Here in Switzerland free rubber bands are not in abundance. Heck, we have to *buy* string to bundle our recycling. And we now have one rubber band in our household. And LGG had claimed it. We do have a collection of reusable clips to close up bags of food, but sometimes you just want a rubber band. Every once in a while I'll reclaim the lone rubber band, but somehow it always migrates back to LGG's room.

Free Rubber Bands
I know that I can buy them in the store, but I don't want to have to. The thick purple ones on the broccoli, the thin beige ones on the newspaper, the red ones attached to a flyer on the garage or front door. We used to have a huge collection of rubber bands because I could never throw away a perfectly good rubber band. And besides, Little Geek Girl would use them to play with her toys.

One of our trips to the US included the purchase of a ball of rubber bands from Office Depot. It was the first time I had ever purchased rubber bands.
Eventually you too will give in to the lure of the rubber band ball...
I'm in the process of acquiring treasures for a September care package...I shall include rubber bands! What other small comforts can I enclose?...I'd be happy to make a run to Trader Joe's or Nugget market for non-persishable cravings...
