Pringles Can

What do you do with a Pringles Can after you finished the crips?

And what could you do with one?

I've got a load of coins in one. (spare change)

In another I found McVities Biscuits fit perfectly inside (still in their wrapper) but of course the pringles can has sealable lid and at the moment the foil inner layer is helping to keep the chcolate biscuit from totally melting.

I can also see 2 coke cans fit well in them too, so thinking the foil inner layer might be good for keeping them extra cool for longer when you need to take them on a journey.

And then of course there's more hitech uses for one

or just a new fashion statement

    If you had two cans and some string you could try making a telephone.

    You can make a tennis ball cannon.
    Possibly a bong if you clean it out. Hmm. Must try.
    Or I put an empty bottle of tesco kick(mostly likely) inside until it gets taken down for recycling. It'll probably sit in my room for a few days tbh.

    That's a good suggestion although I think you'd have to break most spagetti in half first. But I'd do that anyway before cooking it.

    an rpg.

    we put a deoderant can in side one, angled it up and set the interior on fire.
    the deoderanct explodes at the bottom end blowing the pringles can forward.

    I just leave the can unopened in the store. My giant hand gets stuck in the can when the chips get too low and its just not worth it. I'm a Ruffles girl myself, tbh.

    Make a whole nativity scene or something

    I haven't had pringles in ages and this is making me hungry.
