco's in Blackburn shopping, when someone snatched the takings from one of the tills, and made a getaway through one of the fire doors at the top end of the store.

Re: First reported on Accy Web
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. |

Im not defending the theifs but at least they didnt go in welding guns like they have been doing with the banks recently.
I think all supermarkets should have drop safes in them, all notes etc should be immediately dropped into them leaving only a minimum float at all times and this should be made common knowledge. When i worked at ASDA we used to "bank" wads of money from the till in front of customers, we could have thousands in our hands at one time, put it into a small cash bag and then into a crappy little slit safe under our till. It would have been so easy for a customer to get hold of us when we was doing it. |

No, seems like it was a combination of circumstances, cashier had till open, but was handing something over to the customer, whoever in next checkout que, saw the opportunity and took it..............a fist full of notes
