Bubble Wrap


Is anyone else addicted to Bubble Wrap? I can not seem to help myself when I have it in the house. My kids know to save it for me. It seems to be a good stress release for me. The family just laughs.

Well.... I could have other bad habits I guess.

Oh I don't know about that. The inability to control yourself around virgin bubble wrap could be a sign of much deeper problems.......................

It's the


stuff you use when you're packing breakable things, like china or glasses, when you need to send them somewhere, either through the mail or FedEx or UPS or when you're moving......

The plastic wrap that is used in packaging to protect items from breaking. It has small medium and large bubbles in the plastic that are fun to POP.

Ruin bubble wrap? Harm precious bubble wrap? WHY ????
I don't understand this?
Go beat the neighbor's dog.
Shop lift at Target.
Send obscene email to friends.
Anything except harm precious bubble wrap.
Preserve and defend bubble wrap.
Keep all bubble wrap safe from harm.

No wonder we have conflicts with other countries... they just don't understand our need to POP bubble wrap.

Wally - Thank you... I remember being sent that before. Fun stuff

There's this little gadget now that you press a button and it makes the 'POP' noise, and every 100 pops it 'rewards' you with a random sound, but I appear to have lost the linky I had for it...don't know if it would be as much fun as real bubble wrap though. My kids and I are the same...we have even had a great big sheet laid down the hallway when we got the new fridge freezer, so that we could run up and down on it to hear the pops.

Follow the link above and you will find what you are looking for.
I had to click through to a couple of pages to get there, but yes there were sound effects (toilet flush).

I like the real "stuff" better.

I'm also like that with bubble wrap.
My husband just gives me his look when I go at it.

Bubble wrap is great!


All our products use to come wrapped in it, now they use those silly polystrene balls,all it does is make a mess.
And to say the least they have spoilt our fun!

I guess you could say I'm addicted to bubble wrap. My mom always gets mad at me whenever I find it. She wants me to save it so it can be reused. I pop it anyway... Once, my peeps and I had a bubble wrap popping contest, it wasn't at my house...
