Charles Leonard Rubber Bands, 3/8 Ounce Bags, Amber, Assorted Sizes (56381)

Okay, these may seem like a random thing to buy if you don't have some sort of large project or use in mind but, I just got tired of rummaging around in my junk drawer for a rubber band if I needed one and sometimes coming up short. After decades of this frustration, I have solved the problem. Who knew it was this easy. I bought this little inexpensive bag of rubber bands and put them in a small, clear plastic container with a lid that snaps closed and fits perfectly in my junk drawer. Wish I had thought of this back in 1993.

I never thought I’d write a love letter to a variety pack of rubber bands, but this is everything I never knew I needed, until now. They come in all sorts of sizes (hence "variety pack"), which means I’ve been rubber-banding everything in sight like some kind of domestic superhero. Mail? Rubber-banded. Rogue pens? Rubber-banded. A small army of action figures? You better believe they’re held together like a tan-colored SWAT team.These little stretchy legends snap with the perfect amount of resistance; enough to do their job, but not enough to take your eye out (unless you’re launching Skittles across your kitchen, which I do not officially recommend… but also definitely did). They're the classic tan shade, which screams, “I’m here to get stuff done,” without needing flashy colors or glitter. My desk is organized, my junk drawer is tamed, and I feel like the CEO of Elastic Office Supplies, Inc. Honestly, I’ve never felt more in control of my life, and it’s all thanks to a humble box of tan rubber bands. Buy them. Smell them - reminds you of long, hot days on the basketball courts. Stretch your limits. Live the dream.

I was blown away by the quality of these rubber bands I can tell they will last me a long time for many uses.

In its relaxed state, the largest band is 1¾" in diameter. Stretched out to the full extent, it's about 9". This is a bit smaller than I expected.

Always need these for something so why not get a large quantity with a variety of sizes

I've always purchased the cheap, flimsy rubber bands at the dollar stores. I needed a thicker, stronger, wider rubber band to remove a stripped screw and ordered these. When I opened the package I was immediately pleased with the thickness, strength and durability of these rubber bands. The quality is so good, I was able to use one as an o-ring seal for my shake maker. Great quality, excellent price.

Rubber bands, not much to say, good quality

Nice assortment of rubber bands but will probably need to get a pkg of some larger ones too but this is nice to have.
