Since companies have been manufacturing and selling products to consumers, the race has been on to be the biggest and the best… or at least appear to be.

Years ago, companies thought nothing of sending out mass mailings of their massive product catalogs to anyone with an address that accepted mail.  Just about everybody had a Sears or J.C. Penney catalog in the hall closet.  Sometimes it was used for shopping and sometimes it was used as a booster seat for a small child at the kitchen table.
