It fell into my bag
It stresses me out when people take one - plays havoc with my OCD

I do top it up and people are wary when they approach it

I was talking about chocolate with my brother and he informed me, shame-faced, that he’s already eaten a tub of Roses and 2 of QS. He lives alone.

I've ticked Xmas Eve as that's when we usually open sweets - I don't buy any tubs, but we have family coming for the weekend and the house is like Santas grotto so they're open ready! I've been really strong and wrapped 2 large bags of Caramel M&Ms for gifts too, but I've kept a bag of Coffee and Nut ones, and 5 bars of Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark for me - sorry, us!

Where I work customers bring in "a little something to open at coffee time" during the couple of weeks before Christmas - they are blooming marvellous! Nobody has to, nobody expects it, they have just always done it.

17 separate sets of people today alone! (5 of 8 of us in on a rota) Mince pies, chocolate biscuits, tubs of chocs - we are inundated and will share the goodies with the care home next door - as well as - since it is requested - opening a few at coffee time.

Always Christmas morning, it means we don't need to have breakfast!

First year we haven't bought them, the tubs are shrinking every year and the palm oil situation has helped me save a bit of extra money and pounds

We don't actually buy the tubs anymore, as has been said previously they are shrinking every year and since they changed roses and quality street they just aren't as good. However, we do have matchmakers and a fair few chocolates on the tree - I'm amazed the kids haven't scoffed the tree ones yet (which get put on when the tree goes up so 1st Dec this year) and the first of the matchmakers get opened on xmas eve - if we opened them all they wouldn't last till xmas day We also have after eights for after xmas dinner that won't be opened till xmas day
