Joie Wants To Know . . .

I'm in the back unpacking today. We got a lot of large boxes - Christmas merchandise is starting to arrive. I just opened up a box large enough to hold - let's say, three large fluffy bed pillows. In other words, fairly large. Inside: a lot of paper, and one small box, the size of a - let's say, a good, thick, old fashioned telephone book. And that was it. And, inside that small interior box?Something delicate, easily broken, made of glass? Nope! One dozen fabric holiday headbands. I had to go out to the front of the store and deliver an impromptu "what not to do when packing boxes" speech, complete with visual aids - the boxes themselves. My question: Why would anyone pack something in this ridiculous way? Why?
