Chip overload !

[phillgt2002]

My mom is a school teacher. She sometimes gets free things from the school district. She comes and asks me to help here get some things out of the boot of our car and I see 10 boxes. I don't know what is inside. I come into the house it is bag after bag of Frito Lay chips. She says it is $500 worth of chips. I can't eat that many of these things. Munchies Frito's Doritos every popular chip you can name. I don't know what to do with these!! My family won't be able to eat them either.. Should I sell them at my school ?

Also it contains full bags. Like $3-$5 dollar bags.

Why did she buy it in the first place?

When I saw the thread title I though it would be computer-related...

But seriously, pics or it didn't happen. That way we know you're not trolling.

 

[Schwartz]

I want!!!
Donate them to the homeless shelter... or something...

 

[phillgt2002]

I can't post any pictures. I would if I could. It's seriously insane. I had two bags.

Right now I'm just going to give them to friends or sell them to people.

At the moment I have a bag of Sour Cream and Onion chips , Flaming Hot Fries , Frito's flavor twist , Munchies ultimate cheddar , lays , some kind of pork things , Cheeto's puffs and alot of other stuff. I will try and find a cord to my camera.

Sell it in bulk for a larger price to stores.

Nice to see they're helping to cut down obesity.

He can't, you're not supposed to resell them.

Send 'em my way instead.

I doubt they'll take them.

Sir, I wish I had your problem.

 

[phillgt2002]

She didn't buy it. They were giving to ALL of the teachers at the school. Very odd. I think Frito Lay had a surplus or something. I have no clue.

If I knew how to ship stuff I would ship bags to people but of course they will have to pay S&H.

Um. No.
If your Mum has received these things free from the school district as a teacher, then she's supposed to use them for the school & its pupils, not for personal use.
If you sell these for personal gain and the school district finds out I'm not sure they'd be very impressed.

They're probably unsaleable seconds or have a very short sell-by date on them.

Well she did tell me that the people asked for how many kids she has in each classroom. She said she had about 26. I told her to give some to the kids and she thought about it.

Wrong, actually.

My mother also works for the school district out here and she does the same thing. Usually it's because the expiration date has passed and they give the stuff away rather than throw it out. She'll bring home bags of chips, chocolate milk, regular milk, etc.

Bring them to your local soup kitchen.

Same here. We were given Milk , and other stuff. but these chips are not even near pass the expiration. The boxes were sealed when we got them.

 

[Schwartz]

Send me a box now!!!

 

[CodeRedR51]

Overstock I would guess.

 

[ParkourVeyron]

Overstock I would guess.

This is my guess as well, though I've never heard of a school that has family-size bags of chips at their disposal.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Oh, yeah that is weird. The Chips that my mom brings home are the little $.50 cent snack bags.

Expired milk?

 

[phillgt2002]

Expired milk?

Well not passed but near. The chips that we have been given are fresh.

Eating a bag of Kettle Cooked Jalapeno.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Expired milk?

Well it's at or just past the date printed on the container. Which is actually a "sell by" date. It's not like the milk goes bad when it hits that day.

Clock strikes twelve. Milks go bad.


That's just how it works.

My milk usually goes bad the day prior. I always end up having to make pancakes to get rid of it.

My Mother used to make pancakes and other pastries when she got the free milk. Or she froze it.

Up-cycle.

Stamp on them in your garden, all of them, until they're all crumbs, and watch as your garden becomes the biggest bird sanctuary in town. You might have to clean up a lot of poop, thought, but think of the exchange; unhealthy packs of Lays for prime foul fresh from your garden. Do you have pheasant in your area?

Always up-cycling, that's me.

Pheasants. No. I don't recall any pheasants in my area. That could be a mean prank on a friend.

I'm so doing this to my neighbors.

Both of you are weird.
