Love it. The more of these slimy people who are caught, the better.

Just showed this to DH. After his disgust with the person keying, he made the same comment as I did - he didn’t know you had Homesense in Britain. Also, your papers give a lot more private information than we do here. Don’t know why where the victim worked or his age had anything do with the story.

...also usually, ..in fact almost always the papers reveal the price of the perpetrators'... home.. ( that annoys juts about every reader).. what does it matter how much anyone's house is worth .. ?...

Why would you not think we had Homesense here .. just wondering..

I don't get it. What did she exactly do? What does "keying" mean? It must be a British expression but I'm only guessing. In Canada keying would mean putting a key in the ignition to start it. Nothing wrong with that if you don't have a "keyless' start.

keyring is a metal ring that you hang your keys on..

''Keying''' means using a sharp object (usually a key) to scratch the paintwork of a car
..watch the video.. the woman returns to her car..irritated that the Tesla is parked next to her because she'd deliberately parked right over the whiteline so no-one would park next to her , and as she put her stuff in the car, she slyly slides her keys all the way down the paintwork of the Tesla.. then drives away . if it wasn't for the camera (one oof 4 ) on the Tesla she would never have been caught.. it captured it all including her car registration number

"Keying" means using a key to scratch the paint on another car. Same term in the U.S.

Despicable!
Almost as outrageous is the price of over $1000 to cover a four inch scratch.

 

[Devi]

What's weird is that she's the one who parked too close to/on top of the dividing line between the parking spots.

What a nasty piece of work!

It happened to me once but no Tesla. Some people are rotten.

actually I was surprised that's all it was going to cost, because when someone keyed my car ( and it ain't no 50k model).. 4 years ago, it cost £750 for a 7inch skinny scratch (like a sharp pen-knife would make) to have repainted

It happened to me too, when I had to park in an outdoor apartment lot while I was staying with a girlfriend before my last trip to Oz. Most of the cars were old .. I think someone was envious seeing a new car in the lot.

I thought it was a big US chain. We have them in Canada too. Seems it’s a big global chain.

and as she put her stuff in the car, she slyly slides her keys all the way down the paintwork

She’s very adept at that, perhaps from practice on other cars.

She seems to be carrying a work access code card. Wonder if her employer is disgusted with her.

You might be surprised to learn that Homesense is a Canadian store... about 6 or 7 years after it opened in Canada, it opened many stores in Europe.. and only recently have they opened stores in the USA ...

Surprised is an understatement.

Just got this from their website @Jules ....for the UK...


In case you hadn’t heard, we’re the home styling sister of TK Maxx. Yes, they have a home section of ‎their own, but we know you homelovers are after even more big brand homeware to satisfy that ‎constant need to switch up your space. From one little store in Poole over 10 years ago, there’s now ‎‎78 nationwide (yes, really!) so we’re sure there’s a green glow and the promise of savings up to 60% ‎every day in a town near you.

Hmmm...if she's made to pay for fixing it, that may be punishment enough. LOL Seriously, I just don't understand why people do these things! By now everyone should realize there are cameras everywhere so they are likely to be caught on camera. Now she's been publicly shamed.
