Alternative ways to wear paper/plastic event wristbands?

[AdmiralButterfly]

We go on holiday this summer to a campsite with activities included and the way they do it is give you a wristband to wear for the whole week - one of those plasticky ones that sticks to itself, and you show it at each activity. I hate these and no way want it on all day and all night - has anyone invented a different way to wear them do you know? A strap you can take on and off to attach them to? Or a lanyard? Thanks

I think you'll find the whole purpose of them is that you can't keep taking them on and off. They are for you personally, and made that way so that they can't be used by anyone else - the children usually have different colours as well to help with age restricted activities.

You won't be able to stick it on a lanyard, it will have to be to your wrists as that's how they ensure you aren't passing it onto other people to use. Maybe put a sweatband over it if you don't like the feel of it moving about or a small bandage/buff underneath to stop it touching your skin

We had this at a hotel one year and they were ok with me putting it on the strap of my bag

I had one of these a couple of weeks ago, I just made sure it wasn't attached too tight and I forgot about it by lunchtime on the first day.

As a Pp said, it's designed to NOT come off otherwise everyone would be losing them/swapping them/giving it to their friends for the unlimited buffet. Etc.

Is there a reason you don't like it, like sensory issues etc? If so, get in touch with them and ask about it.

If you just 'don't like it' then unfortunately it's a bit tough. I don't think anyone likes them, but it is what it is.

You can put it on your ankle if you prefer

If you have sensory issues, maybe you can ask them to give you instead a paper with your name and you can show that along with some ID. Not as practical but it can be a solution

DD can't stand them (sensory issues) so we just stick hers in her pocket.
But the rest of us do have ours on so they can see that we aren't swapping or anything.

I don’t think I have sensory issues. I just don’t like things round me. Bracelets, necklaces etc. maybe I do 🤷‍♀️

Is it the paper / plastic you dislike or any bracelet? If it’s the former could you wear one of those rubber charity wristbands and stick the holiday pass on top so it’s not in contact with your skin?
