No! It was so quick that there must be more!!! 
As freezer bags, they are brilliant, but keep out freezer burn best if you double bag the goods to be frozen (we use them for our homekill chooks and rabbits, and they are fine up to 6 months later - but we usually eat the meat long before that).

Well this is an actually tried and tested use that was frequently seen on the rivers in my younger canoeing days.
In winter cut the bottom open, and slit up the sides a cuple of inches, put paddle through, gaffa tape the bottom of the bag back up and you have a pair of very serviceable paddle mits.
They work pretty well believe me.

I haven't had a turn yet!
They make ideal little coats for poorly lambs or kids!
Cut out a hole for the head and holes for the legs and slip them on the lamb or kids, keeps them dry so they don't get cold!!
Make sure you change it every so often, cos they can sweat and they go mouldy!
Nuffin' worse than mouldy lambs!!

Must have missed that... But I think we had the one for the lambs' coats before - I remember somebody saying they called the lambs the names on the jackets: Warburton, Mother's Pride, Value...Millymollymandy wrote:See Andy's thread which I think is a sticky at the top of this section.

Re: 101 uses for a bread bag
I have a new one!!
When clipping your toenails and fingernails, stick your hand/foot in a bread bag to stop nail clippings from flying all over the place. When finished, simply tip them from the bread bag into the bin...or compost!
I'm off to do so now!!!

Re: 101 uses for a bread bag
They're also useful for putting smelly rubbish in. You can tie it up, and seal the smells in, so you won't have to discard the bin bag as often if it isn't full up!
