Spending time and money planning and packing beautiful Mishloach Manos with cellophane and ribbons then get a cheap cr@ppy Mishloach Manos thrown in a bag in return.

At least the brown bag might come into practical use.

The cellophane and ribbons can only be appreciated by @LoLo who sees the gallons of garbage generated as beautiful.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Not the actual garbage.. but the cause of the garbage.

The more garbage, the more fun there usually was.

Well, at least I get a free pass on recycling, so all the empty bottles don't require their own bags and receptacle. All the garbage gets dumped together.

How'd you pull that one off?
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

That's even more confidential than the UPS method. It's been going strong for at least 20 years, you don't expect me to kill this one....

Probably doesn't belong here, but..
Years ago the bank manager at my Chase branch (an Italian woman) expressed admiration for the amount of money given to charity over Purim.  She was amazed at the amount of cash withdrawn by people that was deposited into charity accounts the next day.

The branch manager at the Chase branch here told me that they fill up the vault to capacity each day before Purim and still sometimes run out. A neighbor was told by a manager at Santandar that no matter how much they request they always run out.

Rav Chaim Pinchos  Scheinberg  used to say - dust isn't chometz and your wife isn't the korban pesach!
May you slide down the banister of happiness & get many splinters of success up your career.

It's long the women being at fault. Your husband and kids aren't the kurban pesach.

I doubt that's how he said it. The famous saying is שטויב איז ניט קיין חמץ, און קינדער זיינען ניט קיין קרבן פסח.

If you keep on getting quotes/saying wrong we might strip you of your gingy title!
