Floppy disk labels as gift tags

If you know someone who would appreciate them, it would be almost sinful not to tag their Christmas gifts with these clever floppy-style examples. They’re $5.50 for a pack of 5, with 5 color choices. It’s a bit pricey, given that you could just use the real thing for less, but they are at least printed on nice fancy card stock.

They also make similar items from old library cards.

    Ooh, I think my dad still has a box of punchcards somewhere; you just gave me a great idea…

    $1.10 per label?
    You can get a ten pack of floppy discs for 1.99 with free shipping.

    I just went into my drawer at work and found boxes of floppies. The labels are all in there, nad they would work great on gift bags.

    You could actually put the labs on the floppy disks, drill holes in them, then use the DISKS as tags cheaper than these!

    Really a good idea. But I wouldn’t buy them either. I like your idea as well Rob. It’s a creative way to label presents.

    Hey, floppies even come with holes already; the high-density select hole on one side and the write-protect/enable hole on the other.
