6. Cut circles out of them for the jam pots, then compost the rest
7. Use them to handwrite labels for your jam - stick them on with pritt stick.

My Granny used to put coal in everything combustible that was big enough to put coal in. Cuppa Soup boxes were her favoriteThomzo wrote:My late-ex-mother-in-law used to fill them with coal and put them on the fire. Not sure why though.

She then flung the box/carton/container of coal onto her Rayburn (which sadly packed in about 5 years ago and was removed).
She is still ribbed when fumbling with a cardboard box of any description: "Now you could put coal in than mind...."

10. cut along the side and bottom, hand a child a wax crayon and tell them to bugger off while you drink your tea.
11. cut in same way as above, make a paper hat
12. again cut in same way, use over the hand to pick up faeces: dog, horse, 18 month old child...
13. again cut, use to write a note to the postman saying that this is the 4th time he has posted a letter through your door which needs to be redelivered as it only bears the house number in common with your own. FFS, not even the bloody postcode is the same!!!
14.cut a hole in the top and 2 on the sides, poke a barbie through it. tie in the middle. play at "cavemen" or "tramps"
15. use to collect fruit in.
I think I'm out of ideas now.
