MISCELLANEOUS USE FOR ZIP LOCK BAGS

70. Funnel: Cut a hole in the corner of a ClearZip bag and use the bag to funnel anything you wish. Tuck it into your narrow-mouthed container and pour into the large open end. Fill up the bag with whatever you need whether it be water, rice, cereal, stones, etc.

71. Tackle Box: Store hooks safely by placing them in a ClearZip bag until you get to your favorite fishing spot, or when traveling back home with your “the one that got away” story.

72. Storing Purse Cosmetics: Line your makeup bag with a ClearZip so your powders and eye shadows do not make a mess while in your purse.

73. Kits For The Homeless: Create kits with toothpaste, toothbrush, soap, shampoo, lotion, a wash cloth, and other essentials. Drop them off at a homeless shelter so the workers can distribute them.

74. Cushioning: Shipping items that are not super-fragile, but are not as big as the shipping box? Keep it from bouncing around on the way to its destination. Place a drinking straw into the bag, zip it up, then inflate. When the bag is as big as you want, quickly slide out the straw and seal the bag completely.

75. Time Bombs: Use a 5 x 5 paper towel, 1 ½ tsp. baking soda, ½ cup vinegar and ¼ cup warm water. Pour the water and vinegar in the ClearZip bag. Place the paper towel wrapped baking soda in the bag and quickly seal it. Now step back and wait for the bag to “POP”.

76. Gift Bag: Perfect for Christmas. Make a big bunch of a yummy seasonal snack. Fill a bag with the snacks and then staple a heartfelt note to the top of the bag.

77. Map Protector: Put a map inside of a lock top bag while hiking to keep it dry. Fold the map so that you can see the current terrain through the ClearZip bag.

78. Impromptu Cup: Scooping and holding water.

79. Making A Chunk Of Ice: Fill the zip about ¾ full of cool water, and seal. This will allow for the water to expand. Place in the freezer. Filling the bag with hot water can cause the bag’s seal to fail and also it causes the ice to crack and shatter more easily when removed from the freezer.

80. DIY Toiletry Pack: Store a roll of toilet paper in a zip locking for your emergency kit.

81. Pocket: Keeping cash, wallets, and key fobs dry on a rafting adventure.
