Was this something we were supposed to learn from our Mom's?????
I can't believe it's been there all this time.
I had to go into the kitchen and check this out for myself.
Whoever looks at the end of your aluminum foil box?
You know when you try to pull some foil out and the roll comes out of the box.
Then you have to put the roll back in the box and start over.
The darn roll always comes out at the wrong time.
Well, I would like to share this with you.
Yesterday I went to throw out an empty Reynolds foil box and for some reason I turned it,
and looked at the end of the box. And written on the end it said, Press here to lock end.
Right there on the end of the box is a tab to lock the roll in place.
How long has this little locking tab been there?
I then looked at a generic brand of aluminum foil and it had one, too.
I then looked at a box of Saran wrap and it had one too!
I can't count the number of times the Saran wrap roll has jumped out,
when I was trying to cover something up.
I'm sharing this with my friends.
I hope I'm not the only person that didn't know about this.
I know you're going to go and check your boxes, so go ahead!

Isn't this something we should learn in Kindergarten? or at least home-ec?
I feel really dumb!!!

Well at least you can teach your girls : )
That is too funny! Just two weeks ago I yelled at Bruce for using 6 foot of aluminum foil to bake rolls. He said, "The d--- roll fell on the floor!" So, we now have "Locked" our "new" roll in place! Thank you for sharing this valuable information!!!
I didn't know about that either.
I did not know that either, but I asked hubby Mike, and he said "Oh, yeah, I knew that". I don't know if I can believe him though - I think I'll ask his mom!

and another reason I do not believe hubby Mike knew about this . . . none of our boxes were ever punched out.
Debbie-Thats funny!!
