Here in Canada West, one can access a near-infinite supply of cardboard 
boxes (boci?)
by visiting one's nearest LCBO store! Our liquor stores have been leaving 
the cartons
in which their merchandise arrives for their customers for MANY years...and 
most of
them are picked up by folks who are moving house...!
