Advantages: take heed of my warning.

Disadvantages: callous and cruel thieves took my mine and my childrens food money.

I wanted to send out a warning about an experience that happened to Me, in a charity shop in my home town of Weston-s-mare.
I went inside to have a look around,while looking along the clothes rails a women undone the zip of My handbag and helped Herself to My purse,unbeknown to Me at the time !!
I only found out it had gone when I went to pay for something.Immediately I panicked and started to look for it,obviously I didnt find it.
The shop assistant was very helpful,She said nobody had left the shop since I had come in.But still in the shop were two women in their twenties,who were together.
The shop assistant said I was welcome to use Her phone if I needed to ring anyone,at the time I had remembered I had last seen My purse when I had paid for My sons nursery half an hour before,so I telephoned the nursery but it wasnt there.By the time I had finished these two women had left the shop,and it dawned on Me that it had been them who had taken it.
They did very well that day out of Me,in My purse was all My credit cards,£120 cash and irreplaceable photos of My children.
Since that day eight months ago every charity shop in Weston has a sign up warning that several purse thefts have occured in Charity shops (so it seems I was not the only one) and to be on your guard.
I cannot believe that people could be so callous and cruel as to steal from someone in a charity shop of all places let alone steal off anyone at all.
So My point to all this is you may well get a few bargins in Charity shops yourself but so could thieves,beware.
