Others my know this - I wasn't thinking. The goal - to order "like duct tape" with the images of my nieces/nephews on it so I could use it for gift wrap for Christmas.  Tried one during a deal - image was good, but packaging tape requires a lot more work than I was expecting.  Needed to measure for the package, cut, and then use a sponge (included w/purchase) to wet down tape and then stick to package.  This was a very time consuming process for what I was using it for.  Tape was about 90% at staying stuck - and if you're using it to do a quick sealed box - may be better for you, but for me. Not so much.

Packaging Tape is NOT the same a duct tape
