    I've been reading the thread about the guy who won the TV license case and it has inspired me to start this thread.

    In what ways, doesn't matter how petty, do you out fox the forces of power and beat "the man"? In my college they charge for tomato sauce in the canteen so I put the sachets under my plate so they don't see them.

    Sounds a lot like stealing to me?

    I got my driving license in Japan, and got an automatic license only. It's cheaper and easier to get an automatic only, obviously.

    When we moved back to Ireland I got that license converted to an Irish license. The Irish license had a little note indicating that it was automatic only.

    When we moved back to Japan again I had to get the Irish license converted into a Japanese one. They didn't spot the little note indicating that it was automatic only, and converted it back into a full automatic and manual license.

    WIN!

    I've never paid for them so I'm not entirely sure, but I believe in the 10-20 cent (per sachet) region.

    I'll be deep in the cold, cold ground before I ever pay for a tomato ketchup sachet.

    In the canteen where I work , I shortchange people who steal ketchup sachets, they are in such a hurry to get away with the sachets, they never check their change.

    I was buying a few bits in Supervalu and it came to less than I was expecting. When I checked the receipt, the four back of beer I bought had scanned as a single can. Win!

    I pay for a one way train ticket on Sundays, the ticket office for my return journey isn't open on Sundays, there's no electronic way to purchase my ticket at said station, eat my **** Irish Rail ticket inspector.
    I owe the library about 20 odd euro for a few years, whenever I'm getting more books out they say, and would you like to clear your fine, ...no, and I walk out like a boss.
    At the self service desk in Dunnes I put my large loaf through as a small loaf. At least there's plausible deniability, it doesn't scan and there's over 20 different bread options. Saving 30 cent on a 70 euro shop is pathetic, but by god, it makes me a feel alive.
