I have never understood why I have to buy paper clips in packages of 100 or more. Who actually uses that many paper clips. They're nice for when you need them, but I might have needed to use ten total in the past five years (and two of those times I only needed a streched-out paper clip to eject a CD from the CD ROM on a PC).
I use that many paperclips at work. I send a lot of back-up paperwork to go with the checks I send out. I put the check in the check envelope and paperclip it to the back-up copies. This is my mundane contribution.

I use paperclips like crazy at my job. But I only like the Jumbo size....they are easier to grab and clip on paper. My boss, however, only likes little ones. So, ultimately, my clips end up in his office and I get his. When he is out of the office, I make the switch. I think that is called Recycling?? LOL!
I dislike the jumbo paper clips - they are to big and bulky. (Everything is about looking good in my profession.) Usually the small ones work just fine for the amount of paper that I need to clip together and if I have a large stack of paper I use a black binder clip.
