I've got quite a few I've thought up over time, just don't have the moral character to go through with them.

[1] Take a donations jar to a public place (I was going to pose as an organization that was helping victims of Katrina) and pocket the donations.

[2] For those of you who know Papa John's, they offer a fund raiser for organizations where you sell pizza coupon books. They normally sell for $10 a piece but you can set your own price. Each book comes with coupons, a lot of buy 1 get 1 frees, and 1 free large 1 topping pizza. Which is a pretty good deal if you sell them for $5. Papa John's will advance you the coupons and you have to pay them back $1 for each one sold. You return what you don't sell. Sell zero, return all of them and owe no money. You can set your own price and profit = your price - $1.00. Just pose as an organization and ask the manager about their fund raisers.

[3] Anything you've bought from a major retailer (Walmart, Lowes, etc.) and don't use anymore just take it back for a refund. If its something thats not obvious (like batteries) tell them it was a gift, which is why you have no receipt, and ask them for store credit instead. Or say your boyfriend/girlfriend bought you this (half-used) bottle of ibuprofen, but you're allergic. Instant store credit.

I've never actually done any of these and do not condone you doing them either. Just thought I'd let you guys know about'em and what your thoughts were on them.

I agree:D

But really, that's just a day off, having fun around the house! I always carry a 12 gauge, wear a ski mask, carry a bag (not a trash bag) one of those bags with the dollar signs on, and i leave my bike parked up and easily accessable!
