Office Depot=Party City?

While out running errands yesterday, I stopped by Office Depot to pick up a ream of paper they had on sale.  I found what I needed and headed to the cash register.  When I was getting out my money to pay, I saw something bright out of the corner of my eye.  I looked down and saw a pile of animal rubber band bracelets for sale.  I know these were all the rage back in 2010-2011, but I never got into them.

However, when I saw the 25¢ price tag, a Pinterest light bulb (Pinterbulb?) went off in my head.  I remembered an idea that I had pinned awhile back that suggested using these bracelets as wine charms.  There were 20 bands in the bag which equated to 1.25¢ a charm.  Sold.

And what makes these particular bands even better?  They are tropical themed--perfect for our new home in Florida!

Oh I can't wait to use them!  Thank you Party City Office Depot for making my day!

I'm not sure if these are for sale at every Office Depot, but I'd say it's worth a look.  Even if you don't use them as charms, they would make great Easter basket treats or party favors for a kid's birthday.
