what are friends for anyways???!!?!??!! - kevinF - 07-03-2006
ok well i had my birthday party/graduation party on saturday and it turns out that someone stole 200 in money, checks, and gift cards.....
what kinda low life would do this??
it just doesnt make sense to me that one of my friends or neighbors would do this. its pretty sad that someone steal from a birthday party.
anyways some of you may not care but just felt like sharing to let of some esteem.
life lesson, when giving someone a gift with money write a check, and if your hosting the party hide the gifts were no one willl find it.
I just hope LH will void the stolen gift card and give me a new one for little or no extra cost......I called and talked to them today and they said that they keep a copy of the gift certifacite for one day and then throw them out.:mad:
what the hells the point of making a copy then?im not bashing LH I love that store and know a few guys in there that im kool with. so hopefully scott will work it out with me.

Wow...That really sucks.
My mom (the dispatcher for the Joliet po po) said you can call the police because this is a criminal matter.

yeah it may be but i dont know exactly who it is......im pretty sure but I have no evidence that it was the person i think it is.
I dont know if I want to involve the po po's into this
what are friends for anyways???!!?!??!! - Ponch - 07-03-2006
I would. It's a serious crime.
what are friends for anyways???!!?!??!! - kevinF - 07-03-2006
I dont know who it was though.......
but w/e it sucks
just hopefully LH will understand
what are friends for anyways???!!?!??!! - Ponch - 07-03-2006
That's the thing though- you get the cops w/ you, go around to everybodys house, if you show up with the cops w/ you, they'll most likely be nervous, crack, and confess.

I dont know.....its a good idea, but i think im going to forget about it since its only $50 cash and $50 in gift card to LH which they will never use......so basically im only down $100
then if LH is reasonable then im only down $50 and then its no point in involving the cops

what are friends for anyways???!!?!??!! - kevinF - 07-03-2006

Which one is it? In one post you say it was $200, in another, it is $50...
Either way, you should report it.
It sucks that someone would do something like this. Good luck with LH.

I think it was $50 in gift cards, $50 in cash and $100 check or something
what are friends for anyways???!!?!??!! - thenewguy821 - 07-04-2006
OK, at least the check can be cancelled, as long as you know who it was from.
what are friends for anyways???!!?!??!! - kevinF - 07-04-2006
yeah the check im not worried about......it was from my grandma.
then my aunt gave me $30 in cash.......then i got $20 from my friend in cash.
then i got a gift certifacite to LH for $50, I talked to scott and he siad he doesnt think there is anything he can do about it, but said he will look into it and see what he can do.
im guessing the person that did it just threw away the gift certificate.....but I dont know.
were pretty sure who did it but cant go over and accuse them and start problems.......theyre crazy people and would never admit to stealing the cards if they did.

You can do what school teachers are required to do when something of there's gets taken; They CAN'T go around and be like "Did you take it!!?!?!??!" But what you can do is ask people if they saw somebody acting suspicious or actually doing it...Try that.
what are friends for anyways???!!?!??!! - kevinF - 07-04-2006
thats what im doing but my mom wont let me ask who I think it is......
what are friends for anyways???!!?!??!! - kevinF - 07-04-2006
also the problem is the people we think it is the kids have done this before and we caught em.....but now it looks like the parents are into this too...
what a bunch of a$$ holes
what are friends for anyways???!!?!??!! - Sh1nn3r - 07-05-2006
Sorry to hear that bro.
what are friends for anyways???!!?!??!! - kevinF - 07-05-2006
thanks sh1nn3r,.................the good thing is I have GREAT parents and they are going to pay me for everything that was stolen..I told them thats ok they dont have to do that it's not their fault.
but they just said no well pay you cause its kinda shitty that this would happen at a birthday party.
so im glad i got WONDERFUL parents

You can only hope something equally unfortunate will happen to the guilty party. Karma, you know.
what are friends for anyways???!!?!??!! - kevinF - 07-05-2006
yeah.................well next year if i do invite them Im going to follow them like a hunt dog looking for drugs........lol sounds kinda weird

Hey, setup a video camera on all the gifts and cards! Then you can go back and see anything suspicious..
Hey woah I just had an idea. Have a little like "After the 4th" party, leave say $20 laying out somewhere in the open, visable to all. Get a camera and watch the money grow legs!
