Burglary: Part 3 - what was in that spot?

It's a good enough puzzle to be in Games Magazine. Time and again we've looked at a hole in heavily packed garage shelves and ask ourselves, "What was there last week?"

For example (and we can't figure out what took us so long to compute) we saw right away that the burglars took the ice chest that was sitting next to the freezer. Only today did we think about why they would take an empty ice chest. They wouldn't! We finally opened the freezer to find it half empty when it was previously filled so full we couldn't get more food in. Now there's room for all sorts of things. But what? We know the bottom was filled with hamburger chubs but what about the other shelves?

Our insurance company has begun our file and called asked if we really wanted to submit a claim in this matter. We decided to leave the actual missing items out of our claim for a few more days to give us time to remember more.

The claim just keeps growing and growing.

  1. I know you said earlier that this looked to be a crime of convenience but you guys don't live on a busy street. Someone had to be going door to door looking for open doors/windows. At least there are hopefully a fewer number of people doing that than simply noticing an open door.

    Sucks in general though :(
