    Oh it must just be me then, but I find men who forcefully vent far more attractive than those who submissively accept!

    I understand the spirit of the original post.
    The word "stolen" was used in a non-literal sense. Like calling a charge "daylight robbery".

    Oooh Tomstickland, you are in trouble now! You will have to fully explain how, what, where, whom, and why you compared it to theft during the hours between dawn and dusk! The Trolls will chase you now, there is NO escape! ;)

    Oh, I think there was sufficient exaggeration with a dash of humour, for most, Bamber!

    What about those who do neither but get better results every time?

    Oh, I agree, but I also find that men who carp over a few pence not at all attractive. Tight fisted men who get up the energy to go and whine on an internet forum about being gypped out of less than ten pence (but can't find the energy to take up the constructive advice proffered in order to effect change) do not rate high on my list of attractive men.

    Don't get me wrong; I'm not a gold digger by any means, but if my OH had exhibited this sort of behaviour over such a paltry sum, I doubt I'd have given him a second glance.
