Damn, I've been buying stuff from Uline for the past few years, not knowing about this. Thanks for posting. I won't be buying from them in the future if I can help it.

Uline, more like Poo-line, am I right?
I've never liked Uline. Their prices always seem to be way higher than they should be. The only reason to ever use them is for a product you can't find anywhere else - and even then it's worth taking a second or third look first.
And making sure the product is a need rather than a want. I have significantly reduced spending since canceling Amazon.
While it doesn’t say much for “previous-me”, I am being more deliberate in my purchases as I look for Canadian options.
