dear click clack,



Dear Click Clack Containers,

I am sorry I made disparaging remarks about your costliness the other day, comparing you to a Japanese square watermelon and the like. I now can fully appreciate your quality airtight seals and your fun-to-use clicky clacky snap-shut handles. You have to understand where I am coming from. I live in the Greenpoint section of Brooklyn, which is full of dollar stores. I am afraid that I have been conditioned over the past couple of years to expect to pay just one dollar for anything I want. I now realize that quality sometimes costs more, and it is worth it to spend a little more to get long-range pleasure from a purchase.

Today I bought couscous from C-Town and it came in a cardboard box. I had some room with the ramen, so I just stored the couscous right in the original box. But I have peace of mind knowing that my foodstuffs are safe and sealed.

Thank you again for your great product.

Sincerely,

Elaine Perlov

    In India 'Dollar Stores' are just about catching up...I love checking it out once in a while:-)

    But you are right, quality comes at an extra cost:-)

    Will drop by again:-)
