I have the one with the fabric strap attached. If I had a girlfriend I might hang it from her rearview mirror - after cutting a hole in the plastic, or simply recycling it - and attach a flower to it. It could also be used to bind a bushel of junk mail, which you might be able to then use as a short table. Don't you want to do something constructive with all that junk mail?

That way if you have lots of appointments you could take it with you pinned to your bag. Or teaching young ones about the days of the month or week. Pinning one with the name of the day onto an outfit etc for them and they have to find that days outfit each morning etc. If you had enough of the safety pin ones could you make a calender? pin the correct number onto a pretty tea towel and pop a piece of paper with the days number on in them.
