So I had one of those sort of Persian inspired area rugs. Not super valuable, but I did pay around $300 for it.
So yesterday, I take it outside to sort of shake it out and then let it sit in the sun for a bit (I flopped it on top of my car) (aside: I had steam cleaned my carpets including this one the day before and so it was a little damp).
Anyway, some fucker stole it! As I said, it was not super valuable, but damn it, it really pulled the room together!
