Scotch tape

[scrap-4-life]

Anyone buy extra tape around Christmas time and then seem to NEVER be able to find any when you need it??? Ugh! LOL

[howdee]

i know! doesn't that drive you crazy? i started putting a roll or two right in the christmas paper wrapping tote. that has helped me b/c my kids love to play with it.

I think that as soon as it gets in the house that my can opener (that always seems to come up missing) corrupts it and takes it out for a stroll................

[grifscap]

No kidding, last Sunday I lost three rolls in two hours, still can't find one roll.

[scraptag]

I think they are stuck to my missing socks!

It happens to me every year.

I think they are having a rendezvous with my good scissors and my husband's socks.

I have the same problem with scissors. We have MANY pairs in the house, but when I need a pair, they are all missing. I wonder if they go to a scissor party someplace?

[deerewife]

um, yep! It apparently is a hot commodity in this house for doll outfits and other crafts that the kids do. I hide it everywhere, but then can never find it. I try to leave one in with the wrapping paper, but when I pulled it out this year it was empty! Guess someone found that stash!

If those socks and scissors mate, he'll have some sharp looking socks!

ROFL!! Okay...needed a giggle thanks!


Yes, Ellen, I started leaving one in my wrapping bucket as well. Still managed to vanish!! LOL

I have that same problem with the scissors and tape disappearing, so today at Sam's I bought extra tape and scissors so now. I should be set.

I think some evil little trolls steal my tape and my scissors every year when i go to wrap presents. I keep waiting for a ransom note but it never comes..and the scissors and tape are never seen again....

[Grandma Flowers]

It's not just tape.

[Ayla]

I've just resigned myself to the fact that I buy it and never get to use it, so i just buy more and get to use maybe a third of THAT one!

[Charleneanne]

oh my gosh,all year long. Not just at Christmas. But I have discovered that clear mailing tape cut into smaller pieces works as well. LOL

[croppinmama]

I just read this today and laughed. Late last night I had to leave a note for my son to see in the morning. I couldn't find any scotch tape so I used a zot dot

[craftyfool]

YUP! And I always put it in a "safe spot" too.

[harper828]

that's me every year. It's like the sock monster.

I bought the huge pack from Sam's and already 3 rolls are missing and I just opened it 2 days ago. Maybe Santa is experiencing budget cuts and they are borrowing from the rest of us to save cost
