Where have I put...?

I treated myself to some new clothes the other day and they arrived on Friday.

Can I find them?

I've looked in the wheelie bins, the porch, my bedroom, the bathroom, the cloakroom, the kitchen and the hall. Nowhere! Where would I have put them? I'm the kind of person not to put things away so I'd have just put them down somewhere as I came in the house which makes it even more odd that I can't find them.

It's driving me up the wall

Try the fridge. You’d be surprised at how many people put their keys in there.

Are they hung up in your wardrobe?!

In the laundry?

Hidden under a pile of something?

Anyone in the house that may have taken them into their room?

Shoved in a box or bag somewhere?

In the cupboard of doom (I assume everyone has one)?

Who else lives in your house?

Behind the settee. On the chair under the exercise mat. In the airing cupboard.

Did you definitely bring them in - do you have a car?

Car. Boot, back seat, look under the seats.
Toy boxes
Freezer
Shed
Under the bed
Under the coats in the hall
Do you have a dog? Ask him!
Porch
Under the stairs
Are you sure you bought them

I've looked in the fridge and the car, neither place. They never went in the car as they were delivered to my house.

I didn't take them out of the pack as I wanted to wash them later and was rushing to the bathroom (they aren't there either).

We don't have a cupboard of doom and they aren't in my wardrobe

I can't find them in a box or a bag.

I've even emptied the wheelie bins.

Also no toy boxes, no shed, no freezer, no dog. The porch is most likely but I've tidied that up and put all the shoes away and it's not there.

I do have a teenager but the parcel would had to be a life size godzilla or say xbox on it for it to be noticed.

Washing basket

Blueskytoday06 · 25/04/2021 15:11

Washing machine ?

indiakulfi · 25/04/2021 15:12

No, no washing basket and they aren't in the washing machine unless I put them there still in the pack.

But have you actually looked in the washing machine?

indiakulfi · 25/04/2021 16:46

Yes, I looked in the machine. Not there!

Dropped down the back of the chair/ cupboard/ washing machine.
Under the sofa/ bed
On a kitchen chair that's tucked under the table

indiakulfi · 25/04/2021 17:14

Errm...I found it.
Under the tyre of the bike in the hall where I had already looked several times. The company I ordered from have changed their packaging from blue and white to brown and so it is all their fault as I was looking for a white package with blue writing.

As to how it got there...well who knows but I suspect Arrietty.
