take, toss, reuse, recycle

so, i bought kitten some new sippy cups the other day. i had invested in some Nice Ones, but i was tired of rinsing them out over and over and the straw/lid mechanism was too involved for my taste. i like simple.

so i went to wal-mart and picked up what looked like the cheapest BPA-free sippy cups with the fewest parts. inexpensive, not a big deal if they get lost, and good enough to use until she can use the cute little melamine tumblers i bought. but i got it home and looked at the packaging and wanted to slap the designer right into a compost bin:


take and toss.
reuse and recycle.

you can't have it both ways, you dolts.

***
FN: apparently i'm not the first person to notice this little redundant gem, because as i was doing a google image search for a picture of a take and toss package i came across this blog post, and i stole his image. but i did have the common decency to rehost it.
