Cadburys Caramel

Posts: 20,609 Forumite
Went to my local mini supermarket in need of chocolate.
(it's my first day off to myself since finishing my PGCE, and I've spent the entire day cleaning as I've neglected it recently, and felt guilty!).
Chocolate bars were generally 74p each. Then I spotted a pack of 3 Caramel bars for £1.
Being MSE, I bought the pack of 3, thinking I would eat one then save the other two.
Would it be really greedy of me to eat all three?
(I'm thinking my OH will scoff at least one if I don't hide them!)
(and yes, I'm procrastinating getting on with the rest of the cleaning!)

this is why I can't buy a multipack of chocolate - I would eat them all, maybe not in one go, but over a few days, I have no willpower whatsoever! darnit x0

Hide the other two...the only things a woman should hide from her OH are presents and chocolate!
If you could live one day of your life over again, which day would you choose?0 -
Mum used to hide hers in various kitchen appliences. Dishwasher/Chip Pan/Coffee Maker/Microwave etc. She knew dad would never go in there!!
Oh.. also the washing machine and drier were favourites!0 -
I hid the other two bars next to the duster and polish, knowing he'd never find them there.
But then I couldn't stop thinking about chocolate in the house, so er... ate them!
I guess buying multi-packs isn't quite so MSE when you have no willpower!Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')

Ahh but chocolate once bought goes off very quickly. In my house it goes off within a day, so it has to be eaten before that

earth could be struck by a yet unseen meteorite which could wipe us all out , i would go for it just in case , it would be a shame to waste it ,
if we're still here in the morning then you can go for a 40 mile run to burn off the calories .... so really it's a win win situation0 -
They're 4 for £1 in co-op at the moment. Trying to be a man is a waste of a woman0
