I use them to pack stuff for my customers and when I carry something 
small between work and home. Still a lot left, but they're not flooding me.
Nevertheless I can't understand some packing techniques DigiKey and many 
others use: one small bag, inside there is another bag with 
potentiometer, then another one with a nut, and another one with washer.

Maybe there is a way to comact them at higher temperature to form a 
brick out of them, then build a plastic house.
