Amazon's Wasteful Shipping Error


Let's play a game. Yay, I love games. I ordered something from Amazon and I want you to guess what I ordered based on the box it was delivered in below. You're probably thinking, Ander... I have no idea what you ordered nor could I guess based on a stupid box. Well, yes you are correct; however, you could probably assume that I ordered a large object. Textbooks? Toaster? Keurig? Nope, not even close. 

See, even the box looks sad... scroll down to see what I really ordered...

 



Don't cheat now

Okay, go ahead













Tada! 




Ironically, I ordered a screen protector for my Amazon Kindle. This product weighs about an ounce, (which could have been packed in an envelope) and was sent in a box big enough for a small child to play "Spaceship" in (we all did it). Don't get me wrong, I love Amazon. They're one of my favorite companies and rivers; however, this experience makes me sad. Yes,  I received my product on time and in good condition but the way I received it screams "wasteful". 

So, all I have to say is I love you, Amazon but I don't like you right now. I'm sure they didn't mean it and I am one to forgive but this was a big no-no. Did I mention my Kindle case came in an envelop? Oh the silliness.

   


Has anyone else had an experience like this?
