I think my roommate(s) stole from me.
So I bought groceries YESTERDAY and got home around 8PM, made dinner and went back into the kitchen a few more times that night, where I noticed my fruit snack box wasn’t on any counters or in any cabinets, so I just assumed I left them in my car.
Went to grab a snack tonight and discovered the (previously unopened) box of cereal was indeed open, and was almost completely empty (about an inch left) and was immediately pissed off. I then searched my car, my room, the entire kitchen and every cabinet and could not find them. Then decided to message my roommates.
This is the conversation I had with them. I believe the girl who said “I’m not home” is the most likely perpetrator, however the other girl who was home could’ve- though very unlikely- taken them. I don’t know what to do and I’m not good at confrontation. I don’t want to outright accuse anyone because it would cause issues, but I’m also moving out in a week so… I dunno, it was like my last $25 dollars for those snacks and it’s really frustrating.
The only other possibility is that someone broke in (we live within half a mile of a college and though I ask, they don’t always lock the doors when they leave.) We live in a pretty big apartment, and it would’ve been easy to just walk in.
What should I do? I know it’s small but it’s big for me, as I’m struggling immensely financially and just wanted those small pleasures.
