Boy, 5, blew £60,000 at shops A five-year-old boy went on a £60,000 shopping spree after finding a fortune in cash in his dad's safe. The boy took a gang of friends to a shopping mall and blew the lot on clothes, toys, bicycles, sweets, computers and games. His father Slobodan Markovic, a Serbian businessman, kept the money in a safe at home, only realised what had happened when his son and his friends came home with dozens of shopping bags.
