Someone nicked my shopping!

This is probably why some people put their bags on the seat beside them (to keep an eye on it) as they do not trust their fellow passengers.

........ and has anyone else noticed people rocking up to food banks in brand new SUVs? Humph!

We have a gentleman who ‘rocks up ‘ to our food bank in a £200K Bentley.
What do you make of that dalrymple23 ?

They might be volunteers collecting the food from various supermarkets, or volunteers delivering food to those unable to get to the food bank.

I imagine it must have been someone desperate for whatever reason. I’ve had my mobile phone nicked and my purse in the past and can understand the motivation but a bag of food shopping, no. I even thought someone might have picked it up by mistake but that’s very unlikely.

So sorry about your shopping Maggierose.

I hope it was someone desperate.

Re "rocking up to food banks" in expensive vehicles..
Have you ever thought maybe they have suddenly lost their job and are hoping to quickly find another, found themselves sofa-surfing after a relationship break down or that the car was a work vehicle?

Let's not judge.

Where I go my shopping bags go.

That's despicable Maggierose! Did the bus have cctv in operation?

I thought you needed a referral to access a food bank.

In Scotland, you usually need a referral from an organization to access a local food bank. Some organizations that can refer you include:

Citizens Advice: May schedule an appointment to discuss your situation with an adviser who can check your eligibility and provide a voucher

Charity: May be able to refer you

School: May be able to refer you

Doctor: May be able to refer you

Local council: May refer people to food banks, so you can check your local council website for more details

Social worker: May be able to refer you

Local Job Centre: May be able to refer you

Just another remark, we have noticed an increase in shop lifting in our charity shop and I also know who one is, and they definitely ain’t poor !!!

Woah that’s bad although I d never leave my shopping anywhere except at my own feet (but you should be able to)
Sorry to hear this I was only commenting today about how many truly honest people there are around My grandkids have been awful at losing things on nights out but 99% have been returned, wallets/ expensive coats /and phones

Sorry to hear that Maggierose - I've often wondered how safe bags were there if you're not sitting beside them.

I no longer believe it's desperation though - just too many people who think they can just take what they want and do what they want.

That's awful. I'm sorry there are some low lifes out there.
