(Wait. You haven't ordered any plates. Don't get confused, I'm telling a story. Bear with me.)
You'd been meaning to get them for a while but then you got given a voucher for the shop and 20% off, so you decided to seize the day. Anyway, that's irrelevant. The point is that you ordered some plates.
Still with me?
Right. How would you expect them to arrive? Have a think about it.
In a box?
Or a few boxes?
Perhaps with some bubble wrap?
No.
They arrived in a bag.
Yes, a bag.
And each plate was in its own padded envelope.
Am I the only one who finds this odd?
lol. That is a little odd. Mind you, I ordered some Pyrex bowls from Amazon and they arrived in nothing more than a box and some brown paper. Was lucky they didn't break!
ReplyDeleteGreat story telling!
I am totally with you, that is ODD. Nice plates though?
ReplyDeleteToo too funny. But at least you can re-use them for your orders...
ReplyDeleteThat is REALLY odd. You'd think that if they were in their own individual envelopes that they'd still be put in a box. Right?

That particulr shop is well known in our family for bizarre packaging. For example, my mum ordered a couple of dresses a while ago - one arrived sort of rolled up around a coat hanger in a bag, the other arrived in a box measuring about 2 feet by 2 feet by 3 feet. A dress. Wow.
ReplyDeleteLost Star: Thanks for the comment on my story telling!
ReplyDeleteKate: Yes they were nice plates. Just the right size for a piece of cake. I shall photograph them and show you.
Rowan: That's exactly what I thought ;)
Lila: Thanks for the comment and welcome to my blog!
Lissy: That's is so bizarre! I'd love to know why they do it. Do they put red things in boxes and white things in bags? There seems to be no logic to it.
