Let me get this straight. Here is the problem:
OFFICE PROBLEM: Shipping envelopes come in standard sizes – some are too small and others are much too big.
EASY IDEA: Pop Envelopes are shipping envelopes that expand on demand to fit larger items. The mailers grow in width and length, so they take up little space when being stored, but can accommodate large items.
Hmmm. Interesting problem. I wonder how she came up with the solution. Dr. Freud, would you have any ideas??
Biography
Lisa Trusiani Parker comes up with inventions by giving herself a problem to solve before going to sleep. Often, she finds a solution by the time she wakes up the next morning.
Oh, I see. Thank you Doctor.
I am voting for the Peanut Eater
