What to do with all those unwanted AOL or Compuserve Discs
How many AOL or Compuserve discs have you got?
You throw one away and three more arrive - through the post, stuck on magazines, left under the pillow by the tooth fairy....
But what can you do with them?
Here are some suggestions:
Most obvious one - use them as coasters.
Hang them up with twine to make a crappy mobile.
Hang them on twine across newly seeded lawns or flower beds as bird scarers.
Heat in microwave for 5 seconds as mini-firework-display.
Glue 50 together to make a paperweight.
Send them to your local school to be used as wheels in technology lessons.
Hang one in your budgie cage as a hi-tech mirror.
Use one as a mini-frisbee.
Sharpen the edge and use as a lethal frisbee weapon.
They can be used to put under the short leg of a wobbly chair (keep adding until desired thickness is achieved).
Use them to make novelty ear-rings.
Make home made glitter from them - snap them up and watch all the little silvery shards fly all over your carpet.
Use sharp pliers to nibble serrations around the edge, them use them as replacement circular saw disks.
Keep one in the car to scrape ice off the windscreen with.
Use one as a pooper-scooper to scrape something else off the footpath.
Start a collection of disks of various colours and companies. Stick 'em in an album for a modern version of beer mat collecting.
Glue them onto the wall for trendy decoration.
Use them for a new kind of game - take turns to roll them along the ground. If you can make yours land at least partly over the other player's disk when it falls over, you win the point and the other player has to keep your disk. The winner is the one who is left with no disks.
Improve your stability by wedging them under the shortest legs of wobbly chairs.
Make useful keyrings for busy teachers - too big to fit in your pocket, but shiny enough to be seen among the junk on your desk.
