Clipper tea - Green vs Sleep Easy

The packets are the same size, yet one contains 25 bags, the other only 20.  That is 25% less.

Is this really Green tea? Can they Sleep Easy?  Not in my book

Yogi Tea

Is the packet half full or half empty?  Check this out, 2 new packets of Yogi Tea, but the contents of both actually fit in one box.  No trickery involved.  But doesn't the printing inside the box look lovely, it makes me think the tea tastes better and justifies the ridiculously high price for 15 tea bags.

Good Earth ?


First impressions - great tea, clever perforations on box allows you to
stand it up on smallest end, the foil wrapped bags fall out when needed.



Only when I opened up a new pack did I realise just how much space was unused inside.
Then I realised the cheeky blighters only put 18 bags in a packet, not 20 like most companies.

Repackaging them 'head to toe' gives even more room.


Lets get scientific:
The box is approximately 130mm long, yet barely 90mm is needed


As you can see, the box can accommodate 50% more tea bags,
27 in a box rather than 18.  Someone is puling a fast one here.
Good Earth, there's room to do gooder

I'm going to grow my own mint and make my own, much nicer.

Would you like manufactures to fill their packets up with more products?
