Corn bags opening

Who's got the knack of opening the bags just by pulling the stitching and unzipping them? Always goes wrong for me!

always found it easy enough, as long as the cord is long enough .......sometimes its only short and you cant grab hold of it.

p.s. corn ive been using for the past 3 years comes in plastic, see through bags and is easy to open........i have had problems with the paper bags in the past sometimes, its harder to tear than plastic ive found , string can sometimes cut into your hands .

yeah when they are double stitched its like trying to get into nora battys drawers just cut them off below the stitch line now and into bins

I always found it a problem, got frustrated at times.

So started to just use a knife cut the top and put bag into bin.

The same with rabbit feed now, although I buy the best it is bulked out with rubbish the rabbits will not eat.

But I find the same with many of the containers today, food and medication for humans amongst them.

All done to make life easy, ???????.

Regards.

Part of that Kiss scenario thing etc I suggest Misty . Must add also never liked getting grain in those plastic type bags as many do. That suffocating factor I'm   coming into play for me . & take care.

Used the source of feed since 1979, for all animals I kept, and still do.

Started buying beans by the ton shared with a friend, all in brown paper sacks, never any problems.

Then the commercial boys started using plastic for everything, polishing the goodness from the feed and then promoting aids to win to replace that lost in polishing.

Maize and other corn was also originally in paper sacks and with no problems still had all the goodness left in the grain.

NO KISSING KNACKERED, people will start talking.

I always make it a bit of a challenge to open the bag with the cord

Will send you some of the containers holding my medication and the tomato sauce and other things like salt etc; in eating establishments not to mention all kinds of bottles, many of which you need a degree in engineering to open.

Keep you happy for hours Mark.

Regards.

Had a fight here the other day Mark between my missus & myself as who was the most useless etc as neither of us could open the plastic lid/seal on the plastic milk carton I'm we use, for our cup of tea      .

The corn merchant showed me how to do it years ago, obviously for him like shelling peas, I think it was go to the longest cord run , unpick the inside cord, hold this and pull the outside cord? Something as straight forward as that
It just unzipped in a second, but it,'s scissors for me, every time!
