Answer: 227,000 miles. A huge amount of wrapping paper is used in the UK each year! Try the scrunch test before recycling:. 🎁Scrunch the paper into a ball, if it stays scrunched it's likely recyclable. 🎁If it bounces back, it probably contains foil/plastic and can't be recycled

The answer is glittery wrapping paper!. Only wrapping paper without foil or glitter can be recycled. Use the scrunch test to check: if the paper stays crumpled in a ball after you scrunch it, it's likely recyclable♻️
