Lemon of the Week
Pat gives a lemon to a woman who took her purse from Post Net Southdale. “I hope she reads this and knows she stole a pensioner’s purse. On Saturday, April 16, I went to Post Net in Southdale Shopping Centre. After paying for a photo copy I thought I’d put my purse back in my bag but instead I left it on the counter. The owner of Post Net saw the purse but didn’t know who it belonged to so put it high up at the side of the counter. I went to another shop after Post Net and then realised I’d lost my purse. Thankfully it didn’t have any cards in, just notes and change. The woman was caught on CCTV camera at Post Net, so know you were seen!”
That’s it for this week. Shop till you drop!
