Thanks a lot for giving me a whole new
phobia - previously opened toothpaste - I was blissfully ignorant before reading this. As for soap, come move to South Africa, our soap has no shrinkwrap and is easy to open. As for DVD's - we have the same problem, by the time you've opened it, the movie has already moved to TV.

Packages are Truly Sealed These Days
Thanks for your comment on my post. Respecting the pink slip is worth keeping in mind. I am fortunate to have a husband who been here for me!!

no, I didn't know that about Starburst once being Opal Fruit...
And I wish I didn't know about the kid sampling the toothpaste. Yuck-o. I think I'll be checking the toothpaste seal from now on...

Have you tried to open children's toys lately? They have them tied down and the ties are twisted underneath. It's hell getting them out. Christmas time and birthdays are dreaded events for me, for that very reason.

Great observations, whacky!
I've decided that since DVD wrappers must surely be adult proof, does that mean children can more easily unwrap them???

Whackydotter!!
You do hit on all the things that bug me too luv. Just today I was teaching myself how to print CD labels and then stick them on the CD. Sheesh, I had 'em stuck half on the CD, half on my desk pad, my fingers, and the darn things are so hard to get out of their template.

Those ziploc lunchmeat packages
