@Linkat,
My dad once when I was a kid - he was a funny man - well - we used to have garbage service when I was a kid. You threw your food scraps into a metal bin that was buried in the yard - it had a lid you could step on and you tossed the garbage (not trash) in the garbage pail. The garbage man would come during the week and get rid of it.
Well one winter just during Christmas break, the garbage lid froze solid. We started to have a pile up of garbage. So my dad came up with this brilliant idea. We kept the garbage in the old card board milk cartons before we tossed them in the pail. Well he took the multiple ones we had that we could not put in the pail and placed them in a box. He then wrapped the box in Christmas paper.
He worked a couple of week nights at this liquor store (now I grew up in a city that had some areas there were not the nicest by any means) - and this liquor store was on the cusp on this area. Well he placed it outside the liquor store.
Someone did open it but they left it there - my father's hope was that they would run off it and just to later find it was garbage.
