There have been funny noises coming from the Frugi warehouse this week. Jigsaws have been used and sandpaper has been spotted.
 
You see, the warehouse lads have been planning, scheming and generally talking in tongues about the possibility of getting a box wrapping machine, for all of the overseas trade orders that we have to package up so well.
 
Great idea… Errr…how much? CRIKEY.!!!!
 
However, our Derek came up with a plan involving a Lazy Susan.
 
(Obviously I was somewhat concerned about employing such a person, in whatever capacity they had in mind!)
 
However, Derek’s mum brought one in and we all then discovered what one was. (Thanks Derek’s Mum)
 
So, a new bench was purchased and a lazy Susan type contraption has been assembled with a hand wrapping device bolted to it.
 
Heath Robinson would be proud.
 
And voila. A box wrapping machine, type of thing has evolved.
 
Total cash saving = a small Fortune
Total time spent wrapping boxes = much less
 
Well done Derek
