ink smearsJuly 20, 2010 J. Michael Maddux(Austin, TX United States) Does anyone have a suggestion for what type of pen to use to avoid smeared ink? I tried a regular ballpoint and a felt tip. Can't read what I wrote!
Retaliation PurchaseMarch 30, 2010 But I'm feeling much better now...(Chicago, IL United States) I bought these mostly just to prove how stupid to put a two dollar item in a Quick Pick. With Prime shipping, the net profit was in the red by a few dollars.
But, I actually like them, and would buy more if they came in more colors and larger quantities (less per piece cost.) They're great for bookmarking technical books by subject, but really limited by the color selection. If I could buy boxes of 50 or 100 of 10 different colors I'd jump on them.
Amazing how 3M just makes a few useful products, and makes them well, isn't it?
Strong tabsFebruary 28, 2010 N. Krishnan These tabs are pretty sturdy. I use them as file tabs, since the clip-on tabs that came with my hanging folders kept falling off.
However, it is difficult to find a good pen to write on them. It works better if you use a Sharpie. I haven't tried removing the tabs after attaching, so I can't comment on how cleanly it comes off.
Thrilled with the versitalityFebruary 20, 2010 Morganna Wolf(Pacific NW) I just love these things! I have ordered several of them and use them for a variety of reasons.
I keep a few on the note pad I use in meetings and use them to flag items that I need to address outside of the meeting. Unlike other flags these are duable and do not bend or easily fall off even when my pad is thrown in the bottom of my bag or when the flags are lifted off and repositioned time and time again (typically after about 8 to 10 repositions the sticky becomes less secure).
I keep this in my shopping cart and watch for a price change that I am willing to pay.
Handy Removable Color Tabs - Highly RecommendedFebruary 14, 2010 CFH(Blue Ridge Summit, PA USA) Theses "Post-It Index File Tabs" are great little labels that come in a clever plastic dispenser. There are 66 labels, 22 each of Red, Yellow, and Blue. The sticky labels are easy to write on with pen or pencil and, while they stay put when placed, they are removable making them great for use as bookmarks.
These are really handy labels that we have found dozens of uses for around the house and in our small business. Oh, and you certainly can use them to label files too (and we do).
