So I think that someone, out in the world somewhere, should stockpile used shipping supplies, and then sell them in lots on eBay. I would buy something like that. I don't have enough stuff coming in to be able to do that myself, and I don't have room to store much, so if it's not getting used, it gets gone.
There are of course, the 100% recycled options, and I am totally okay with purchasing stuff like that. I just don't want to spend money on new stuff if I can spend it on trash. You know what I mean?
In the meantime, I am working with what I've got during the Christmas shipping rush. I'm pretty close to making a functional shipping package out of a clear food container, but it hasn't yet come to that.
These vintage Holly Hobbie ornaments were found in a bag (9 total) for a dollar :) I took a trip out of town late last week when my favorite store was closed, and I still needed to feed the monster.

love the ornaments. i have a bunch of envelopes at home - all different sizes and shapes, from hallmark. a million years ago when i was a crafts instructor at a summer camp, i needed old greeting cards for a project. a woman connected to the camp was working for a hallmark store that was closing out, so she brought me boxes and boxes of new cards with envelopes. the cards are all gone, but i'm still using the envelopes. i wonder if you could go to a card place and ask if they have envelopes that have been left over that you could use?
