I was recently working at a client’s home, organizing her office area and I needed rubber bands.  She had none in her house! How is that possible? I use rubber bands all the time. They work so much better than those dreaded plastic chip clips that ultimately break.  They help keep tissue paper that is rolled up nice and neat so it doesn’t come undone.  I use it on the lid of jars to help me grab ahold of it to better to get the tough top pried off.

I don’t even pay for my rubber...
