For me, it's emery boards. I bet I buy a new pack every three weeks, but when it's nail time they are nowhere to be found. :explode:

I wish I could blame them for the disappearing potato chips, but that's not them. :embarassed:

What do they take from you?? :tongue:

    recently I've been losing more and more objects.... I wonder if they took them... but they're suppose to take things that people wont miss...

    so far I've lost my nice watch, my sports bra, and now a media disk for my digital camera... ugh :/

  • My favorite Neutrogena lip balm. I have to stock up WHEN I can find it.
    Oh yeah, and my sunglasses. Sometimes the borrowers put them back on top of my head when they are finished with them!! :smooched:

    My flash drive. It just disappears for days at a time, then one day it just happens to be right in plain view.

  • Hair ties!! I go to work out and find that I have none in my bag! Grrr...
  • My kitchen scissors. They are never there when I need them. I do think my husband is more to blame for this as I usually find them in the garage or on his desk.

    Ooh, yea those go missing for me. They're never where I left them. The cats are probably also part to blame, they're quite amusing doing hair-tie acrobatics!

    Hair and Body soap. I keep one in my bag and in my locker, but as soon as I leave one near a sink ... bingo it's gone.

    Yep, same thing here. I have about 15 of my daughter's socks that are missing!
    My kitchen scissors. They are never there when I need them. I do think my husband is more to blame for this as I usually find them in the garage or on his desk.

    My husband does the same thing. I need to find some pink ones that he may not like :)


    Oh, and my keys of course! They are never where they should be!

    Clothes is constantly missing, too.

    Clothes hangers. Really, where do they go? I mean, you take a shirt from the closet, there should be an empty hanger. Right? Not so around here. When I do laundry and go to hang up things, I'm always having to go in search of hangers. I blame my husband. But then, I blame him for everything. :wink:

    One of my friends had a 'problem' with borrowers in her last house. Every time she bought black undies, they would vanish within days. She blaimed her hubby, but he claimed no knowledge.
    When they came to move out, they checked the attic & found stuffed into the far corner all her missing undies.:noway:

    Kinky ghost?
