Waste Not, Want Not

March 13, 2009

Word that disgraced former Merrill Lynch CEO John Thain dropped
$1,400 on a wastebaske
t for his office struck us as, frankly, a
complete waste.


In future, Mr. Thain may want to consider one these affordably chic
options for his rubbish:

Umbras
Metalla Can
($18, pictured) is simple and elegant plus we love the
playful red pop.

This Crate
and Barrel walnut waste can
($44.95) is meant for the washroom but
we think it works just as well for the boardroom.

Want the classic garbage can but fit for an office? Try IKEAs
Knodd
($16.99). Even Oscar the Grouch is a fan.

These sheer, semi-circular Pablo
Medina Wastebaskets
($52) are perfect desk-siders to store your used
paper until recycling day.

But enough trash talk for one day.
