Medicine spoons.....

Debate or rant ... ?
:soapbox:
I wondered about others opinions on including medicine spoons in every box of children's pain relief bottles... the dispenser syringe (in the orange branded box * whistles innocently*!! ) along with the cough mixture spoon recently got thrown into the draw to join the the rest of the mounting pile .... as I am loath to throw them into the bin just because of the plastic problem we all have in general!!

The only use I've found for the syringes is for water dropping onto kitchen roll paper and felt tip pens ... water spreading and seprerating the inks!! Paint squirting and for fun in the bath... but there's only so many you can use !! and you cant even 'play' the spoons on your knee ... so what to do with them all???

The thought of bundling them all up and posting them back to the company with a 're-use please' letter did cross my mind!

So ...... are the companies being over considerate in assuring we all have the correct dosing spoon ... or plain lazy in not providing a seperate box of free spoons at the shop counter for us to pick up?
