I expect anything they saved on reduced packaging costs would be lost to
increased shoplifting. If the merchandise was more easily concealable
the price might even go up.

Hi Bipin:
In preparation for our trip, I bought some memory cards, and was
appalled at the packaging waste as well—so much so I photographed it.
Consider the packaging on the left and the actual product size on the
right!

When my husband and I started recycling, excessive packaging become
VERY apparent, since all the paper and plastic headed to our recycling
bin—at least there is that recourse for consumers.
Cheers, Christine
