chem1st Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 What alternate uses do you have for the blue box? That is, supposing you use it to recycle paper. This old dear uses it as a bed for her cat, http://www.thestar.co.uk/letters/Blue-box-Nice-bed-for.6537275.jp They come in handy for storing kids toys. Or as stepping stools to reach the highest shelf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jane2008 Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Not me personally, but I know someone who uses them as planters. They are easy to move about to the right spot depending on the weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmilyM Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 I used it to collect apples from my trees. I also used it upside down as a seat once when I was dying my hair and couldn't put my glasses on so I could sit closer to the TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ab6262 Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Isn't it more responsible to just use the box for recycling? it would have been more responsible if the council had actually asked people what would be a good idea instead of riding roughshod over the taxpayers and implementing something that is patently usless for the intended purpose and at what cost???? to said council tax payer?
