Pop it in the box
http://youtu.be/E3rB_qx0wRM

The expression is taken from love actually
The guy who is gift rapping day
Pop it in the box. I know it means he puts it but what I want to know is the sense of it
It is not just put, I can sense a certain kind of movement from it. Can you explain what it is?

Also she says ready in the flashiest of flashes or something. What does that mean?

Kindly regards

Answer

Hi Lee,

You're right ,it just means put it in the box,  'pop' implies doing it quickly.

'Ready in a flash' means to get ready very quickly.

Good listening!

Answer

'Pop it in the box '  is the same as put it in the box, just a more heavily used expression in the UK.
