Why must toy companies put so many zip ties and elastic bands, etc. around everything they sell?
I swear it takes me longer to open the darn toy at home than it does to wander through Wally, waiting on the kids to pick out said toy, stand in the endless long line to cash out, and then drive home?
Are Wal-mart or the toy companies so worried that I am going to steal this big rectangle box of toy? Am I going to somehow be able to stick it up under my shirt and pretend I am about to birth a giant square?
Makes me want to start making my own toys...do the Amish do that? Wonder if they will gimme a lesson.

Oh I hate toy packaging too! Drives me insane. I'm like a kid in a candy shop when I buy toys for Curtis. I can't wait to get them out and play with them.. but it takes SOO long! What a waste of materials too. Sheesh. Some of them you need a knife or scissors even! :S
I say this every time I buy a toy. I mean seriously, WTF? They spend more money on packaging than they do making the damn toy.
You are so right! I remember after my baby shower-I had a garbage bag full of nothing but plastic packages,little wire ties,plastic ties,sticky backed cardboard.It was unbelievable.I learned right after he was born the packaging ordeal continues.It's ridiculous and think of what it does to the environment.Not withstanding what it does to drive people insane!
I know what you mean! I say this EVERY time I buy the boys a toy!! It takes forever to open...in fact, sometimes I think I spend more time opening the toys than they do playing with them.
