The Surrey Live website reports that a Waitrose worker with a gambling addiction stole £63,000 worth of goods from the store where he worked – to sell on eBay.

Nick Tauwhare took items including boxes of toiletries, razors, chocolate and coffee, along with flat pack boxes, envelopes, stamps and bubble wrap for postage.

During a search of his home, police found goods believed to be worth over £25,000, as well as stacks of Waitrose trays which Tauwhare had used to carry them away.

Tauwhare later admitted that a further £37,680 worth of items had been sold via four separate eBay accounts he was running.
