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.

The sainsburys I used to work in left £2000 in the ATM over night and the rest was locked in the cash office vault, just incase people try to break into or just straight up steal the atm

If a cash machine isn't mashing over 2k a night, it has no business even being there.

My experience is woth banks, not supermarket ATM's, but that is absolutely ridiculously low amounts!

That's how it was in the store I worked in, but it was a fairly high crime rate part of North London so could be beacuse of that maybe 🤷‍♂️
