Like everybody else, I got a new shirt for Christmas. Red flannel. It was in a box that was wrapped with Christmas paper, in a plastic bag, held together by five pins, two pieces of stiff plastic, two pieces of cardboard and a strip of Scotch tape with the size on it. There was also a tissue paper wrapping inside the plastic bag, and a string tag. My guess is that half of the cost of the shirt was packaging.

Since my wife gave it to me, I know it was bought on sale, with a coupon, and a senior discount, with a further discount for using the store credit card. Maybe the packaging was two-thirds.
