I am sorry I asked about the tape measures. I didn't realize it was a 
commercial question. Sometimes I get so frustrated by the long tentacles of 
marketing! Having replaced almost all of our "educational" marketing materials, 
I am now working on items commonly used in a hospital. Running out of an 
item can lead to sales folk hanging around with the delivery of the needed 
item. The thousands of dollars saved by hospitals in return for distribution of 
discharge ad bags includes so many disposable items. The responses from my 
inquiry taught me that we create alot of waste from these items, which made 
me think why do we throw so much away? What can we reuse? I'm going to 
ask the hospital Infection Control dept., and ask the purchasing dept to check 
on finding replacements for 'free' items. I have a feeling that it might not be as 
much money as is feared. I don't see that the Baby Friendly hospitals have 
gone out of business by purchasing these things. thanks for your patience, I 
am still growing, Judy
