Maybe so, but down here in the tropics, duct tape in your pocket gets gummy and messy very quickly. Not worth the savings for ruined pockets. YMMV.


I live in the Northeast. I find the extra source of duct tape a PLUS. I switch out the duct tape about once a year if I haven't already used it for other purposes.

I have short lengths of duct tape scattered where convenient in my pockets.

Thanks.
