Is this a crime?

[Tim Over Whelmed]

I'm actually a manager at a charity shop and it is legal. However, you're basically taking money away from good causes and putting it into your own pocket. So if you do that, speaking from a charity workers POV, you're a dick. No offence

Love that "You're a dick. No offence" very funny and right, of course!

Is it legal to take a pint of milk off of a doorstep or a newspaper from a pile left outside the newsagent's shop before it's opened? On the other hand, is it legal to fly-tip a load of old stuff outside a charity shop?

Whenever I pass a charity shop and see someone going through the donations left outside I give the thieving b@stards the evil eye. :

That'll teach them!!

Nothing wrong with it at all.



I'd never have any new clothes if they made it illegal.

Quite. That's the other side of the coin, people just dumping old shit they don't want. If they cared that much about the charity, they'd wait until the shop was open and donate the stuff properly rather than just leave it in the street to be looted by chavs.

Not gonna lie there's been many a drunken night out where I've stumbled home in the early hours and I've "helped" myself to a free newspaper! Nicking from charities though is horrible, it's embarrassing to think people actually do that!!
