Easter food eaten already

I did a big shop yesterday in anticipation of the Easter weekend.

6 bottles of wine- only 4 left
2 large bags of crisps- only half a bag left
Large bag of salad leaves- only half left
3 Easter eggs- only one left

Did I under buy, or over eat?

How many people ate/drank this? Just you?

LG93 · 06/04/2023 21:18

If it's for 1 person you overate.
If it's for a household of 4 adults/teens you under bought.

Impossible to know

dementedpixie · 06/04/2023 21:18

Sounds like a small shop
How many people in the house?

unvillage · 06/04/2023 21:21

At least someone's eating salad!

piggypoop · 06/04/2023 21:22

Oh I bought plenty of other food. This is just the stuff that has been depleted.

Two adults, two small children.

I may and/or not have depleted the stocks myself 😳

Did you not put away the Easter eggs? Children will eat sweets if they see them sitting available.

Easter salad?

I do have a whole chicken in the fridge. With half a bag of salad this should last us until May at least

I'm confused. You bought these items for the Easter weekend, ate/drank some yourself & are now asking whether you bought too little or ate too much?

Half a bag of salad leaves (I assume used as part of a meal?) seems reasonable. Two bottles of wine between two adults - also not going crazy.

I think if you buy stuff specifically for a weekend you need to not be opening it early & then wondering where it went 😉.

Slimjimtobe · 06/04/2023 21:30

Hmm ... two bottles of wine sounds fun
you cannot open the eggs til Sunday - it’s the law 🤭🤭🤭🤭
good for you eating the salad though !!

Slimjimtobe · 06/04/2023 21:31

The crisps were a result of the munchies with the wine so that’s a given

If it makes you feel better DC brought home an Easter egg from nursery today and I’m eating it now.

Will need to replace it 😂

Inthebathagain · 06/04/2023 21:33

You need far more willpower when it comes to salad imo.

The rest of it... It's Maundy Thursday, so it is already Easter weekend. Enjoy the rest of it. And I hope the repeat trip to the shops isn't too busy.

patrickbatemansbusinesscard · 06/04/2023 21:33

I love this, had to replenish quite a bit of Easter goodies over the past week...

That's what I get for trying to be organised Grin

I assumed this was another "my greedy husband" thread but actually turns out you were the perpetrator 😂 fuck it, there are no laws against when you can eat your own food

PacificallyRequested · 06/04/2023 21:34

You've drunk two bottles of wine since yesterday?!

Yeah you add chopped mini eggs and chocolate sauce. Yum.

In my defence it is normally him. I am surprised it is me this time!
