    Drip line thingies......

    I work in an Ortho clinic and some of the product we get comes in bags with these little plastic tie things. I get lots of these and have seen someone post they make good drip stopper devices. We just throw them in the trash.

    Anyhoo, I would be more than happy to provide these to anyone who may be interested.

    I also come across those blue goo ice/heat packages if there is any interest.

    Awesome! I have them on my bagel bags from the grocery store. I'll have to keep a couple to test them out.

    In Canada we use those things on our bread-bags. (and milk bags, but I know you Americans don't know about them.)
    I ride a recumbent.
    I like to HAM it up on the CW.
    I use Linux.
    I play go.
    Of course I sleep in a hammock!

    Hang On!

    I spent enough time in Canada to puzzle over those.

    I hear China has beer bags.

    We have our milk in cartons and bags (sold in threes). The bags are a little over a quart. We put them in what looks like a pitcher and them cut a little of the corner off to pour.

    Wrong, but not as wrong as wine in a box.
