All the Amazons are stacked on the right. Judging by their size and the comment about weight I suspect they contain can goods. Probably something to do with food distribution for the needy or homeless.

CORRECTION: After viewing the video.. the lady is opening the boxes delivered and placing the contents on the left side so that one that says snacks must have been inside a larger amazon box. My mistake.

I did that with our moving boxes when I put in new beds. It worked really well. Luciferous Sep 2021 #11

Yes. From what I've read, it helps the soil, helps garden retain moisture & greatly reduces weeding Kaleva Sep 2021 #13

I try, and I am fairly certain they just end up in a landfill anyway Amishman Sep 2021 #15

For some reason I thought about baling hay as a teenager on the farm NickB79 Sep 2021 #12

Tossing 50 + pound bales in a super hot haybarn was good times! Kaleva Sep 2021 #14

Yeah, I did that too as a teenager. honest.abe Sep 2021 #18

been there done that, have the mild hernia to prove it Amishman Sep 2021 #20

But, were you expected to bail a field in 10 minutes? yardwork Sep 2021 #21

No, but handling 300 bales in two hours would not be unreasonable. Klaralven Sep 2021 #22

Its been a long time but I think I was throwing a bale every 15 seconds or so.. honest.abe Sep 2021 #28

I'm having trouble thinking of a good reason why someone would order that much all at one time. tanyev Sep 2021 #23

either an addiction. or a business ran out of the home fescuerescue Sep 2021 #27
