Someone has posted a tiny bag of white powder through our letterbox!

[UmmWTF]

Me and DH are freaking out a bit. At about 10pm we heard the letterbox go while we were watching TV but didn't immediately check it. We've just got up to head to bed and it's a tiny little ziplock bag (like 50p sized tiny) with white lumpy powder in it

We're going to have to call 111 in the morning arent we? Really freaked and going to struggle to sleep now!

What the actual fuck

Dealer got the wrong address!

If you had it and were off your head and getting sick you’d call 111, then get arrested

If your neighbours seem to stay up late having kitchen discos alot.... now you know how they do it.

I very much doubt anyone would ask for it back, but if they do just give it to them.

Why ring 111? Just bin it and move on

Ha! Ha! You lucky thing, OP.

haven't read all the post but really! ... just ring the police.

Just bin it and forget about it xxx

I certainly wouldn't contact the police. I wouldn't trust them at all.
Just put it away safely and forget about it. Ifanyone comes knocking and asks for it, just hand it over.

If you can’t be arsed to read the whole thread, at least read the OP’s posts. She rang the police, and they came and collected the drugs.

Placemarking to see if any more show up.

Very middle-class. Not the usual type of children dealers target.

They are clearly missing a trick. Nobody would suspect middle class children.

Maybe consider putting a note outside the door: "This is not the address you are looking for".

If you’ve next door neighbours suppose you could ask if they were expecting a small package otherwise bin it.

Bonus. Lockdown freebie 😂 wouldn’t bother with the police, just flush it then you know it’s disposed of properly

Pure MDMA is yellow, crystally and looks a bit like popping candy.
Could be speed, if so I wouldn't worry about any comebacks as it's cheap.
If coke its probably only about 40 quid worth, same again, dont worry about comebacks. If all your neighbours look well-to-do and respectable then they can afford to buy more.
Glad you found it before your DS did, well done for handing it in.

Isn’t it 999 you call the police

What rfft?

Door to door at that time will be someone professional in their 40s. Probably wife and young kids in bed little bags of coke costs more that you probably think!

I thought of leaving it on the doorstep, but some one else might pick it up, not the person who bought it. I'd keep it a while in case someone calls for it, you don't want to annoy drug dealers or the person whose it is, who paid for it!!

@StopCryingYourHeartOut

Blimey it's just a little bag of drugs put through the wrong door, any need for the drama really. Just put it to one side and go to bed

LOL exactly this. Rub a bit around your gums if you cant feel your mouth after 30 seconds you and hubby are in for a good night. Put the kids to bed, grab a few bottles of prosecco and rack them up.

Or just won't care 🤷

Personally call 101, they could take finger prints and forensically examine the contents. If a stranger came knocking at my door asking for it back. I'd say I thought it might be dangerous, like anthrax, so I handed it to the police. Or better still; "I thought it was a neighbour returning some sugar I lent them the other day, so I tipped in in the sugar caddy. What is it? ""It's Coke" "ah that's explains why I was running around the garden naked at 2am, with my arms outstretched, singing the dambusters theme tune!"😆😆😆

Rtft the police have been and taken it.

Hopefully it turns out to be sugar wee Jeannie had left for you!

I know we will get 24 posts of what to do with it even though the police have it but I can't honestly believe anyone is telling you to keep it in your house!

Sell it. Make a bit of cash!

Someone who I was friends with decided to get high in my bathroom after a night out. Needless to say when I realised what she was doing I stoped her. She was totally incoherent so I made sure she got home to her boyfriend ok. Then went back to bathroom released she had left her small bag of white powder. In the morning I asked advise from my neighbour who is police. He advised to put in a bag of bleach, being very careful to not touch or inhale the powder (use latex/rubber gloves) then put out with the rubbish
