Tenant mixes vinegar into her shampoo to figure out which roommates are using her bath products: 'I knew exactly who they were and I called them out'

Every roommate has a different idea regarding what distinguishes communal and shareable items from personal ones. Some common examples of the former are paper towels, toilet paper, milk, eggs, etc. On the other hand, examples of the latter include electronic devices, items found in an individual's bedroom, and other things of that nature. However, none of this is an exact science, and there are going to be items that fall somewhere in between these two extremes. If you have a roommate and you are unsure if you can or should use something, it's always best to ask for permission first.

You would think that asking before using would be second nature, but you would be surprised by the audacity of certain roommates with a warped view of reality. If you're living with someone who suffers from main character syndrome, they might straight-up assume that everything in the apartment at least partially belongs to them. Of course, one should avoid living with these types of people at all costs. However, sometimes, these folks reveal their true selves after the fact, as was the case for this author!

This lady discovered that people were using her shampoo without asking. She probably would have been ok with it if the culprit confessed and chipped in to buy more. However, no one admitted to using her shampoo, so another method of identifying this mysterious individual was necessary. It turns out that mixing her shampoo with vinegar was the right move, since the author was able to immediately trace the scent on the responsible parties… and yes, it turns out there were multiple people at fault here.
