Coffins

It would be a bit of a scam if they .. you know .. tipped out the contents before burning and recycled the box back to the funeral directors ..
 
It's something I've never thought of.... Then again its a valid one🤔

It is a lot of money just to go up in smoke.

What is the point in paying a small fortune for a coffin for it to be burnt during the cremation, isn't this just a crazy waste of money?

I've advised my family that I'm happy to be wrapped in cardboard and taped up.

Is this to take place now or only after your passing? (asking for an executor).
 
I could kind of understand the cost if it was like Egypt where the box would just end up buried or in a tomb and last forever, at least there's some sort of value in that, but here it's burned within a few days or thrown in a wet hole, it does seem like a waste.

I would be happy in a box made out of some old pallets, would be good for loading me in the back of the hearse on a forklift too. The arts and crafty types should get on to making those instead of benches and signs, they would make a killing.
