Subject Packing Peanuts

While shopping at Hobby Lobby this week-
I saw a bag of the packing peanuts for sale.
They were $5 and it also included a small sponge.
(They were the kind that look more like colored Cheetos) The idea was to wet the sponge,
then stick one end of the peanut on it, then stick it to another peanut.
When I got to work- I had a package come in with those same peanuts (only white)
I tried it- and they actually stick together.

(A lot better than what I thought they would)
They were advertising them as a toy similar to Legos or Lincon Logs.
I brought home the packaing material I got at work- and the kids had a ball with it!
Best of all it was FREE and I simply threw them away when they were done.
