Alright--
I need to ship some stuff to someone, specifically a HDD, CPU, and GPU...

I know you're SUPPOSED to have anti-static bags--unfortunately I have none.

Any good alternatives to those?

Any reccomendations?

Thanks.

That's what I'm planning on, just curious if there were any household items that would serve the same purpose.

I already have the box/peanuts/&etc.
Just these bloody AS bags. Oh well. To a local computer store I go...

Just in case anyone ever ends up searching for this; here we go:
"Store parts in anti-static plastic bags (paper envelopes or cardboard boxes will work well enough for most applications just don?t use plastic containers)"
http://xtronics.com/reference/esd.htm

So, wonder if paper towel would work. Ah well. *grabs envelope*

Edit: Paper towel won't work, just did a nice static experiment =P
