Uses for Spent Staples?

Ok, we’ve got a tricky one this week. When you accidentally eject staples from the stapler, and the staples are then folded down without holding anything together, can you think of any uses for those used staples?

We look forward to hearing your most creative ideas. Thanks for being a Tip Hero!
