For Guys Only (No peeking Ladies)
 
I had to go into the kitchen and check this out for myself. Whoever looks at the end of your aluminum foil box? You know when you try to pull some foil out and the roll comes out of the box. Then you have to put the roll back in the box and start over. The darn roll always comes out at the wrong time.

Well, I would like to share this with you. Yesterday I went to throw out an empty Reynolds foil box and for some reason I turned it and looked at the end of the box. And written on the end it said, Press here to lock end. Right there on the end of the box is a tab to lock the roll in place. How long has this little locking tab been there? I then looked at a generic brand of aluminum foil and it had one, too. I then looked at a box of Saran wrap and it had one too! I can't count the number of times the Saran wrap roll has jumped out when I was trying to cover something up.

So,,,,,If you want to get to the little Ladies heart ,,then,,show her this trick YOU learned and what ever happens after that is to each ,his own imagination ..LOL good luck

wow and I was fighting with the saran wrap this morning trying to wrap my sandwich for lunch. Dang roll kept popping out, and saran wrap is the worst because it sticks to itself.

My wife buys our plastic and foil wrap at costco. They weigh 10-20 lbs each. The rolls usually stay in the box. I never did know that though.

ETsc10, at least now we can get some wrap out of the box to wrap you with.I assume since you've been dipped you now need wrapped.
BTW My "Boss" didn't know it either.

Re: For Guys Only (No peeking Ladies)
 
just think, some genius retired after coming up with that idea.
just like the guy who decided that a box is NOT the way to package ice cream.

Yeah, but I'll bet a hunk of 3/4" all-thread down the middle with double fender washers, split washers and nylon nuts with a little loc-tite would do the trick. Geesh why do women make such a big deal out of things?:lol::haha:
