They sell these tiny baggies in craft stores.

A lot of crafters use them to store beads and/or small amounts of various crafting materials (punched paper, stickers, bits of clay, jewelry findings). I have used them for beads & jewelry findings.

Also, they are used to store completed pairs of earrings & other small items. They have many legitimate uses.

Nothing like punishing the innocent for the crimes of the guilty.

They’re also useful for jumpers and screws if you work on computers. Most anyone who’s built a machine or two has some extras laying around “just in case” and small baggies are one of the best ways to store them.

Yep. My wife is a seed beader, and she uses the same tiny Ziploc bags to store seed beads and small finished pieces like earrings.

She swears she nearly got arrested in South Carolina once when she was at lunch talking with a fellow beader about their craft, and a cop at a nearby table gave them the hairy eyeball when he heard them talking about “baggies” and “grams”...of seed beads.

I used to use them all the time for organizing the cardboard pieces and counters that came with wargames.
