'I haven’t heard a thank you': 23-year-old woman pays $360 to save older sister’s storage unit from auction, after learning it holds dining set their grandparents promised to her, restricting older sister's access until she refunds her, sparking tension

Sisters are infamously known for growing up fighting over clothing, makeup, boys…pretty much anything that could be classified as 'mine.' The thing is, oftentimes it doesn't seem to be something that all sisters grow out of. Because when sisters utter, with a false smile, what's mine is yours, what they actually mean is, I want it, but only if it belongs to her…

Now, these two siblings are in a similar situation. However, this younger sister may have a valid reason for demanding keep-safe regarding what belongs to her financially irresponsible older sister.

When this 35-year-old sister can no longer afford to pay for her storage unit, she learns that all her belongings inside will be auctioned off within a matter of days…When her younger sister gets hold of the news, she realizes the dining set promised to her by her grandparents is in the storage unit, and she decides to buy the unit for $360. In addition, helping her sister get back what was rightfully hers. So she purchased the unit and agreed with her sister that its ownership would change to her name…All seemed reasonable as this younger sister came to the rescue…that was until she told her 35-year-old sister that she was not allowed to access anything within the unit until she reimbursed her the full $360…Sparking raging tension between the sisters!
