Rubber bands are simply... rubber bands. Just how exciting can a rubber band be? We all make use of them sometimes without a thought to how to improve on something so simple yet so ubiquitous.

These are not the latest items on the marketplace or anything, but I was having some trouble tying two slippery items together recently and a friend gave me one magical X-Shaped rubber band, and Presto! the job was accomplished effortlessly!

Available at MoMa Store for $5.00 a box, comes in 4 different sizes and colors.
