Finally... The solution to that one missing sock!
You know how when you do the laundry... Inevitably, you get back one sock, without its partner! No one knows where that one sock went to... Some have speculated an "alternative universe" where the missing socks go...
Finally, entrepreneurship saves the day! One business has solved the problem of that missing one sock... They solve the problem by... (Drumroll, please!) Selling you 3 socks! So if one sock goes missing, you've still got 2 !   The company that sells the "3-sock packs" is Throx... I thought it was pretty wacky idea! - Dien Last edited by Dien Rice : March 27, 2008 at 06:51 AM.

If only there was a solution to the missing Tuperware Lid, or lid without base (DNO)
DNO means Do Not Open

Michael,
Be careful what you ask for... You just never know... There just might be a Creative Hotsheet solution... Haven't seen many selling How to "Hotsheet Videos" as of yet... How to Organize Empty Food Storage Containers and Lids http://www.wikihow.com/Organize-Empt...iners-and-Lids http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&c...G=Search&meta= Phil

More "products by subscription"...
Quote:
Thanks for those extra links... As usual, you're a "gold mine" of information! The "socks by subscription" idea is a great one... How many other products could be sold by subscription? I bet there are plenty... You'd just have to think of things that people buy on a regular basis, which doesn't require too much "thinking" about... Here are a few more links... (Phil's posted the first one before, but I don't think the others have been posted as far as I remember...) http://www.blacksocks.com http://www.sockrevolution.com http://www.silktieshop.co.uk/products/subscriptions - Dien

Don't forget the {product} of the month club subscription model. Here's a website that gathers a ton of them in one place:

Subscription ideas still kicking! Razor blades & Tampons... Not together of course...
Thought I'd kick this one up a notch and back to life...
Monthly subscription ideas are still pretty much an Untapped market... Open to the infigment of the imagination... Don't forget to read the thread in reverse... We're into the bathroom now... Where to next? Only time will tell...  http://www.springwise.com/fashion_beauty/razwar/ http://www.sendmonthly.com/ Phil Last edited by Phil : July 28, 2009 at 04:48 AM. Reason: additional info
