Go get these rubber bands you will not be disappointed very very flexible they do not break can withstand very long stretches have a million and one uses you can use them for rubber band guns and it works very well the kids can make crafts with them or wrap up newspapers posters or even your hair can be tied up with them
There was only one partially open bag left in the bin but multitudes of others in there bins. It was necessary to buy it at the time and no others in the store in stock. Could have ordered a bag as so told by the sales clerk but as I said prior it was necessary to have. I'm surprised that there wasn't some one or thing alerting them as to how low they had gotten on this product.
I purchased these to make a craft - specifically to make identifying tags for reusable insulated cups. I'm certain these are suitable for binding together stacks if paper. But my use has been on the craft end - and they are ideal for this purpose!
These rubber bands are well made. I put them to the test this Christmas with holding my cards in piles of 50. Not one broke or snapped because of the load. I only had to use one rubber band per package!
I use the rubber bands all the time to contain my power and other cords that I use with my portable computer portable projector portable printer portable scanner etc. I also use them to contain the extra length for extension cords. These are just the right width and provide just the right amount of tension to secure the cords into a bundle without overstressing the cables. They are also an attractive neutral color. They come in a convenient palst package that has a "zip-lock type" top to contain the extra rubber bands that you don't use. I recommend this product.
