You can use the demo tape and just make it centered so that you have a space
on each end of the tape, and take a hole puncher, punching a hole at each
end, so you don't hit the Braille on it, and take a piece of elastic, cut
what ever length, you need to put around things, run it through the holes
tying a knot good, and then just slip in over the item you you want to have
marked. This way you don't have to worry about sticking it, and, it coming
loose. When you use the item, take off the elastic band and you can keep
it and re use it the next time you have that what is Brailed on it to
freeze again. Also can make them to fit over can goods and etc. Keeping and
reusing them. I use to do this a long time ago myself. We now have a bar
code scanner and there is no need to now. Hope this helps. Katie

I use dymo tape. Sometimes it doesn't stick. But I find that the tape
sticks better if you wipe the item with a paper towel before sticking
the dymo tape on. Some people put things in freezer bags and put a file
card with the item's name inside the bag with the item. I have a friend
who does that. It seems like that makes things more complicated and
takes up more space.

Subject: [CnD] Labeling Frozen Foods
I'm looking for a reliable way to label frozen foods. Stickers don't
stay stuck, or they get damp and the Braille is erased. I do not have a
talking device of any type for labeling and cannot afford 1 at this
time, so those suggestions won't work for me.
Any ideas appreciated.
Rhonda
