Resale of chicken bones to restaurant
I ate in a restaurant and before paying my bill, told the owner that I will sell him the chicken bones that were left over in the plate, and then pay the difference. The owner refused and made me pay the full price on the menu although I know that he will use the chicken bones to feed his dogs. The owner is cheating all his customers like that and I want to take action on this illegality. Please guide.

You have a very creative mind. We don’t see anything wrong with the owner declining your request. When you entered the restaurant was this selling back chicken bones part of the deal? We doubt it. It was the owner’s discretion if he wanted to buy the chicken bones off you and we are sure he was okay with you taking away the bones. If he starts trading in chicken bones like this, it would probably be one of the first restaurants in the world to do so.
