My wife and I live in an apartment (in one of the nicer parts of town) and she was doing laundry... Had two loads of towels in the dryers...

Someone stole all of the big bath towels, 3 from one load, 4 from the other.

I know many have worse problems... but this was really making me mad!

We are saving for a down payment for a house, guess we need to save faster.

 

Time to start spot-checking other people's loads when you are doing laundry. If they were taken from the laundry room, obviously the perp (been watching too much TV) lives there and uses the facilities. Keep checking until you find one of your towels in another load. Then nail them!!! (hopefully you have unique-looking towels...)

That is a large reason we look for washer/dryer in any apartments we'll rent. It is pathertic that things are that way. At least it was not your truck.

We decided to start checking...

I made a sign that says in huge letters "thanks for stealing our towels!!! We really appreciate it!!! Help yourself to anything else you want!!!

Partially to let others know to look out.

 

Not that this helps but I will share anyway.

My wife and I went to get out laundry out of the dryer one Sunday evening(1994) to find every thing, every bit of clothing we owned besides the ones on our backs, stolen out of the dryer. We were young and in love so sleeping short of PJ's was ok but still...I know very well the feelings you have for your fellow apartment dwellers...

I think a sign saying something along the lines of " WHOEVER STOLE OUR TOWELS:
Please be aware that I suffer from a contagious bacterial infection of the skin that I am on a lifelong medication regime for. PLEASE, go to your doctor immediatly and seek medical attention!
Good Luck!"

If nothing else it'll make them think........

 

Maybe HPV would be good to put on the sign.

A reason why I hate apts, I even hate renting. Neveragain, at least not without a fight. Sorry about man. If I found my towels in some else's laundry, I'd take their stuff out and pour my used oil all over their clothes! Or find someone with crabs and have them throw their shorts in their laundry!

Then go to the dumpster and get your towels back

 

Stencil your names on your towels ...

I understand how you feel because this past weekend someone decided that they needed my air compressor more then I did and came into our garage and took it while we were home.

 

Kinda hard to say "this towel is MINE" when it has someone elses name on it.

I just got to college and the second day I was here I got a saddle stolen out of my tack room.Ity was nice too...fully tooled custom made calf roping saddle.Oh well,I guess I will have to hold off on bombs and save for another good saddle.There is alot of sorry people out there.

 

I don't know. Seems like I've met a few people named "Holiday Inn". Strange what some people name their kids.
