I go through this every year. I'm getting stuff for Christmas. I know I'm going to start having a creative vocabulary when I try and get all that packaging open. You dull scissors and cut yourself trying to get a small item out of that stuff. Plus, it isn't always recycleable.
I know the manufacturers do that to defray shop lifting but geez! 3% of the jerks spoil it for 97% of us.
Anyone else hate that stuff?
