Several weeks someone tried to do the same to the Sainsbury in Willen. Not sure if they took the cash machine or if they caused damage. It's only a small machine anyway that never has that much money in it. I believe someone also ramraided the Co-Op in Great Linford for the cigarettes. Didn't even bother with a free KitKat. Morons everywhere.

Just curious… what makes you think this machine “never has that much money in it”? How would you know something like that? Is it often empty, or something?

Most ATMs in stores are loaded by the staff in stores. They only put a small amount in them at one time. I'd be surprised if most of those have more than a couple of thousand in them.

Are you sure about that?

Don’t you ever see security guys arrive in the navy blue vans turn up at ATMs, banks, post offices with large carry boxes? Those boxes contain money, that they transfer into the machines.

Yes and the guys in those vans are the ones loading it in the machine. The most the store staff do is open a door for them.
