About a month ago we bought about ten tins of chocolates while they were on offer in one of the major supermarkets. Intended to put them aside to give to nursery staff, bin men etc. at Christmas.
I happened to go into the cupboard where they are stored yesterday and noticed that the seal on one of the tins of Roses was broken. I then opened the tin to discover only a handful of chocolates were left . As the DC are too young to open them (or even know what they are) I assumed it was DP who'd got a bit peckish. However, when I mentioned it to him he hadnt even realised the chocolates were there!
We're now having a debate as DP wants to return the chocs and complain/ask for a refund, but I dont think we stand a chance, especially as we have no receipt. Surely we wouldnt be believed?
If we dont do that, then he intends to eat the remainder. My worry if he does this is that we dont know where they've been and they could easily have been contaminated - I'd much rather they were binned.
Just wondered what you'd do (if anything) and also whether anyone has a feasible explanation for why they were opened and nearly empty? I know it's all very trivial, but I'm intrigued! I genuinely dont think DP has eaten them.
(Before anyone asks, I picked up three or four tins at a time so didnt notice the weight of the near empty one).
