You know the stuff that you get wrapped around breakables in parcels. I love the stuff. I love the feel of the bubbles popping under my fingers and the sound, pop pop pop. I drive co-workers nuts, when I find some I can't stop until the last bubble is popped. I find it very stress relieving. Does anyone else love this stuff? Or do you know someone who is addicted to the pop.

Oh definitely, I love it, my sons love it. We even jump on the big ones that give a large pop sound. We feel relax and find it is good for destress.

I love to pop bubble wrap--so does my hubby and my kids. If someone complains, my stock reply is, 'well, lets see...I had a choice between therapy and bubble wrap and I chose what was cheaper and more fun'

I pop the bubbles. My kids pop the bubbles. Hubby just doesn't get it at all. I didn't think of it quite as therapy, but you have a point. However, I don't think I could work next to you. Just not the same having someone else doing the popping.:-) I'll tell you who loves popping bubbles - my dog!! Got to watch he doesn't swallow any, but boy does he have fun.

Wow I thought I was the only one. I'm drawn to the sound. It is really relaxing. The popping sound calms me down also when I get upset. POP, pop, pop

I too love to "pop" the bubble.. I must be addicted, because my kids and I would fight over who got to pop the bubbles, (Of course I allowed them to), but they seemed to have grown out of it. Even my 5 year old doesn't bother anymore, yet I still love the feel and sound of popping everyone of the bubbles..
