Not like a car or anything major. Just fruit, napkins, condiments...
I can remember so often going out for a meal with her, and she'd always take the extras that we hadn't used. We'd go to a buffet and she'd take extra, easily hidden, food for later consumption. I'm fairly certain that a buffet doesn't have a take-out option. They sort of bank on the idea that you won't eat as much as you pay for, nevermind taking some home.
The last time Brandon and I went out to eat somewhere I recall keeping the extra ketchup and napkins and being reminded of my grandmother. Never mind turning into your mother, I skipped that generation and went straight to the earlier. Come to think of it, I've been "stealing" condiments since I've been an adult, and before that I was doing it for my grandma. We're a regular Bonnie & Clyde duo. Better watch out for us fast food & restaurants of Canada...we're on our way to your door step next! Stealing ketchup, mustard, napkins and plastic cutlery on our way...
Laugh at me now, but when times get tough, and money a bit tight, and you've got a naked hotdog jonesing for some ketchup, don't come crawling. Because we're hoarders, not sharers. This for sure is my strength should the zombie apocalypse come upon us.
