A PHANTOM poster thief has been taking down advertisements for a sale as soon as they have gone up.
Minnows Pre-School in Chippenham has seen eight posters disappear over the past week advertising its table top sale on July 15.
As soon as we put them up, somebody has been taking them down, said Karen Buchanan, of the pre-school, which meets three times a week at St Catherine's Hall.
Six posters were put up on June 24 throughout the town, from Malmesbury Road to Pewsham.
At first we thought it was someone taking down one or two for a bit of a prank, said Mrs Buchanan.
By June 28 they had all disappeared though so I went round and put two more up.
These were in Avenue La Fleche and on the roundabout opposite the Magistrates Court.
We put them up in the evening and by the following afternoon they were gone, added Mrs Buchanan.
The sale is at St Andrew's Church on July 15 from 9.30am to 1pm and will feature a mix of stalls. Anyone interested in having a stall can call the pre-school on (01249) 465432.
