After you tie something down with one you are supposed to flick it and say...That ain’t goin’ nowhere. I bet they forgot to do that part.

Some had seepage in the water of a pure white, fine powder. Must have been confectioner’s powdered sugar. But the fish and turtles are going nuts now.

I bought a dozen for my last two moves, expecting them to last for two moves and done. Still have eight or nine four years later.
Yeah cheap “Stuff” but held up better than expected.

Oh, I know. I have stuff from Harbor Freight, too. Mixed results. Their exchange policy is easy to deal with.

OK, without looking up the definitions, would these accidently dumped containers qualify as “flotsam” or would it qualify as “jetsam”?
