Great ideas. Makes no difference what you use. We need to reuse our stuff rather then waste it

Jerseydrew exactly and I am a massive advocate for reusing like our ancestors did. Reuse, fix ect.

SaveMeSunday - I would be very, very insulted to sent something like the above picture. Go to the Pound shop and buy some plastic mailing envelopes and the discounted shops for free cardboard boxes available in various sizes.

jam45 it would be ok if the item sent was still in the condition you expect it to be. We need to be more responsible for our planet and reuse packaging. I must admit I reuse all my amazon packaging and any other packaging I get sent stuff in

chele44 Are you serious?

Are you vegan by any chance?

The world can't revolve around you atm.

I tell you what, if you don't like Amazon packages, DON'T USE F*CKING Amazon.

Are you old enough to be on here, because you have to be 18..

TheChimp I’m sorry but we seem to have crossed wires here. I just said that I reuse Amazon packaging to send stuff to others rather than spending money on more packaging. No I’m not vegan and I’m an adult with 4 adult kids. Maybe the packaging in photo might not be acceptable to some people but I’m always more concerned with my goods inside rather than what packaging looks like. Sorry if I’ve offended you in some way

chele44 I'm very sorry, I read it wrong.

I am deeply embarrassed and I extend my apologies.

TheChimp sorry I didn’t mean to embarrass you, we can all get things wrong and your apology is greatly appreciated but really wasn’t necessary

Hey SaveMeSunday

Great idea and thanks for sharing!

I personally would have no issues whatsoever if something I ordered came in re-used or recycled packaging. As long as the contents are safe and sound I'm happy as Larry!

I usually keep any packaging I receive stuff in and it can be reused. Personally I wouldn’t have any problem receiving items in the packaging shown above, as long as I haven’t been charged a premium for P&P.

Sorry Id I have offended people with my inventive packaging. I always make sure the items are secure inside. I just like to make the best of what we have save the planet and all that.
