I got this idea from a friend at church.
What do you do with those left over tabs from bread bags? If you're like me, they go into a zipped baggy with a bunch of twisty ties, too. They are not thought of until I need one for closing a baggie because the original tab it came with got lost. But here is another life it can assume- scraper!
Instead of using your nails or even a sharp knife (oops, I do that) to scrape dried on who-knows-what off the counter-top or stove, use a bread tab! It's small enough to get into hard to reach areas, is easy to grip and maneuver, and is stiff enough but not sharp to get things done.
Make sure you recycle it when done! If there is no triangle on the plastic, remember to check out Agri-Plas! The link is on the left side of this page under "Other Resources To Consider." They reuse the crude oil from "un-recyclable" plastics to make new products. It's awesome!
