Visual html joke.

Actually, a very practical use is to slip it over the strap peg (and of course, over the strap) on your guitar or bass. Your strap is almost guaranteed to remain on the peg.

These bread bag clips make wonderful "mini-shuriken" as well!

If you break one of the 2 "claws" off, you can then hook the remaining claw on the tip of your middle finger. Then, by flicking your middle finger with your thumb, you'll send the clip spinning through the air fast (REALLY fast) and far. It's a great cheap toy, but a bit dangerous -- it's *really* easy to nail somebody in the eye as they travel quite fast and are difficult to see coming. Be warned... any kid you show this too will be quite a menance.

Guitar pick. Just use a nail clipper and file to smooth the corner edges.

every kid in my neighbourhood (hull, uk) collected these on their bmx/budgie brake cable, it wasnt uncommon to see hundreds on one bike

Thanks for the link! (My kids will love the suggestion to hang them on their bike spokes!)

i used to use them as a plectrum, a bit hard but??

my mom used to save them for my brother and I, so we could use them as guitar picks.

You could wright on them and mark cables to orginize them !
