Layton 0 #1 March 7, 2005 i'm talking about the ribbons not the power tools.yesterday we had to go to home depot to buy some trim wood.we didnt get any string like normal people would do so when we got on the highway the wood started to fly around in the bed of the truck.so we stopped and tied one pull up cord around the wood then we looped another one through that then took one and tied it all to the anchor in the truck bed.so i was wondering what other uses you people have found for pull up cords.***the key to life?lminding my own business Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jumpergirl 0 #2 March 7, 2005 One year I decorated my Christmas tree with pull-up cords. I've tied them in my hair. I've seen them used as shoe strings. I've seen them tied together and used as a belt. I've used them to keep loose keys together. The possibilities are endless. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Evelyn 0 #7 March 7, 2005 Yeah, I also use them on my luggage. Not too many people have pull up cords on their luggage. I can always find mine right away. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ~ Helen Keller Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
