What is it with people who put away empty packets/jar etc..

[AliceMcK]

I really don’t get it, today I find a completely empty box of cereal in the cupboard, an empty jar of jam in the fridge and an empty box of smoothies in the fridge, as the box was closed I assumed it had smoothies in so I deliberately didn’t buy any when I went to the supermarket this morning 😤 Just throw the fucking empty things away!

Dose anyone else experience this?

Guilt. They don't want to be the one who is accused of eating the last xxx so they put the empty box back

I’m amazed they put them away. I live in a household where people just leave everything out on the tops! 😡

My ex used to do this with milk. I'd open the fridge, see a milk bottle so not buy any. Then find out said bottle was empty.
Apparently he used to put the empty bottle in the fridge so I knew there wasn't any milk

I tried asking nicely and eventually just lost my shit and made it dhs problem. I believe my exact words were which FUCKWIT has put an empty coffee jar back in the cupboard? Cue dh and his mate looking sheepish and a little startled. Well if you want some you can go to the supermarket and get it yourselves.

Similarly if he uses something up, puts the packet in the bin but doesnt write it on the shopping list then I also make that his problem to fix.

I leave them on the countertop to remind me I need them. The DH bins them and doesn't buy any more.

So then he has to pop to the shop.

My lot are just lazy buggers and don’t bother to tidy up after themselves (then complain when they can’t find anything!)

What's really odd is people who can put empty containers back in the fridge but leave unfinished ones on the counter.

They don’t out the empty ones back - they don’t even put them in the bin! It’s enough to drive you crazy!

Today, I REALLY wanted a bagel, so I went to the fridge, pulled out the bagels, put the bagels in the toaster, it popped up and when I went to grab the cream-cheese, YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CREAM CHEESE??? oops not cream cheese BOX, A BOX!
