Yeah, I remember it... For my grandmother, it was three things...

1. Every time she went shopping, she'd get two pounds of butter. She had 20+ pounds of butter in her freezer when I visited once. She said "they were on sale"... but the best before dates spanned over a year.

2. She said the phone was broken, because she couldn't call any of her friends. She lost the ability to copy the numbers from her address book to the phone properly.

3. She was also hoarding cash. There was almost $3k in cash on the kitchen table in an envelope. So much money in small bills that the envelope was stuffed full. I took all but $250 to the bank to deposit it.
