As someone who grew up poor, I have the hardest time tossing cardboard. I built so many cardboard and masking tape toys, including entire forts and landscapes for my hand me down (donated) action figures.

I didn't even grow up poor, but the price of boxes is way higher than I thought it was. Its hard to justify just throwing something away like that.

That’s actually a useful skill, and it’s good for the environment (and pocketbook/wallet) because you’re up-cycling something most people would just throw away.
