Disposable cameras were an invention of Fuji and Kodak in the mid 1980s. They are smart to keep in the glove box in the event of an accident; less risky to take on vacation; and a great favor for capturing all those wedding moments. This is common among disposable cameras on the market. Disposable cameras are fun, cheap and are pretty indestructible, unlike polariods or digital cameras.
