It's dark in here, which reflects the mood. Expect things to get serious.

The other week I bought a dress in the Per Una section of M&S. I don't often shop there but it was a bargain - reduced from £45 to £15 - and I couldn't resist. However, when I unpacked it at home I discovered that, in addition to the card swing tags displaying size, price and washing instructions, it also carried a completely useless plastic tag.
M&S are doing their bit to reduce waste for which they are to be commended, but they could do with losing these pointless tags.
I took a photo of the offending article. I can't work out how to attach it to this comment so I will try to send it separately.
I'm addicted to pretty shiny things!! :) /That's why the attic is soo full of them! :)/ May need to rummage through them & select a few, but yeah, pretty clothes tags are definitely among them! :)
Also some pretty pens or such.. from my youth or so, or given.. (unfortunately it seems impossible to get some of them reused)
Bin 101 is the special depository for Almost Mrs Average's pet hates in the world of waste. Things that are too good to be condemned to landfill, but not good enough for recycling... or silly things, annoying little things, frustrating big things that shouldn't be thrust on us in the first place.
Don't let Almost Mrs Average just whimper in her own madness. Join in. Register your pet hates in the comments below and if they get selected, the public can vote on whether they should be allowed in Bin 101.
