I got the below email from a friend from which she had gotten the same email from another friend. Since, I have no time right now to come up with my own thoughts in my blog, I thought I would share this. Believe me, I went to my Aldi plastic wrap and it had it!

I had to go into the kitchen and check this out for myself. Whoever looks at the end of your aluminum foil box? You know when you try to pull some foil out and the roll comes out of the box. Then you have to put the roll back in the box and start over. The darn roll always comes out at the wrong time.

Well, I would like to share this with you. Yesterday I went to throw out an empty Reynolds foil box and for some reason I turned it and looked at the end of the box. And written on the end it said, Press here to lock end. Right there on the end of the box is a tab to lock the roll in place. How long has this little locking tab been there? I then looked at a generic brand of aluminum foil and it had one, too. I then looked at a box of Saran wrap and it had one too! I can't count the number of times the Saran wrap roll has jumped out when I was trying to cover so mething up.

I'm sharing this with my friends. I hope I'm not the only person that didn't know about this.

I knew those little wonders were there - and I don't use them. What does that say about me.

Glad to see you're back!

No way!! Why isn't this advertised on tv? A great selling point, don't you think? Hope you are well! Still have the snow?

So funny...I knew this at some point because I read it in an email too...and then I forgot? I'm afraid to think what that says about me! My memory is going along with a lot of other things! Thanks for the reminder! :)
