Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

The really distressing thing is that the most shoplifted items are usually nappies and powdered baby milk.

Menstrual hygiene products, although taxed too highly for an b essential product, tend not to be stollen as much because people who need them are often also still be too ashamed of their need to accept that they're essential, and will resort to terrible options like folded up loo roll instead.

I fucking despair sometimes.

Sanitary products are free in a lot of toilets these days.

Razor blades was one of the biggest contenders hence they went behind covers or have security tags on them.

In our local BP garage/Spar shop they have put photos of offenders on their doors (and there are at least 10 photos) ... none of them are women.
