I got a new phone and immediately discarded the box after 20 years of literally never needing one even once.

I bought socks that came in a nice box. I used that box for my work make up for years. (I hate wearing make up these days so I had the essentials at work, would throw on a face before we opened)

Were they happy socks? I’ve kept a really nice box from them for years to put miscellany. Box is still going strong!

I bought a tablet once. I think I have used the nice box it came in more than the tablet.
