We are buying a property and there are an unbelievable amount of video tapes there. Not sure if they are any good. We are looking for uses instead of throwing them out. Any ideas?

I see Cher suggested using them for weaving, I've also heard of people crocheting with audio tapes, maybe with a bigger hook you could do that with the video tapes - make a purse or outside mat or something

If there is anything on them you could try e baying them - assuming that you haven't hit on a stash of "adult" material. If they are blank you could put them on e bay as well. People always want that type of thing now that they're harder to find in the stores.

we were thinking that too. Still not sure if they are any good. We will be going back to get them and try them out. They are mostly action and horror movies.
