What do you use as a bookmark?

[Katran]

Usually either the one bookmark I have if I can find it, or any scrap of paper that happens to be around. Lately, though, if there's a map of the world online, I print it out and use that as a bookmark so I don't have to flip to the ends too much.

am i right?

Often any scrap of paper does a fine job. Currently using a half of a straw covering.

I'm a 'fold over' the page reader.
At times I've been known to tear a little corner off

I'll get the rope. Is there a strong enough limb on that Oak?

My property! Paid for by me!
I've always been of the opinion that the content is the thing, not how nice the packaging is

For a couple of dollars I bought a deck of bookmarks at the drug store.

:: the only thing worse is hanging it over the sofa arm while you go get your beverage of choice.
(well maybe sticking the beverage on the page and leaving a circular stain[]
I recently found myself using the business card of a police officer who handled one of the neighbors break-in reports.

 

[Extollager]

I often use slips of paper, around 5x8 or so, as bookmarks, writing notes on them also. I've pretty often used subscription reply inserts removed from magazines as bookmarks. Any old scrap of paper will do. Sometimes I leave a pen or pencil between the pages if I'm writing marginal comments in the book. I believe that, in many cases, such marginalia add value to a book (for myself) rather than reducing its value. But I seem to use the slips of paper more often than writing in the book, lately.

Any bookmark collectors here other than myself?

Bookmarks (free) Collections?

 

[BAYLOR]

Anything I can find. Bookmarks , old used candy wrappers, Iron pieces of paper and envelops.

 

[TheDustyZebra]

Stray pieces of paper, the electric bill, candy wrappers (not sticky), pencil or pen.

Any bit of paper will do and often does.

Most popular choices are bookmarks (I like the stores like Wordery who include them with deliveries), concert tickets (there are a few old ones hanging around by my bed - sometimes it's interesting to find a book with one in, and realise it was actually years ago that book became unfinished) and other scraps of paper.

I still have some really old bookmarks from when I was a kid - Pontin's Crocodile Club, Llanfairpwllgwll...etc (that place in Wales with the really long name) and more.

I like bookmarks, but most of the good ones aren't free. I guess I've always been a bit of a spendthrift, and these are a luxury I just can't seem to bring myself to pay for.

I don't think I've ever paid for a bookmark. The ones I got as a kid would have been bought for me, and more recently they've been free with books - only cardboard, but they have some nice designs on them.
