Husband spoiled Easter bunny surprise

I bought an Easter egg for my DS weeks and weeks ago. Purposely bought it during a supermarket shop when he wasn’t with me. Saw a dinosaur themed one and had it in a Tesco carrier bag in the utility room on top of a cupboard. Was looking forward to doing a little hunt and the look on my sons face when he found it.

husband has taken it off the top off the cupboard to get to something and didn’t put it back up. DS just went into utility room and found it on the floor, spoiling the surprise.

AIBU to be gutted and pissed off

To be honest your son probably still had a look of surprise - you just weren’t there to see it.

It’s just an Easter egg. 🤷‍♀️

It was just an accident. Tell him to get a different surprise to replace it. Life is really too short.

It's just an Easter egg. I doubt your husband did anything maliciously. It's not like he's ruined Santa for the little lad.

It's an Easter egg. He'll get over it not being a suprise.
