I Was Robbed This Afternoon!!!!!!!!
Liz,
I'm so sorry. Those ****ers! (Sorry, no spoilers for them.) How awful to lose that much money. I know it's only "things", but money's what we live on, and you *needed* that. What horrible luck to be robbed just as you were carrying that. I agree about the voicemail messages, though. You should be able to retrieve those, at least. And I hope you get some of your other stuff back soon. Lots of people do. And I know what a pain it is to have to cancel all your cards and get new ones, but at least once you're done, you're done. For many years I wore a waist pack, which I kept positioned over my left hip so I could see it at all times. It became a part of my body when I was outside. I couldn't be purse-snatched unless they took me with it! Finally I decided that the waist pack was ruining my personal feng shui, so I switched to a shoulder bag. That would be easier to snatch than the waist pack, but since it goes over head and crosses my body (like MMJ was saying), it would still be harder to take than a purse I'd hold in my hand or over one shoulder. Just some ideas for when you get a replacement bag. I will be happy to help donate toward your vet bill! Victor, are you available to do paypal donations? Hugs and purrs for you, and the most foul of uncleaned litterbox offerings for the dirtbags. Joyce To email me, remove the triple-X from my user name. ^..^ |

Prayers and purrs PLEASE!!! that the vet will cut me some slack and let me have some more replacement meds and let me float on the kitty's bills..... Damn! I really HATE people sometimes!!!!!!!! Purrs and prayers on the way! That really sucks! I never put my bag in the shopping basket (as too many people do - even leaving them unattended while they shop two aisles away). I always use a shoulder bag, worn diagonally across my body (even had some with steel cable in the straps, when I traveled to Europe). I started wearing it diagonally after a friend of my mom's, walking down a street in her neighborhood, had her shoulder bag neatly lifted from her shoulder with a bent coat-hanger by a boy on a bicycle. If a thief is really determined, no amount of precautionary measures will prevent the theft, but I figure if I make it tricky enough for them, they'll choose another target. |

Any chance that someone knew you happened to be carrying a lot of cash and targeted you? I'd make sure to mention if you cashed a check somewhere or who might have been around when you got the money or had it out. The police I'm sure already wondered that. That is a pretty bold robbery if they didn't have reason to believe it would be worth their while. Purrs and prayers will be ongoing that you can de-stress. Also that the 'perps' get what they really and truly have coming to them. Jo |

That is horrible. I can't imagine how upset you must have been - what a scary thing to have happen! Purrs coming that you at least find your purse - be sure to check out dumpsters in the area (but be careful and bring someone with you to do it). Hugs, CatNipped |

I was thinking, if she had that much money, someone may have seen her cash
the check, there was a car waiting to pick the person up that stole the purse. Hope thee were cameras in the parking lot and maybe where she cased the check or, collected the money. Maybe someone can see a connection with propel. "Jo Firey" wrote in message ... ":-)Liz" wrote in message ... No more considerate me...I use to put up my basket after using it at Petsco...

Dang, this is awful! I'm so sorry! What a PITA to get everything back, not to mention that it's expensive. I hate to hear this crap. Purrs that you're able to get everything back (including the pills) without too much of a hitch. kili That IS indeed horrible. What the hell is wrong with people these days? PUUUURRS also, like kili said, for you to get everything back and damn that ******* who took your purse:/ Hug Kyla |

I Was Robbed This Afternoon!!!!!!!! (and PING VICTOR)
Daniel Mahoney wrote:
The borrowed money - maybe Victor can do up a collection to help replace it, as we have so many times in the past to help our fellow slaves pay for the care of their masters. It involves a PayPal account, and I would be willing to 'donate' a couple bucks... I'd be willing to ship in a few bucks too. Dan Count me in. Sam, supervised by Mistletoe |
