I break into your house and steal something from the top of your fridge - what do I take away with me?

If you broken into mine, you'd get a red plastic box filled with napkins, a jug and a pot with pens in!

Dh's alcohol free beer. Or a 4l hub of wholemeal flour. Better luck next time.

Laxatives! 🤣

2 cardboard castles and a fly zapper

VirginiaWolverine · 21/10/2020 22:36

Our medicine box, an ear thermometer and a box of cotton buds.

Shit loads of dust

SE13Mummy · 21/10/2020 22:37

The ceiling. Our fridge is built in to a unit which goes all the way up to the ceiling.

You’re in luck, it’s where the drinks are... so you’ve got an array of spirits and a few different varieties of squash.

@Figmentofimagination

The stool we use for DS to reach the sink and for me to reach high shelves.

But then how does he reach anything, if his stool is out of reach on top of the fridge?

I'm so glad I'm not the only one with stuff on top of the fridge. Mine usually has the perfect prep machine I'm trying to sell, the Google home hub thingy, and a cat.

The box with bbq utensils, skewers and other stiff that we don't need often

MegaClutterSlut · 21/10/2020 22:38

A box of art supplies, a cool bag and a couple of jugs Blush

Woui · 21/10/2020 22:39

Nothing. No access to the top (inside a cupboard).

MajesticWhine · 21/10/2020 22:39

You will have several boxes of teabags - both English breakfast and peppermint, which I seem to have a habit of bulk buying.

NewlyGranny · 21/10/2020 22:39

My worktop! We have wide built-under fridge drawers and I love them to pieces. Please don't take my worktop unless you take it all so I can have the oak worktops I want.

itssquidstella · 21/10/2020 22:41

Some fizzy water or a carrier bag.

Cocopogo · 21/10/2020 22:41

Two packed lunch bags, with the various Tupperware, drinks bottles in them ready to be used again after half term.
And Google Home, she sits up there listening to every little argument. Any day now the police are going to come knocking..

Heartofglass12345 · 21/10/2020 22:43

A box of lego, kinetic sand, a remote control car, an iron, some painted pebbles lol

MustDust · 21/10/2020 22:44

The plate for the Christmas turkey.

ZigZaggyZoo · 21/10/2020 22:46

The egg container thing (empty, I'm afraid)

safariboot · 21/10/2020 22:46

Nothing taller than an inch, it's an under counter fridge!

Salamander91 · 21/10/2020 22:47

Juice, water, paper towels, cider and I'm sure lots of other random things. The top of our fridge is a mess Blush

MJMG2015 · 21/10/2020 22:48

You'd leave pissed off - the only thing there is fresh air!!

I can't stand things on top of the fridge. I help myself stuck to this by having a tall frudge I would need a step stool to put anything on top of & an undercounter one 🤣

....but I know where to go for some Lemon Drizzle though. 🤣

SospanFrangipan · 21/10/2020 22:48

A cat in a shoebox. She's weirder than your normal cat, and practically lives up there

Bubbletrouble43 · 21/10/2020 22:48

Large tupoerware tub of crayons and pritt sticks and other craft related items I keep away from little hands unless supervised 🤣

TooExtraImmatureCheddar · 21/10/2020 22:49

The slow cooker and all the roasting tins.

AGnu · 21/10/2020 22:49

Ours is an under-the-counter one & the only thing on said counter is the food bin. You can have it if you want, it needs emptying anyway!
