AIBU?

A full bottle of whiskey and a full bottle of vodka have been left in my front garden by the booze fairies.

AIBU to claim them before the neighbours think I have issues?

What is the etiquette here?

Weeeeelllll, if the booze fairy wants you to have them.... It would be rude not to!! Wink

I would be making sure they fed haven't been opened tho!!

Fuck the etiquette. Check they haven't been tampered with and have a party.

I'm slightly worried about drunken teens knocking my door late at night to reclaim them.

They are barely visible from the pavement unless you look over a low wall.

... let's see how long it takes for them to disappear.

I'd bin them, who knows wtf they are and even if they've not been tampered with you don't know where they came from- counterfeit booze can be poisonous

Probably hidden from someone who'd already had too much. Sad I feel sorry for whoever had to do that. I'd leave it.

sure they weren't used to just piss in.

I agree with not drinking them..you can't be sure what it really is or whether it's sage to drink.

Leave it, or bin it.

I wouldn't trust anyone who gives away vodka.

Check the seal....sniff it too before consuming!

Claim them, check they are still sealed if so open and enjoy!

If the seals are still intact then add a mixer of your choice and enjoy!

Probably an adult version of an Easter Egg hunt.

Have you seen any slightly tipsy bunnies lately.

Shoplifted I reckons, probably just a temporary place to hide them.

Id bring them indoors and replace them with something else in a bottle.
Some shampoo and conditioner, or mineral water and soy sauce...

Keep a watch out. See if anyone looks confused...

I agree with them being shop lifted. Someone will be back to collect I reckon.
