A friend of mine used to eat the back part of all her kids easter eggs and wrap them all back up. Her daughter was stunned when she started to buy them as a grown up, she was amazed that they now do full eggs!!

I pick up all the red elastic bands that the postmen throw away in the street. I'm thinking of selling them back to the Post Office.:D

Oh, gross. I know someone who lets their dog eat off their plate on a daily basis. When they invited me to dinner, I politely declined!:eek:

My MIL comes every friday to babysit kids and she brings her own bread, butter(!) beans crisps sweets and her own tin opener. She knows us too well.
