Nobody forced the 48 happy bunnies to pay up.

 

Why aint people moaning about all the plastic reindeer, polar bears and santas in the shops. They are total crap being sold on the back of a religious holiday.

 

Maybe some people on here should stop wining about enterprise and get thinking of their own ideas.

 

Hes made a fair bit more doing this that he would have done selling nicked chainsaws down the pub - and causing no distress at all.

 

I know which business I would encourage -

I had a customer in the showroom last summer who had inherited a device to roll newspapers into tight rolls, she swore by it.

 

A few weeks later I had some out of date A4 size catalogues to dispose of, so I rolled them up in 4s, taped up with a bit of Gaffa tape. They did burn surprisingly well but left a massive quantity of ash behind. About 3 times the normal volume when burning wood, cant rally work out why that should be.

Even pulp for newsprint has some sizing agents to give it wet and dry strength, these will increase the ash if they have inorganic chemicals in them. Glossy paper is much worse as it uses china clay as a filler.
