Alliance Rubber 07800 Non-Latex Brites File Bands, Colored Elastic Bands, 50 Count (Pack of 1) (7" x 1/8", Assorted Bright Colors in Resealable Bag),Blue/Orange/Pink

I worked in an outdated company, where my sole job was to digitize years and years and YEARS worth of paper documents and bring the company into the Now Times™️. These rubber bands were perfect for binding stack after stack of ancient scrolls and tomes together as they awaited their inevitable end (via shredder).Due to COVID, I began working from home. My office moved to my comfy house desk, and my coworkers became..... well, cats. And if cats love anything, it's playing with trash not meant for them! Thus, my giant rubber bands became giant cat toys. I would slingshot these bad boys down the hall, and my coworkers would LOSE IT. Rubber bands quickly became Marshall's go-to toy! He'd carry them around, sleep with them, hide them for later. It was all good fun!But... I felt the need to hire a new employee. Eugene came fully vetted and his previous employers sang his praises! I thought it was a perfect match. However, they failed to mention his one flaw. Eugene likes to eat everything. EVERYTHING. If it will fit in his throat, he's going to swallow it. Even metal! In the days since this fateful incident, I've caught him with knives, wrenches, scissors, and screws in his mouth. Just walking around with KNIVES. An HR nightmare.Unfortunately, not armed with this knowledge, I let him go about his business unsupervised. I caught him chewing on one of Marshall's precious rubber bands... Oh no! Never experiencing a cat actually GNAWING on the rubber band, I decided it would be best to take all of them and put them away.But..... do you remember how Marshall liked to stash them???Marshall uncovered a rubber band, offering it to his new friend. Eugene then chewed the band until it was one long SEVEN INCH STRAND. Then, I imagine, he ate it Lady and the Tramp style. Except instead of a cute little kiss, he was greeted with tummy aches and surgery. All of this happening within his first week of employment!!!The vets pulled out the entire 7 inch strand, fully intact, as though it wasn't just sitting in stomach acid for who knows how long. Amazing! The color was still a vibrant blue. Astounding!Although these rubber bands are the best rubber bands I've ever owned, I sadly had to cut them up, throw them into a trash bag, throw the trash bag into the dumpster, and stand watch until the garbage truck hauled them away. I can no longer use hair ties - only thick fluffy scrunchies. My life has changed since Eugene came into my life, not necessarily always for the better, but his cute little face makes up for the fact that I can no longer keep my papers bound together.

Love these great quality, versatile rubber bands. Use them to band blankets, towels, books, boxes etc.

These rubber bands are color coded according to their size. That little bit of genius makes it quick and easy to spot and pick out a band that is the right size and strength for any particular application.I wish all elastic bands were color coded like this!They are pretty, too!

Nice bright colors. I use these rubber bands for family members to identify their drinking glasses/tumblers throughout the day. Especially handy when we have a big group over. The only "down" side to this particular pack is that some of the bands are super skinny. I have to say, none have broken, but I'd prefer that some of the skinniest bands were a bit thicker. I haven't used the bands much for typical rubber band purposes, that is to hold papers/items together, but those times I did, they worked well. I'd buy this item again due to the bright colors and overall quality.Here is a run down of thick vs thin band colors:Thicker bands are: dark purple & green (both about 1/8") , pink (only a few in the pack, these are the thickest at 1/4"), orange and yellow(about 1/16"), light blue (thinner than 1/16"). The light blue bands don't stretch much, could be used to hold plastic wrap around a small tumbler/container.If you need bright bands to hold smaller items together, this is a great pack. If you are looking for heavier duty bands to hold larger stacks of paper items, these probably are going to be too small for you.

I was grateful for these particular rubber bands. I have a severe allergy to latex, so these were great for situation. I used them to make popping boxes. They worked great. They are not heavy duty rubber bands. They are craft rubber bands. Price was good. Some of the rubber bands were broken. But for crafts, they were good.

Great for binding large amounts together. Very stretchy. great value

Love the different colors, sizes and thicknesses great for what I need and leave me with plenty of them. They are latex free as well. Will definitely buy more if needed.

Great value

Great rubber bands! Love the colours compared to the dull ones available in most stores. These are a large size and I've never had one break on me. Very handy to have on hand around the house.

We needed these for the office, mainly for placing around a file of papers. We’ve been searching for ages for this exact type.Great colours and good quality.

These are good rubber bands. They keep files together nicely. Bands are very durable and stretchy, not dry. Different sizes. All you need!

Excelente produto, conforme anunciado.

I used it to hold my books in groups together.
