Sometimes it's due to the battery shipping label that's required for lithium batteries. They need a box big enough to fit it as it's a fixed size and needs to fit on one side of the box.

It’s only 5" square at most, though. You don’t need a microwave sized box for that.

For some reason it didn't click how oversized the box is. More likely they ran out of smaller ones then, or some shitty algorithm said this was the "most economical" box.

You’re totally right. I’m guessing it’s from Amazon, the company that thought sending us bulk bag breakfast cereal in an unpadded shipping bag was a good idea. We now have enough free corn flake breading for years, though!
