In the city where I live there is a monthly local magazine produced for the public to peruse which is widely available in businesses, pubs, restaurants, cafés, hairdressers, GP surgeries etc etc. I suspect these businesses have to pay some sort of subscription, but the magazine clearly makes money from local advertisements in its pages as well. It basically covers things like local pub/restaurant reviews, places to shop, local property, recipes, local days out, what's on at the theatre etc etc.
Where I used to work we always had several copies floating around the staff room and I used to rip out (mainly) recipes when the magazines were on their way to the recycling bin.
Well now I don't work there but still enjoy browsing the mag when in pubs/cafés etc.....and I still like to rip out the odd recipe etc
My DH thinks I am being cheeky for doing this and now tuts and rolls his eyes whenever I rip things out like the entitled brazen hussy the stealthy ninja that I am.
although he will quite happily eat the products of my 'theft'!
I know I am not the only person to do this as I often see pages/sections missing and there are always several copies of the mag available at any one time.
So AIBU to do this? Anyone else out there a stealthy-ripper?? Or do you judge (with pearls-clutched!) anyone who does this??
(Ps, not to unduly influence you, but if you side with my DH he will be vilified and I will never hear the end of it!!)
