Huge Rubber Bands have many uses

These are incredibly useful for so many things. I mostly use them to hold related files or papers together. And I can color-code the paper bundles because the rubber bands come in several colors. And they last a long time. When I come back a year--or two or five years--later the bundles are still intact.
These are the very best rubber bands. I give them as gifts. They are so sturdy and I take little bundles of mail to the post office and the clerk loves to reuse the rubber bands.
Shopping at Staples was quick and easy and the items we were looking for was simple to find among all the many things stocked in the store. The sales clerk was friendly and quickly found how to let us use the coupon we had received in the mail. I had a concern how the address was on the coupon and this sales clerk was kind and assured me he would take care of the problem no fuss or ado he simply cared for it & made our check out go without any delay. The parking lot was clear and close to the store so all in all a good shopping experience. Thank you
These bands can hold lots of papers and folders together. You can stretch them without breaking them. We've bought them frequently over the years (we've got a lot of things to bundle together) and they don't seem to wear out or get crinkley and break over time. The color variety is nice but doesn't seem to have any affect on the holding power and we haven't tried to use them for color coding but you could do that. I even used one to hold pieces together for a superglue repair fix on an awkard shape and it held fine.
When you have lots of files that need to be kept together these rubber bands are the greatest. They are large enough to get the job done yet they are not so tight that you are going to get "snapped" when you remove it to use the file. I use them to keep me organized.
