These boots are made for stealin'

This was a fun news story...

A worker at Australia's mint stole $100,000 over a 10 month period by smuggling coins out in his boots.

The judge criticised security at the Royal Australian Mint, in Canberra, saying it was "extraordinary" a worker could walk out with 300 coins in his boots. The mint has since upgraded its systems.
