30 Unnecessary Packaging Fails That Got Shamed Online

Yes, that is what this post is about :-)

Maybe to protect against battery violence :P

You mean a bit turtle kill

If they do not it will break 🤪

This is one of the reasons postal workers loathe amazon,

Maybe they thought it was a hydrogen fuel cell, in which case that is underkill.

It’s for a cat... their cat ordered it

Only a bit?

A bit?

They do that all the time. Its crazy

oh, come on....just a little bit

For real. This would make me sooo happy. I love to walk on bubble wrap in bare feet

Yes, but sadly not for the turtles.

For me, it would be minutes.

i NEVER throw away bubblewrap. Its there in times of stress to stop me wanting to throttle my friends :D

I think it’s that new kind of bubble wrap where all the air chambers are connected, so you can’t even get satisfying pops out of them! >:(

They should save them for when they have to live in a box after spending all their money on ink.

A cardboard castle for a cat

They're not big enough for a full castle, sadly.

I thought of the same thing.

I don't disagree with your comment, but the carbon footprint should also be taken into account. It's not just the packaging itself that's problematic.

Just because something is recyclable doesn't mean it should be used irresponsibly

That is not wrong, but for transporting extra weight the first time, and also recycling you need extra energy. Why? We waste also too much energy not only too much ressources.

My eyes skipped the " industrial butcher paper," and only read "That is 100% recyclable..." And I began to think, "Yeah, and you can reuse the paper, too." I'm so funny when I'm half-asleep.

So is bull's s**t.

or play with it and make a billion paper aeroplanes

I fold it up carefully to use in other packaging.

Hmmm, not sure all Brits are skinny

Seattle area oranges are over $1.00 EACH. Same with Grapefruit. Certain apples are at least $3.25 lb. One can't afford to eat fresh fruit and veggies.

"A dozen" would be cheaper in Britain, too. The extra cost comes from the extra packaging. Nothing wrong for it. You want a single packed apple? You want a lot of extea waste with your apple? You pay for it

Maybe in your area they're .20 cents a piece...

In Australia we pay approx $3.50 - $5.90 for approx 8-10 (1kg) apples.

we pay about R2 a apple thats 0.20 dollars in south Africa fruit and veg is crazy cheap im surprised at how much people pay in other country's for fruit and veg. we have people selling on the side of the road even by the traffic lights, we actually dont ave an excuse not to buy

Yeah, Brit here. I'd like to assure you, that is an un reasonably expensive apple. They normally come loose and you pay by weight or in multipacks and much cheaper.

Apples don't make you fat haha and this is a very fancy brand, this isn't your average supermarket.

Nonsense, this is Waitrose, a shop for posh people. Also single fruits from shops are generally more expensive than packs

One third of Brits are considered obese.

A fat Brit just walked past. F**k the calculations and stuff

Brits are the fattest people in Europe...

Depends on the variety of apple and the size. I literally just got home from a standard supermarket (Giant) where I bought 2 Red Delicious and the cost was something like $1.35.

its different tiers of fresh food, while one can eat red delicious apples and roma tomatos, sometimes I splurge on honeycrisp apples and heirloom tomatos as a treat.

And here I am having no idea how much apples cost cause I cannot eat apples ;( ;( ;( ;( ;(

dam bro , not all brits are skinny

I was thinking this is why Brits, like Americans, are overweight. Healthy food is sold at a premium while convenient, sugary, or fatty food is cheap.
