I'm expecting a delivery from Amazon in the next few days, I bet the delivery person isn't one from the recent TV advert

[Ed.]

I've had loads of Amazon delivery's like that but assumed it was pissed off employees trying to waste company money, never reported it.

Hugh Fernly Wittingwhatsit did a program on it recently, obviously didn't have much effect!
They delivered some stuff the OH ordered the other day, just left it on the doorstep which is directly by the side of the road....

Soon complain if it got broken in transit...

Had the same thing, same sized box as you for a £4 4 pack of lithium AA batteries. Best thing was that it was airmailed overnight from Germany with my prime delivery.

Yet they can still do everything they do cheaper than the highstreet.

[All that jazz]

There's an Amazon box thread on here somewhere with loads of examples. Thread has been running for years.

I love it when this happens as I use the packaging from inside for packaging at work

I had a door mat turn up the other day. Rather than rolling the thing up and putting it in an oblong box they put it in a box so the mat was laid out flat.

I'm sure some take the p1ss and do it for a laugh.

I thought it was going to be this one, another loosely box-related clip. Not sure why this appeared in the suggested clips list on Youtube for me, but it did. Sean Locke "carrot in a box" on 8 out of 10 cats.

Have had many similar deliveries.

It has put me off ordering stuff - I now try and queue items in the basket to minimise packaging.

Quite a few of the impulse purchases are then removed from the basket a couple of days later.
