No longer will we be subjected to the tyranny of excess plastic, single use tape dispensers.

We run out of tape.  I go to Fred Meyer, the place where I probably spend 80% of funds.  Because they have everything.  But you know what they don’t have?  Tape dispensers.  So, being out of tape, and needing tape, I once again purchase those plastic not-reusable clear tape dispensers.

Repeat.  For nine years.

But I have finally purchased tape dispensers!  One for me, one for Matt and one for the common area.IMG_5881

Free at last!

  1. I take it you use tape a lot? What do you use it for? I think we’ve had the same “dispensable” roll of tape for at least five years, haha.

    1. I don’t think of our tape use as excessive, but tape certainly doesn’t last 5 years. I know we use it for wrapping presents, putting the Christmas Cards on the wall, and I usually find myself using it to secure letters that are perhaps too big for their envelopes. Matt has a whole thing where he prints out cards for a game he likes and that seems to take tape also.

      I think what mostly bugged me was repeating the waste cycle every time. So that made it more present in my mind.
