Complaint #1 is the unnecessary large size of some these compared to the product held inside.

Our landfills would probably appreciate it if this type of packaging was toned down or not used at all.

That's actually done for security reasons. Hiding an 8" x 11" package under your jacket is a lot harder to do than an 1" x 1" package. Even if you steal them currently you're getting like 2 at most 3 tops, whereas if you could just stuff the usb stick in your pocket you could wipe out an entire section without your pockets looking much bigger.
