Do you ever look at an empty box and go "that's a nice looking box. Better not throw that out. That'll come in handy some day". You don't know what you're gonna use it for yet but it's there just in case.
My kids do that with every single box. We have too many boxes.
welcome to adulthood
I see you have seen my box collection in the garage
What I tend to do at work is think to myself "I'll be good and get rid of all these empty boxes and ditch the clutter", and then 48 hours later be turning the place upside down trying to find a box to ship something to one of our other sites in.
Glad I saved the GPU boxes from 2007. Back when they had the tacky art on the box.
Welcome to middle age.
I threw out a really nice hounds tooth paper bag that a DJs gift card came in. Nice thick paper. Gonna sit in a drawer for ever.
For the empties mate.
They go back into the boxes they came from. 👍
I'm like that with cardboard tubes like the ones we get when the giant rolls of baking paper and foil run out at work.
I have been known to keep the really hard ones that come with wrapping paper. If you get a coat hanger and mold it you can can slip a dusting glove onto the wire and bend it, attach it to the tube, you can dust things higher up without getting on a chair.
