The first time the thieves got away with $300 and the second time they cleaned out the cash register at the business on Highway 24.

"The cash register was open. The change that was in the register was gone. This was all gone through. My freezer was gone through," said Leslie Boynton.

Boynton stopped leaving cash inside the business after that. Now, the shop has been burglarized a third time.
