Back in the day when you had to pay for games, I really wanted Wing Commander III but it cost a whopping £39.99 which was far more than I could afford with my few savings. Solution: I designed a voucher for PC World giving £25 off the price of the game, and printed it off on an inkjet. I went to the shop, handed the game and the fake voucher to the cashier, who looked at it with obvious suspicion and told me "I'm going to get the manager". At this point I was on the edge of running out of the door, but I held my nerve and tried to look nonchalant. The manager came over and luckily for me her mind seemed to be on other things as she just glanced at the voucher, said "yeah that's fine" and walked off. So I paid £14.99, took the game and walked past the security guard out of the store, then sprinted for the next mile in case someone discovered my fraud. But every time I played the game I felt a little bit dirty. Until a few months later I saw the game in the bargain bin for £4.99
