At some point every business aiming for a wide market has to look past the myths that media has perpetuated about millennials. It's the age group born from 1980 to 1996, often treated by marketers as "hipsters" who only care about "what's happening now." But like past generations, a certain percentage of millennials have a taste for nostalgia, which is why they embrace Fancy Tins.

People who appreciate quality and status symbols will support luxury brands if the right messages are embedded in the packaging.

Fancy tins are also common with cosmetics products and many other products throughout the year.
