Bacon Thieves
October 20th, 2008
A supermarket says it has been forced to take bacon off the shelves after a rash-er of thefts.
Shoppers at Londis in Burnley, Lancs, will now have to ask at the tills if they want to buy any bacon for their breakfast.
The move comes after thieves nicked ALL the bacon from the shop for two days in a row.
It is thought the soaring price (bacon has increased by 100 percent in the last 12 months) and the fact that it is easy to conceal, make it an ideal target for shoplifters.
The store has even put up a sign saying: “Due to the fact that our bacon is so delicious the shoplifters can’t resist it – If you would like to try some please ask at the tills.”
