Ten uses for red rubber bands

In the UK one of their papers is in trouble because it uses wide red rubber bands to keep it intact, and people keep dropping and littering the ground. so the BBC is sponsoring a contest on what to do with all those rubber bands.


1. Use them as cheap Kabbalah wrist bands and save $26...

2. Use them to build a giant red rubber band monument and erect it in your town Park

3. Fire them at political candidates, at those giving overlong speeches at formal dinners, or at you minister when he gets boring.

4. Fire the across the room, and consider picking them up as the latest trendy exercize plan.

5.Tie them on your trees and bushes to celebrate Chinese New Year

6.Make a red rubber band ball. This is similar to a tan rubber band ball. But red.

7.Encourage your kids to collect them. That will keep them busy, and is cheaper than collecting stamps.

If you are a patient/obsessive person you might consider this option

8. Use them to enrage bulls. Ignore those people who think that bulls are colour blind and therefore just as likely to be annoyed by a tan coloured band.

Coin a new simile - "like a red rubber band to a bull".

9. Give your child's Barbie or Barbie-style doll a fetching red belt, or a Rambo-style red headband for that matter.

10. Gather them and sell them back to the Royal Mail as a protest for harming the environment.
