There was some news today on how as a result of Remembrance Day coming up here and in lights of that recent shooting event here in Canada the demand for poppies are higher than usual. As a result, there is a shortage. That made me wonder, are there actually very few people who would store items like these as opposed to simply throwing them away in the garbage after the event is over?<\/p>\n
I always have a habit of storing away items like these where I think they can be re-used. For example, at times I would even keep those Chinese New Year lucky red envelopes as I figure it would be easy to re-use. But for things like these poppies, is there any different between this where you would attend to use each year and say a special tie for your suit? The only thing I can think of is that a poppy is usually so cheap that most people figure it is no big deal to just get a new one each year.<\/p>\n
Makes me wonder how much money we use up each year for items like these as a result of not wanting to store them away for future use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
