Last week I decided it would be a good idea to finally get a mousemat with wrist support to….well, protect my wrists. Rather than pick up one in town I decided to get one from dabs.com and it arrived earlier this week in what can only be described as a huge box.

While I’m not exactly thinking of joining Greenpeace quite yet, it’s quite a shock to see such a small item wasted on a box that big. I know we will probably get the ‘reinforced structure‘ type excuse from many companies but I cant help but think companies like dabs should be ensuring their packaging follows some kind of eco-friendly guidelines.
