Maybe she was going to deposit the money in the morning, when the banks open.

Yeah, it was the victims fault! I think Simper answered the question as why she had money in her bag. The f.....g thief would have taken anything from her bag, even if it was only one baht!

That'll be right......................the little old lady in the convenience store had taken 60,000 Baht on Monday, and was just waiting for the banks to open on Tuesday!!!

60,000 baht ?? i think the old lasy is selling more than groceries, I wouldn't be surprised if she was dealing in drugs

That is some scary store.... Even a cat would get lost in there....

Things of value I can identify from the pictures:

- Lighters 12 Baht

- Straws: free

- M150: 10-15 THB.

- Lao Khao....

60K THB and she leaves the bag on the counter with a customer wearing a woolen hat...... Yea... Sure... Makes perfect sense..

You missed the B20 bottle of fish sauce on the counter...she surely sells at least 40-50k worth of that a day

Probably had a bad nite at the gambling den and needed an excuse for hubby for the missing money!

Ok, Ok, you guys are right, she is a drug dealer, or maybe a mafia boss, who knows. I guess my reading ability is bad, because I just cannot see where it says that she left her bag on the counter! The bag was left somewhere, but it dosent say where. Amazing how in just a few replies, the story can get turned around. No one really knows how long it took her to make that 60k, no one except all the good posters in TV.
