How many times?

[TWR]

We have all been there, we have all cursed the bloody stuff, what would you really do if you ripped through a vein in your arm, wait for it! Trying to get through that Bloody thick plastic wrapping on some of the goods you bye from the large stores, today we bought 2 Items, a knife, a pair of scissors then success the thing was open. If you Did cut your arm on this stuff would you sue the Supplier? & before anyone starts I do not put claims in for anything.

That's nowt. Not seen kids toy packaging lately?

Not only are they tightly encased in plastic, the other week i had to unpick stitching holding Barbies head to cardboard by her hair (!), unscrew her roller skates, after spending 20 minutes looking for a tiny phillips screwdriver (thank you Xmas cracker) and untwizzle (its a word- right?) about 30 wirey plasticy things before I got it out the box.

I was ruddy knackered by the time i'd done it and Mini Boo had got bored waiting and bogged off to play with something else!

gawd, thank goodness my daughters got past the barbie age, one christmas my hands were red raw from unpacking barbie stuff, the hair was stuck to the card and there were a gazillion plastic wire ties, makes me shudder just thinking about it..

outragious isn't it cazzz? At christmas it got to the point where we had to tell Mini Boo "we'll open that one later" as we'd lost the will to live after an hour of wrestling with packaging.
