A little snack

St. Nicholas brought us little packages of chocolate coins and peanuts in the shell. One of the roommates (P) stored hers at dachshund level, but in her room (she keeps the door shut). Yesterday B came downstairs with a handful of peanut shells and gold wrappers which she had found in a tidy little pile just inside our room (dachshund territory). Sam had taken the peanuts and coins, transported them to our room, unwrapped and shelled the goodies (the remains looked like the work of human hands), and enjoyed the spoils. But the big question is: did he carry them one by one until he had enough for a feast, or did he consume each item immediately after bringing it to his lair, and then return for more?
