MORE Bounce Ideas!
These hillarious ideas were sent in by our good customer, George Meier. Thanks George!
The fact is, Bounce sheets have a great many household uses that do not require a background in physics to implement. For example:
Hair care: Tie a Bounce sheet in your hair as a lovely bow and it will keep static electricity from ruining your careful combing.
Kill insects: An insect tied securely in a sheet of Bounce will die within days.
Note taking: Notes and lists written on Bounce sheets with a Sharpie marker have a delightfully fresh "take care of this now" scent.
Car problems: Bounce sheets can be used as emergency seat stuffing or brake pads.
Geometry homework: A sheet of Bounce makes a great flexible straight edge and 90-degree protractor.
Door problems: A box of Bounce placed near the base of a door will help keep it from swinging shut on its own.
Shoes: A stack of Bounce stapled together with some twine attached to the top makes a darling pair of impromptu sandals.
Dressing up: If you're a man who is invited to a fancy restaurant on a moment's notice and don't have your tie with you, you can easily fashion one with tape, scissors, and four sheets of Bounce.
Cleanliness: No time to shower? Rub yourself all over with Bounce!
Cleanliness II: Keep a box of Bounce in the bathroom for occasions when you unexpectedly run out of toilet paper.
Guests: Put a stack of Bounce sheets on a tray on the bathroom sink as delightful scented guest towels.
Weddings: Fashion centerpiece "flowers" from pipe cleaners and Bounce. Let guests take them home as a fresh-smelling, static-killing keepsake.
Book care: A sheet of Bounce makes a convenient bookmark.
Spelling: A box of Bounce can act as a handy reminder for how to spell the difficult word "ounce" ("Bounce" = "B" + "ounce").
Sewing: A stack of Bounce sheets makes a fine pincushion.
Prevent sticking: Sheets of Bounce between pieces of Velcro will prevent them from sticking.
Fond farewells: A few Bounce sheets in an open casket eliminate that "just embalmed" smell.
Baby care: Put a sheet of Bounce in a baby's diaper. Eliminates odor and stops static from making baby stick to things. (Note, may make some babies deathly ill.)
Funny jokes: Wrap dog waste in a sheet of Bounce, put it on a neighbor's porch in the middle of the night, set it on fire, ring the doorbell, and run! Hilarious!
Repel attackers: A sheet of Bounce poked with great force in the eye will deter even the most aggressive attacker.
Self defense: A sufficiently thick stack of Bounce will actually stop a bullet!
Money counting: If you have large stacks of cash, separate bills with sheets of Bounce to prevent their sticking together during counting. Bounce can also be used to help rub away the ink from explosive dye packs that often come packaged with bags of bank currency.
Immigration assistance: Before reaching a border checkpoint, wrap sheets of Bounce around embarrassing imported materials to throw off drug-sniffing dogs.
Noise reduction: A sheet of Bounce stuffed into the mouth of a tied-up individual prevents yelling and battles bad breath.
Many more uses are possible. The only limit is your imagination!
