UV Thief Detection Powder?

beehummingbird

Not sure if this is the right place to post, but here goes anyway.

Someone in my family is definately stealing money from me, but I don't know who it is. I want to buy some uv thief detection powder to put on all my notes, so that I can catch whoever is doing it.

Ive seen it for about £15, but I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get it a bit cheaper. I am quite low on money at the moment, so this would be very helpful.

I already have a UV light in my house, so I dont need one of those, just the powder.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I think the OP meant the powder that goes on the money or valuables, then the powder sticks to the thief's hands which then shows up under UV light.

It does have to be checked within 24 hrs though, according to guy from my security dept at work ( my desk has been broken into a few times just for petty things like pencils, he was thinking of doing this)

Because it's a small market they can charge what they like, £15 doesn't seem much to catch out someone who is stealing money from you anyway.

Would work I believe. about £7 all in. Just discovered that they charge £4 shipping which is ... obscene really but they offer pickup from their birmingham office.
Amazing what adding the concept of security does to prices.
