Want more challenge? Use the word of the week in your story. This part is optional.
This week's word is GLISTEN here's the picture and my offering using both the picture and the word in 140 characters, including spaces and punctuation.
He’d robbed ‘Glisten’, the jewellery shop, thinking his getaway was good.
Then he was felled,
by a tin of beans in the lady’s shopping bag!

Great use of the word "glisten." I struggled with that this week, trying to fit the darn thing in. Nicely done!
Beans can certainly be heavy :-)
Nice one.
At first I read 'fuelled' instead of felled, and thought, he'd never stop now.
good for her knocking him out with the beans! lol

I went with a robbery of sorts as well, but yours was definitely more amusing!
A jewellery shop named "Glisten" is just perfect, but the can of beans is the icing glistening on the cake, as it were. LOL

Just a great take on the prompt...both clever and witty! Kudos to the bean-wielding granny...LOL.
Ah yes, the old can of beans to the head trick - gets 'em every time!
Glisten is the perfect name for a jewelry shop. The baseball teams will be recruiting that lady!
