I used them for the plug sockets when my children were small to stop them putting other objects in the holes.

andrea, what a great idea for reusing the pizza thingy, it tells me you still have all of your brain cells and that they are still working.

similiar plastic “chairs” are used to maintain the proper height
of rebar. just set the rebar on top of it you would need a lot
of them though. So if you tell them your planning an addition
to you house on a slab and need them to support the rebar
at the min.. required from end of the concrete :)
OR
For conduit for electric/cable/ etc.. in a slab.

Doubt many know would give you that answer.

ps metal is not any good because it rusts leading to water
entry to the rebar and comprimising the structure so the
“chairs” are plastic.

[...] out of curiosity caused a small metal piece to fall out onto the table. It looked like one of those pizza box support things, but tiny and metal. What was it? Would it still be safe to use the charger without it? Amazon.com [...]

I have these saved from the pizzas we get in office. my colleagues had a good laugh at me on that. They say we can not find a way to use them. i dont have kids, even in my immediate families and my colleagues say even children wont play with them. however i am still determined and have kept them to think of reuse.
Seeing it on this site has given me boost to keep thinking. Thanks

Could you use them for three pointed french knitting or do you need four points to do it properly?
You’d have to snap the middle bit out too.

I think you do need four, but not a bad idea!!!!

I use mine for flower arranging, when using florist’s oasis (oasis is the green foamy stuff they use). Stick it to the bottom of your container and it will stop the oasis from slipping. You can buy the same thing from the florist for about a quid.

They make great cat toys. We have a few that have become the favorite of one of my cats. Strange, but true.

My friends and I plan on using them for making wargaming terrain using these plastic thingys. We intend to make a communications tower, use them as a base for statues, and make a towering scaffold for an outpost. If anyone is interested we will start posting pics of work in progress hopefully after week end!
Not that everybody has a need for wargaming terrain, but if you should know someone who plays these games, and you saved them for him or her and gave them this link, they will sure be gratefull!!

Reuse them to keep cling-wrap off a frosted cake or similar food item if you’re bringing said food somewhere for a party and don’t want to bring (and forget to bring home) a reusable food storage tub.

I frequently used them as tables in my dollhouse as a kid.

Can you balance one on top of another? If so then you’ve got the makings of a game – who can build the highest tower.

When I was younger I used them for my barbie’s and such, or made little things with them. Try giving them to kids to play with! Especially future engineers who like building stuff or crafts.

I’ve often thought these make ideal furniture for rodents.
