My dad used to do handyman type work including mowing yards, he had people help him from time to time and this one guy who was helping him borrowed one of my dads mowers and wouldn't return it. My dad went to the guys house one day, guy wasn't home but there were a few nice plants in buckets on the porch so my dad grabbed a couple and drove off!

Not the smartest move and I asked my dad never to tell anyone about this cause he told me like the day after he took them. Fortunately nothing bad came of it but it had me worried.
