I purchased the Staples Economy Rubber Bands Size #64 to use to secure the lids of shoeboxes both cardboard and plastic These shoeboxes were for Samaritan's Purse Operating Christmas Child. Two rubber bands were required for each shoebox. This size and width were perfect to fit securely around the boxes. The rubber bands had to be taken on and off ocassionally and never once did I have a rubber band that broke. Rubber bands we have used in the past often broken causing inconvenience and extra cost just to replace them. I'll use these Staples bands next time!
Instead of getting what I really needed a small bag of assorted rubber bands Staples offered only a HUGE bag of one-size rubber bands. So I get to pay more for what I don't need. Thanks for thinking of small business Staples.
Truly wonderful Rubber Bands. The size is perfect for storing on your wrist for easy access and the stretch wil hold anything from 2 cans of deodorant to 6 or 7 travel size umbrellas nicely. The 1/4 lb. bag is resealable and can slip into a lunch box or bowl on the refrigerator without hinder. I’m considering another 1/4 lb for my boat. Highly recommended.
