In the hope of being able to leave without paying the extra - or to get cash instead of a supermarket voucher, by any chance?
Vouchers cannot be used for age-restricted items, such as alcohol, cigarettes or lottery tickets., after all.

After becoming wise to grifty ways I wouldn't give a penny to someone I don't know personally now, although given that I'm on the bones of me a all the time no one's missing out anyway unless they covet my pot to piss in.
I really object to work asking me for some of my paltry pay too. How about your charity of the month is your workers some of whom are filling up on milky coffees and don't eat dinner towards payday.
While I'm on one big birthday bashes can duck off too. Have some bleepin consideration in this climate. I'd love bottomless brunch, drinks an a meal but I'd also love being able to get my asthma inhalers and to eat more than own brand beans on toast all month.
Re Guest's Sue Lee scam I reckon most donations would've come in straight after the announcement when the momentum is there and ppl give on immediate whim. She was all manic and made up with up with herself aswell tweeting that ppl were determined to make her a millionaire so that supports that view. I think she would've absolutely raked it in for a good few days.

is there a general thread about psychology of scammers, romance scammers, programmes about them etc. Just watched that Puppet Master thing on Netflix, I'm so fascinated how intelligent ppl get sucked it. Especially romance scams, victims usually successful professional women with lots of other relationship opportunities, not the stereotype of daft gullible emptyhead trying to get her dusty old crumpet buttered /
It’s good poors and bad poors, good poors eat vegetables, don’t watch Jeremy Kyle or sit begging on the street.
I just think the average person doesn't crowd fund because a normal person, who isn't a terminally online, highly narcissistic attention seeker wouldn't have the weird, parasocial following needed to make it worthwhile.
I'm reasonably well liked, I guess, in that I have a solid group of good friends, but if I suddenly crowdfunded for something, I can't imagine anyone would donate if I suddenly said I need money for my MOT. And why should they when I can get the bleeping bus to work until I've saved the money myself?
My friends, however, would lend me money at the drop of a hat, because they know they'll get it back, and they know I'd reciprocate.
There's a reason these people constantly on the beg don't have anyone in real life who'll lift a finger for them.

Guest still had the adoration of most of her followers when the Sue Lee thing blew up and she certainly wasn't under any kind of scrutiny either. Her flying monkeys were jumping on anyone who dared criticise St. Jack and the braver squigs and Molly hadn't raised their heads above the parapet on Twitter yet.
At that stage she could have told her stans that she wanted to go on a fact finding mission to Necker Island to research underlying poverty and they would have thrown money at her.
They trusted her and were invested in her.
God knows why, but some of them still are?
That's why I personally think she raised thousands.
I have a friend who occasionally asks me for a loan of cash... She rarely pays me back, and I don't ask for it, because I know she's skint.
I found out from a mutual friend that the skint one and her boyfriend basically sit down with a list of friends every night, and work their way through it, asking for money.

Yeah it’s nothing to do with Jack in particular that makes me think she might not have got as much as people think.
Just the combo of a PayPal combined with her saying repeatedly that it was for if her lawyer didn’t take it pro-bono or whatever term she misused to mean free. If I was reading that post, even if I was absolutely someone’s biggest fan and wanted them to beat the evil Tory and thought she’d been terribly libelled, I think I’d be like “Well I’ll wait and see, she’s got a great case so the lawyer probably will do it for free/claiming the costs from the other side.”
Should have used it instead of stewing steak to improve a Slop recipe!
I used to have a lovely gp who would always check the cost of prescriptions before writing them and would give me a private one of it was cheaper. My blue inhalers were £4.50 that way. I don't know if you could ask your gp if its something they do. I miss that doctor

Are those Healthy Start vouchers? They can only be used for fruit and veg products and milk.
Didn't Guset claim to have invented them once, even though they came in when she was a teenager?
She actually clarified that she increased their value by having a chat about The Pov to Henry Dimbleby.
She had a word with Leggy's mate/business partner?
And what did he do? Recount the story he heard over dinner from Leggy's temporary squeeze as part of a sternly worded recommendation?
Another theory i havr is that SB dad has got guest a job, putting premade sausage rrolls etc into and out of the oven( with high levels of supervision) incase she gets her fingers burned and washing up the trays in greggs. I have no basis for this theory and working i greggs is a good enougg job, but i know guest would be howling and clawing and insisting in replacing the sausage meat with spam and the pasty fillings with chunks of offal or some tit.
Sorry my lord, its only a jest because i bored this halloween morning.

Probably hoping some kind shopper in the queue would pay the balance for her
Yes and also the £50 voucher you can call up and claim when you’re on a prepay meter and running low.
Keeping it on topic - a quick look at Xitter and I can confirm that Aldi lady tweets even more than guest did in her heyday.
She should spend some of the moneygrifted raised on an assistant. Wonder if Caroline's got any spare time (on her hands).
She should spend some of the money
When grifter turns on grifter. Has the possibility of a future £73 been assessed as less valuable than the damage by association?
Yesterday’s guest.(ETA: I’ve muted breakfast telly so as not to hear guest’s mate Bragg go on with himself. Glanced up as the subs said ‘Thatcher’ but not ‘guest’. What a sad morning for the fetid smol. Good job she never sees a morning, really.)
Whose nose is that??
