Boxes on the Brain
This is a moving kit we purchased.Look closer.
See that circled bit in red? Just a little closer...
Ah. There is no truck in the box.
I'm so glad they pointed that out.

(Does this mean that someone out there might actually think that—?
Tell me it isn't so.)

wynne: that is so funny that they had to write that DUH! thing on there just in case anybody really thought there was a truck inside. funny. ~kathleeny-beany
the funny thing is that if they didn't write it on the box someone could sue them for a truck. I am sure Jake was disappointed that there was no truck.
Where did you get the moving kit?
It's scary, isn't it, what has to be specified on the packaging.
Umm...purchased it at Costco. (Of course.)
Really? Now, that's surprising... have you opened the box to double check? Cause if you got that at Costco, you never know! Costco is the land where dreams come true ;)
I think it would be more useful if they noted that Sanity is not included. Because that picture on the front of the package with all the nice, neat, perfecly squareular packing boxes seems to be asserting that the possession of these excellent empty boxes with make the moving process tidy and non-aggravating. You should sue for false advertising.
And I agree with Melissa. If you got it from Costco, you never know what might be jammed in there as a Super Bonus Extra. And if there's no truck in the package, there's probably a form in there that you use to send away for one (free with just 20,000 proofs of purchase!)
you know, melissa is right: costco is an awesome place and filled with so many cool things and it could've been inside the box. maybe at least a matchbox version :)
~wheeples to you tonight :) kathleen
Well, it could have been a blow up truck or something. Or a transformer? Maybe they were afraid people would think the boxes could turn INTO a truck. No people, these are not Decepticon boxes, just plain ol' cardboard ones.
And before you ask it? Yes. I am a huge nerd.
