Be careful in Supermarkets !!!

[BonysLad]

Any of you coming out be careful with your bags & wallets in the Supermarkets. Guy brushed against me at lunchtime in the Eroski ( the one mid way between PP and Pollenca , just off the main road and me wallet gone out of me pocket. According to the Police there is a gang operating there regularly ( and seems prevalent on Weds ) so just take care . Had about 140 Euros nicked plus credit cards and UK driving licence

Only upside is that I've had to cancel BLT's cards as a lot of em are joint.

Maybe quids in already

Just be careful with your valuables

Sorry about your unfortunate experience, Bonyslad. Thanks for warning us. I never associate things like that with PP. Just goes to show, doesn't it? It can happen anywhere.

Tony,

Just off to scavenge round the bins , until our new cards ( hopefully) arrive tomorrow .

Sorry to hear that.

I never take any chances anywhere and am always aware of anyone standing too close etc. When we were there I used a little cross body bag (sometimes shortening it, to put it round my waist). Mr M however is not so OCD as me and was happy to stick his wallet and driving licence in his back pocket until I stuck my oar in. He does this even though he's been stung before! With what he does for a career, this behaviour astounds me!
