Instead of ripping off completed items, just rip partway and fold over or rip partway off.  I used to do this with food shopping lists and it worked really well.

I am still in the “what do I do with this thing” phase as well. You have actually made it farther along than I have. I’ll let you know if I come up with something new or novel.

I often take little strips of paper–write a short reminder and staple them as a loop on my purse handle. It is hard to forget something that way and this would lend itself perfectly to that reminder system.

I’d use it for collecting writing prompts/ideas for creative projects. When the prompt is used, tear it off or tear it out half-way (depending upon where in the list it is). And, of course, the perforations would make it easy to tear off all of the strips and draw a writing prompt from a hat, as you suggested. The small size seems convenient for carrying around and simply recording ideas.

I’d imagine you don’t have to rip off ALL the little tabs, but could could rip the paper several places into big chunks.

If that’s the case, this is kind of the ideal notebook for me. I have a similarly sized graph notebook that I like a lot. I keep it in my purse and jot notes on it and at the end of the day/week, go through it and download everything into its proper place, which often ends up with me, ideally, cutting the paper or, more often, ripping it in half. Color me intrigued…

This could be a great novelty gift. I do like your ideas, I admit right before scrolling down to read them I found this pretty pointless. However, I can see some use for it now, especially after reading some of the comments here.

If someone asks me for info, like an address or phone number, I end up tearing off part if a sheet from a pad. For that reason I usually carry one of the tiny Rhodia pads. This might work well for that. Just tear off as much as I need. Sometimes I like to make notes and use them as bookmarks. The grid pads seem even stranger, some the perforations go both ways. I can’t resist–just ordered one of each. I love Kokuyo paper; their Campus High Grade MIO notebooks are especially good.

This notebook would be great if you regularly send messages by carrier pigeon. 

I like this…Im terrible at the grocery store, an absolute disorganized mess to tell you the truth, so this might be helpful for me.

This makes me feel better…if YOU don’t know, I don’t feel like its so bad that I don’t know.

I can see how that would work….if you carry a purse.

You are totally right in regards to the size, this thing is small and can tuck nicely into a pocket purse or bag.

That sounds SUPER efficient!

Yeah, I think if you have it around you will eventually figure out how to make it work for you.

This seems like the best and most simple idea, cant believe I didnt think of it.  Glad you like them and picked some up though, hope you enjoy!

Hey, with Verizon eliminating their unlimited data plans, you may be on to something.

Writing down web sites for people, I do it at work all the time.  They’re perfectly sized for an average length URL.

And hey, birdseed is pretty cheap and it’s a lot more “green” than using all that electricity!

Every time you think of something thoughtful or have a good memory about your significant other, child or family member write it down on one of the strips.  Once you have 50 or so you could put them in a small jar or box and give it to them for a gift.  They could take one strip out a day to read ;^)

I keep a notebook in my purse, to scribble on when I need to make quick notes or calculations.  (Yeah, I know my phone has a calculator, but sometimes I just need to see the numbers worked out on paper!)  For example, if I’m in the post office line figuring out how many stamps I need and whether I have enough cash, I’ll whip out the notebook and do my figures on any random empty spot.  Then I scribble over it and leave the rest of the page for the next time it’s needed.  This little notebook would be really handy for such purposes.  If I turn it upside down, that puts the first thing I write on the first strip to be torn off; I can make my notes, then just tear it off and throw it away when I’m done, leaving the rest of the page for the next calculation I need to do.

Perfect for:
playing charades
Creativity exercises (write a word on each slip and draw two as prompts for a poem or story theme)
Group storytelling exercise where each person writes a line seeing only the one previous line, with all previous lines folded over.
writing very short poems (I use Myndology flash card pads for that right now)

Awesome ideas! Thanks for sharing .
