Sharing a inexpensive kitchen hint . . .

We have a problem with open chip and snack bags around our house. I keep meaning to purchase one of those plastic clips for this purpose but can't bring myself to spend a dollar or more on one. I realized that wooden clothes pins are cheap, have dozens in a bag, and work great for closing bags to keep things fresh. Now I keep a few in the junk drawer and no one has an excuse for not closing the bag afer having a treat. I like convenience but I like a bargain, too! I use them on frozen items, too. They don't break in the cold and I don't find frozen peas rolling around everywhere except in the designated bag.
