Huh?  I have many sets of the storage boxes.  If there's a good price I would definitely buy more than I needed at that time.  A use will certainly come up.  Plus I pack my family members' holiday gifts in them before putting them in the shipping box.  Everyone always loves that I do that.

Thats a really good idea to pack gifts in them and ship!  I have a few extra that I have purged "stuff" from...



Now that I've started that trend a few years ago, no one will let me stop.  I don't only use these storage boxes, I also use nice tote bags and canvas drawstring bags for kids.

No biggie.  Just a sales pitch which everyone should be used to by now.

I guess they're counting on people buying more useless stuff.  We'll need more storage boxes to keep it all. 😄


I have lots of sets and find them very useful.

Boy oh boy ! I have said it before and I say it again, I could not be a salesperson ! Woman Very Happy

I heard Jane Brown this morning encouraging customers to buy at least 2 sets of the Periea Boxes even if you don't need them because you will at some point !  The other Jane tonight is saying the same thing ! Buy more than 1 set even if you don't need them !!

I'm laughing because why would anyone buy 1 set much less 2 or more  when you don't need them ? Woman LOL


At least you know, you couldn't be a salesperson!

I have several sets of these Periea boxes. I have a few bed quilts that I change often and keep them in the Periea boxes.  I keep my Summer handbags in them during the Winter and Winter bags during the Summer.  I keep extra bed pillows in one.  There are many uses for them.  The only problem I have with them is you can't stack too many heavy ones on top of each other.  I love them and may buy this set.

When a Chico's near me first opened, I ended up with a "collection" of their shopping bags.  They were really classy with satiny ribbon ties and an inside liner collar with animal prints.  The logo was neat and centered.

 

I used them for Christmas gifts:  attached a recycled Christmas card over the logo, used red or green tissue paper to stuff the top, and added a sprig of silk holly with a jingle bell and small Christmas balls.....all could be reused as decor fillers.

 

it was enjoyable creating the " trimmings "....time changes everything but my memories.

That was a great idea!  I have reused Anthropologie holiday bags in a similar way.  I love to use gift wrap that can be reused somehow.

Well I'll just say I started off with one set and then realized I needed another!

So there's that.   I believe most people would end up doing the same thing so why not tell them ahead of time?  They are addicting, especially if you are a crazy organizational person like myself.
