I just purchased a couple packs of various underclothing. Nothing fancy—t-shirts are on the list. It must be longer than I thought since the last time I bought these sorts of things—they are apparently now perishable. I say this because both packages feature “Reclosable Bag.” And the advertising doesn’t lie. One can, indeed, open the bag, remove a single item, and “reclose” the bag. There’s a flap with adhesive just for that purpose.
This seems absurd to me. To the extent that one might need to remove a single t-shirt from the package of four, I don’t really see the advantage of sealing the bag back up. And while we’re at it, why would anyone need to remove a single t-shirt? Don’t most people dump their new things into the laundry to wash when they first get it? It’s just weird.
