Brown paper bags
Is it just me, or are the brown paper bags in the supermarket getting thinner? I bought 6 mandarins, folded the top over and the bad split. It took me two bags, and the lady at the checkout took them out of the 2nd bag to weigh them, so that i was not over charged.👍
I also had a leak in a tray-packed chicken, which dripped onto a bag and guess what happened.
I know for a fact we throw out more produce than we used to, through not being able to see inside the bags, let alone these silly incidents.
I am not complaining, just pointing things out.

Response to regifting presents
My mind tends to wander:
I do not see any problem with regifting it back to the person who gave it, they obviously liked it. In fact, that might work out well as you buy the present you want, then gift it to someone you know who will gift it back.
Perfect, no decision needs to be made about Xmas presents
