If you are like me my children and I always have a project for the holidays or for school that needs glue. I buy the multi-pack so that we have one can take one to school or leave in a back pack and still have one at home.
If you plan on keeping these around for a little bit of time think again. Upon opening I found at least two sticks hard as a rock. I took them back to the store and got replacements. However less than 9 months later 4 more of them are hard as a rock. Not to mention that there isn't a whole lot of glue in a tube. I use them to glue recipe clippings into a scrapbook and one stick will last for just 4 pages. They also get very very tacky and become hard to use after you open them. Next time I'll just buy the name brand for a little more as these really aren't economical in the long run.
I have my students use this glue to stick handouts in their Engineering note books and it has been wonderful. It is easy to use sticks better and lasts long.
