Stress Free Packaging

 

traditional-packaging-vs-frustration-free-packaging

One of the things that annoys me is the plastic packaging they use for many small electronics. You know the type that is vacuum sealed in plastic and it is almost impossible to remove without the help of a specialized tool ? I mean what is the point of making it so difficult to open?

So I was very pleased to read recently that Amazon are going to start selling products with stress free packaging. This will not only make sure that I can open the package without having to swear unnecessarily and use sharp instruments but also it will be good to the environment as there will be less waste.

Unfortunately there are only 30 or so products on Amazon that offer this type of packaging but hopefully more and more items will be added as I’m sure most customers would prefer it.

This stress free packaging can’t come soon enough for Larry David. In a scene for the latest season of Curb Your Enthusiasm he gets given a GPS Navigation System as a gift. Check out what regular packaging does to him :)

(By the way if you haven’t seen Curb Your Enthusiasm , what are you waiting for ? Its been one of the funniest shows on TV for the last 3 or 4 years !)

    Glad you enjoyed the clip Z. Actually its one of the very few times Larry really loses it :)

    I agree with you. I am not sure why they use this kind of packaging.
