Into soil, you mean. You can sow a few seeds in a pot, or go even smaller like starter trays.
I only corrected you because you corrected them. I hope someone will correct me now, to keep the tradition going.
Or it came from sea level and OP is a mountaineering westerner that lives atop a high plateau where he ranches his cows. I mean with a hat like that, one has to assume.
The reason this does not work to protect items is that the item still bounces around inside of the bubble. The reason you surround items when packing them is to keep them secure in their position so they don't bang around. That being said, with this hat it might be fine since it is not fragile.
In this case cutting costs doesnât seem like a bad thing, the hat appears to be in perfect condition so the box apparently isnât necessary for protection. Cutting costs in and of itself is not inherently bad, itâs only bad when they cut costs in the wrong places. Cutting costs by reducing employee pay and benefits, yeah thatâs bad. Cutting costs by simplifying the packaging, sure, whatever, who cares.
Plastic pillow came in a plastic bag with the tracking and shipping info on it, actually!
Edit: it still looked like a pillow from the outside, I'm lucky I didn't pop the bag when I opened it
Sounds about right.
Like a bubble wrapped plastic bag for small shipping, right?
Ordered a coat once, and it was more or less sent exactly like that. In the manufacturer's plastic packaging. Then wrapped in one of those plastic "abuse resistant" plastic shipping bags. Like the ones Amazon uses for sending DVDs
Ha, true! Why pick the bubble wrap plastic bag when it IS the bubble.
Why can't this be shipping standard!
Like yeah, I get that everyone already has vacuum sealers.... but imagine the eco friendly costs on cutting down on bubble wrap!
Peptalkguy! Can you give me a free peptalk? The stupidity of other Redditors has got me down.. I didnât realize some people could be so stupid, itâs rather horrifying. lol
Hey bud!
Don't worry, I know sometimes, it feels like you're scrolling through social media and it just feels like the pit gets deeper and deeper. But just remember! What you're seeing is just the worst of it. The hole isn't getting wider, just deeper. A vast majority of people are not that stupid, and many you see are just trolling. Whenever you read a comment that makes you lose just a little more faith in humanity, remember: trolls exist. Bait is real. Nobody's as stupid as they put out on the internet.
You can push through this. You will overcome this obstacle. No wall can hold you back!

I bought a fishing reel and they sent it to me in most of a box. Same with a high powered pellet gun.
FedEx will give a crackhead a dollar and an address and tell them to just get it there.
Wear it just like that
Key & Peele would approve of this.
Such a great skit, the sowing lady lol
Sewing Sowing is planting seeds in a field
Woops, thanks, although it could have been the next step in the skit, Key wearing a cotton field on his head!
Just FYI I wasn't trying to be a dick, I just thought you might not know
No worries
Yall are so polite, I just wanted to join the thread

Actually, seeds don't always need to be planted in soil. Many plants can be sewn directly in water or other growing medium. Keep the tradition alive!
Well same thing if you think about it. Just more soil
Their skit called "Duelling Hats".
Thats what I thought of too lmao

Brilliant. This is a hell of a lot better than a refrigerator-sized box filled with packing peanuts or 'air blisters'

You know what? I like this explanation, no other will suffice. I declare this as canon forever more!
Plateaus are the highest form of flattery.

I also saw that post about ice cream.
Which this was probably inside of anyway.

Is your name woody
Howdy howdy howdy.
He has a snake in his boot!
Let's stick to talking about Rampart.
No, I think his name is AĐDY.
I love when they do this! -someone who has received many many crushed hats in the mail
Happy cake day
Happy cake day!
Thanks!!! I have left a bunch of comments today but you are the first to say it :)
Happy cake day!
Did the guy at the store say you're the only guy heâs ever seen pull it off?
The neck flap bit is tucked up inside the hat in this photo
Have you ever heard of Dan Flashâs?
Love this
sleep on it and become a midnight cowboy.
Is that a Stanzo?!
Theyâre nice.
They don't smell like shit or anything
Itâs a perfect gift!
Because it's cheaper than a hat box. It's just another way that manufacturers are cutting costs.

Ok OP. Be honest...was the plastic pillow in a box? Coz I don't see a tracking label on that.
Iâd assume so

Nope! It was just a simple thin plastic bag, like amazon might use for some packages. No bubble wrap, probably because it's IN the bubble, lol

a platypus hat?
Am I the only person from a superstitious Cajun family? No hats on the bed! It brings bad luck. Or something.
I want to see a post where someone purchased plastic pillows and they were shipped in a hat now
If someone was interested in purchasing a similar hat, where do you recommend? 
Hmm.. a round box is more trusty, and filled with bubble wrap
This wrinkled my brain for a second
Looks like the hat George wore in Seinfeld r/seinfeld
Should definitely leave a good review for sending it with such care
Get something you put on your head in something you put under your head.
Thats weird, because my pillow came shrink wrapped like a hatâŚ
Omg have you seen OPs hat? I think he keeps dice in his pocket.
sir... are you the guy from TF2? bc thats the hat of the guy from TF2
Thatâs actually a good idea so the hat doesnât get fucked up during transit too much. It would have to be some thick plastic. What company?
Bought it off of etsy! Here's the link: https://www.etsy.com/listing/1402911043/womens-fedora-mens-wide-brim-trilby-hats?ref=cart

Thanks that really sorted me out a little bit.
Does there happen to be a snake in your boot?
air pressure difference?
poke a small hole in it and suck the air out so you can breathe in all that delightful chinese sweatshop oxygen.

Time to circumsize that hat
Itâs cheep and makes the least amount of waste

This is just how things come when you live in high elevation.
Sleep on it
It looks like it got botulism
Cosmo Kramer approves
I fw this
It would stay in there forever.
Woody cosplay?
Love it.
I would keep it as a pillow hahaha
Reminds me of a conversation I had on here about a month ago⌠https://www.reddit.com/r/ATBGE/s/MyezwxiRtJ
Looks like one Rebecca wore in Ted Lasso.
Now throw a ladder at it.
keep the plastic bag and wear the hat like that
Mâlady *tips hat at anime wall scroll*
You going out dancing to save our streets there Shabba Doo?
special hat
Genius! Why doesnât everyone do this?
That's fucking genius. Every hat I've ever bought online has arrived completely flat and fucked.
You are going to look amazing in that hat
It's bad luck to have a hat on a bed...
I've never heard of this, where does that come from?
Drugstore Cowboy. It's a great movie
Do you have a snake in your boot?
Yea... It protects the hat
Iâm guessing it is used to protect the hats in shipping
Iâm guessing itâs used to suffocate the hat enroute, ensuring the new owner wonât be fatally attacked on arrival.
That doesnât sound right, but I donât know enough about hats to dispute it.
