minus-squarevariants@possumpat.iolinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·4 months agoI bought crappy zip ties once and I still have them because I don’t want to toss them but they are too crappy to use for anything haha
minus-squaresystemglitch@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·edit-24 months agoYeah funny you say that, zip ties are something I never cheap out on. At least not after buying cheap one a couple decades ago, I learned my lesson. Home Depot has some great zip ties and each time I use them, I get a small dopamine surge of joy. It’s just one of those things in life where quality matters.
