Milk Leak


Yesterday I had milk leak all over the passenger seat of my car. Silly girl who bagged my milk must have known it was leaking because she double bagged it. Which they never do at that store. I didn't noticed the leak through my black car seat cover until hours later.
I had wondered why she didn't fill my canvas bag to the brim. Instead she gave me a plastic bag for my dry goods and put the ice cream and butter in the cloth bag. I was tired so nothing computed properly yesterday.

It was a short drive home, I laid the groceries on the table as I ran to the bathroom. Returning to put the milk away I stepped in what I thought was water. I carried the milk to the fridge, then took the jug out of what was now a soaked bag. Looked over to see a huge puddle of milk on the table, and the floor too! Cleaned it all up and left the milk in the sink to be returned when I met my daughter.

It didn't even dawn on my that the milk would be soaked into the seats and rug of my car until I went to meet Pepper. There is was still sopping wet five hours later. No time to deal with it then, we spent part of the evening trying to soak up what we could. I can only imagine what it's going to smell like in a few weeks if I've missed any of it!! A puke factory probably! Lets hope the shaving gel and baking soda foot powder works at masking the odor. To be continued!

That girl needs a talking to Giggs! HOW dare she bag you leaky milk! MORON!
That mess in the car is a nightmare,shit like that makes me cry! Like the time when Frank was a baby and THREW the Bowl of pastina in the air! THE Cleanup was endless!
It's weird that you are dealing with milk today, cause just yesterday I went into the little fridge in my shop and the odor almost knocked me down. I forgot a small pitcher of milk in there and SOMEONE hit the switch which shut off the fridge! EWW ulkkkk It took twice with bleach to remove the stink.
I don't know What to suggest on your car seats! (simple green?)
ooh wait.. Peter (mr.clean) suggested steam vacuuming after suctioning the liquid out. good luck! don't cry! xoxo

At first I thought this was a review of the movie Milk. :-)

So the cashier solution to a leaking container is not to alert the customer so she can purchase a nonleaking container, but to double bag it so it leaks.....LATER.
I get it now. ~Mary

Oh, man, what a mess. Good luck!! The only thing I can think of is to add chocolate cake = but....maybe not.

Time to return to the store and have them come clean. Or at least get the seat and carpet clean.

There is nothing worse than the smell of sour milk! Well... except for the time someone left the sun roof open in the 4 Runner and it rained!

Yikes, what a shame. Don't you just love how some folks do their job? They could have easily said I'll get you another carton of milk. That would have been the right thing to do.

I hope there isn't any smell. I'm so hoping.

Have a terrific day. Big hug. :)

Yikes! I hate stuff like that! My car is 16 years old and I'd still cry if that happened. I only have a little over a 100,000 miles on it though, so I still think of it as my new car. :D
