AIBU to keep a neighbours parcel and open and keep it for myself?

[RoseRedder]

Parcel arrived on the 2nd of January

it was a delivery that the delivery people put it under there doormat

I took it in in case of theft

We live in flats

I put a note threw their door

It's not been collectected

can I open it and keep it now?

Squish

tunnnande haire ? wtf is tunnade h\ir anyway? nak

When I said the queen could sod off I meant it metaphorically. Sorry ma'am.

Now you've opened it OP you may as we'll try it! Is it like that caffeine shampoo that the Germans love for some reason?

It will be from QVC TV shop. Probably cost £59.99 a bottle with £7.95 P&P. Your poor out of pocket neighbours. :(

Its quite possible. I know someone who went to prison for smuggling drugs in shampoo.

Exactly Antlers. It's like those Border Control Customs programmes. You need to get a stanley knife and carefully slit the bottle open and get the drugs out.

MsLT, the poor dead bald neighbours.

Decant it into mini bottles you can post through the door individually.

I don't think the medication part was serious somehow curlew :)
The OP didn't take in a parcel...she took a parcel unasked from under a doormat. Neither the postman or neighbour asked her to do this. I don't doubt OP did this with good intentions, but if you have sent notes and knocked with no response, just put it back! It's really not hard. You can't just make up your own rules and decide to keep the parcel you took unasked from someone's doorstep.
I don't think the OP ever had any intention of not opening it.

Good Idea sparkling. However, in about three days couple of blokes (think the cousins in breAKIng bad) are going to be knocking on the door, Its a fucking set up if you ask me. nak

for Rose's poor dead, bald neighbours.

OP, really just send it back. You can't give it to your neighbours without them knowing its been opened.

This happened a long long time ago with me and some hairdressers. A courier company left a parcel for me at a nearby hairdresser, they opened it and resealed it but I could see that's what they had done. When I went to the shop to get it they were handling the parcel and talking about keeping it. The sender was a friend and even now, every now and again, when we are drunk we mutter darkly about the hairdressing thieves. Do you want that from a neighbour?

What was in your parcel MrsW?

To the poor, bald , dead neighbours.

I really hope they are ok really

If you knocked 29 times at 10am when they were at work, or 7pm when they are at work, that is not strenuous attempts to return the parcel! Tape a note to their door fgs.

I am sure they are. It may have been a free sample even.

Alternatively tape the parcel to the door.

I don't want to say, Sparkling. It wasn't in any way dodgy but I made a proper enormous fuss about it at the time so if you know me in RL you'll know who I am here and I love being Mrs Wedge.

Call the police to report that your balding neighbour, Mr or Mrs BlaBla, ( name on parcel) has not been seen or heard of since Christmas & you are concerned about their welfare .

well kind of delivey delverer
thinks hiding a parcel under a doormat will make it invisible?

No prob MrsW. Glad you got your parcel back from the thieving hairdressers though..

You took it incase of theft?
You took it and now want to keep it?

Have you not seen your neighbours in almost a month?
Try knocking on their door again
Otherwise, return to sender.
