Translation: I encountered the same thing when I was young. It was supposed to be a snack with a dipping sauce, but the packet only had the sauce. The hawker was so kind and gave me a new one.
Another netizen also shared their similar experience with receiving an almost-empty snack packet.

Translation: She’ll get so many free packets for sure!!
One Facebook user teased that the woman will receive a bunch of bags of potato chips for sure.
Take it easy
Admittedly, it’s pretty rare to find zero potato chips in a crisp packet just like this woman did.
However, it’s also been proven over and over again that unexpected outcomes are very much possible.
So, if you happen to encounter the same kind of situation, just take it easy and inform the supplier. Hey, maybe you’ll even end up with a lifetime of crisps out of it.
