Other supplies seem to be as bad a Dunelm parcel I received was in a huge box less then half full. Drives me mad. My daughter has started complaining to the offending companies.

At least it's cardboard. DH ordered some Hotel Chocolat in the sale and the amount of plastic is Shock We also received one Carluccio's pandoro for Christmas that was shipped in a bigger box than the multiple bits, including a chocolate Pantone we ordered for ourselves. The gov. really needs to shift the onus onto industries here.

Agree at least it can be recycled. I'm sure I read somewhere they only have a handful of different packaging sizes so have to pick the best fit or something.
