My Car Ate

[marvholly]

a can of tuna on Thur. I KNOW I bought 2. The receip lists 2. I combined that bage w/another & 2 were present.

When I got home and unpacked only 1 can was in the bag.

Has your car eaten anything?

[Peace77]

No, but I have left things on the store counter.  Could it have fallen out of the bag in your car?

[alabamagal]

I have a 4 door truck and put groceries in the back seat, sometimes on the floor.  I have had things fall out of the bag and roll under the seat.  I have found groceries under the seat long after I have gone shopping.  Thankfully they have always been cans, that tend to roll.

[Regis]

No, but our dryer eats a lot of socks.

I have a minivan.  It's like a black hole.

[NancysSummerSip]

Cat food. My car has been known to devour cans of cat food. I have no idea why. Maybe I really do have a tiger in my tank?

[bookkeeper]

I once went for Chinese carryout and when I got home I was an eggroll short. Dang, the lady at the counter shorted me! Or so I thought until I got into the passenger side of my car a few days later and found the fourth eggroll. My apologies to Chinese food counter lady.

My friends from South Dakota had a very smelly car one spring day and couldn't figure out where it was coming from.  They cleaned the car, but the smell just kept getting worse.  Finally they took the back seat out of the car where they found the take home crab legs from Red Lobster from several frozen months back.  Moral of the story, keep track of your doggie bags.

[mmhmm]

Yep.  Mine ate two bottle of flavored water (it's the only way I can get mother to drink water).   They'd rolled under the front seats and I didn't see them until I looked the next day.

The car and dryer are in cahoots.  Check your front yard late at night and see if the car and dryer are holding yard sales.

[The Walk of the Penguin Mich]

Mine apparently eats dog leashes.

I had my car detailed earlier this week and there were 5 retractable leashes (and these aren't cheap) dug out.  I knew I had one back there, I have no idea where the other 4 came from.

[swamp]

Apples. I had apple sauce under the seat. 

[tloonya]

My closet ate my 2 favorite tops. If I just knew which bitch did it...I have too many!

[skubikky]

I suggest launching a full and thorough investigation.
Round up the usual suspects.
One must deal with the perpetrator in a firm and and aggressive manner(perhaps threatening to bring out the shop vac)
This sounds like the work of a front passenger side seat but could also be the
dastardly deed of a floor mat.

My house eats a lot more stuff than the van does.

[tractor]

If you ever want to do something mean, some milk under someone's car seat during the cold months. When things start to warm up, say in July, it's a smell they won't forget!

One of my kids decided to "feed" the car some milk when they were young, guess when I found out?

[NomoreDramaQ1015]

Mine eats Goldfish crackers. I removed Gwen's car seat and found a ton. I think the car was planning to form an army. The little bunkers were made out of Flintstone's Fruity Pebbles

[Deleted]

Our car is really tiny and we took out the back seat, so no problems with it.  I have to be careful with my desk though.  It came with the house and has overhead cubbies, cabinets above and below, filing drawers and a central drawer I use to keep all odds and ends I might want later.  DH puts games and stuff in the cubbies, but our cat likes to jam himself into them and will pull things out to make room    I woke up to him methodically pulling books out the bookshelf this morning to let them thump on the floor too.  That one's new

Sunglasses. Lots of them and the truck eats them too.

I figure that is probably what happened but didn't want to go out in the rain to check

In the 40+ years I have been doing laundry I have had 4-5 different dryers mostly different brands. ALL ate sox.

[Spellbound454]

I used to think it was a myth that washing machines ate socks

Until I took the old one apart and there were loads of socks in the pipe and at the back of the drum

Now all our socks are the same colour.......so if one goes missing you still have enough to make a pair

I found my car keys in the freezer once. Darned appliances!

Heh.

My ferret does this too.  
Cute boy.

I know a guy who is so persuasive that he convinced some friends that I, little old me who didn't know them well, had all of the lost socks stashed.  They believed him.

My car is a black hole.  Black interior/exterior, sucking places beside the seats and console waiting to pull things in.

[marvholly]

My car is also known for the disappearing stuff when it falls between the console & seats. Lost a BUNCH of pens & sticks of gum. NEVER had an issue before w/the floor of the backseat.

I did check on Sat. The can was on the floor. Apparently fell out of the bag.

[toomuchreality]

After my father passed away, I got quite a bit of money that had fallen down in to the recesses (frame work) of his couch and chairs.

LOL!!  She has a Toyota?  <<hopes everybody remembers doow and his issues with Toyota floor mats>>

Cat food. My car has been known to devour cans of cat food. I have no idea why.

Poor retirement planning.

My jeep ate $1300.00 on Friday
