At least pack more vacuous, because vacuum packing isn't just for coffee, it's for saving storage space for anything soft and squooshable. We suggest this 6-pack of 40" x 32" large vacuum-seal storage bags, into which you can stuff pillows and blankets and sweaters and overcoats and stuffed monkeys and any number of other things, then suck out all the air with the enclosed hand pump and watch it shrink by 80% so you can slide it under your bed and forget about it for mold and moth-free years. (OK, it's not a pump, because it sucks, so call it a handy little sucker.) Also dandy for travel because the little sucker doesn't take up much space, so you can shrink your return laundry too--and keep it hermetically sealed. Works even faster with a vacuum!

Eye dropper, tongue dropper, test tube dropper, petri dish dropper, anywhere dropper. Use this 3" glass dropper, with a rubber squeeze bulb to drop small amounts of liquid wherever you think they should go.

This stuff is imported from China, and is considered student grade, which is good enough for anything but the most exotic applications. We have beakers, test tubes, graduated cylinders and flasks. Compare the prices below and you will see that they are around half the U.S. equivalent. Call us for larger quantity prices.
