I use a plastic tablecloth to cover the bench seats in my van where my kids sit. When the kids make a mess it is on the tablecloth, not the fabric of my seats.

we had a halloween party one year and i covered our couches with the cheap plastic table clothes from the dollar store. they worked perfectly to prevent anyone from spilling on the couches and all i had to do was roll them up and toss them when it was over.

My neighbor puts one down on her son's bed so that if he has an accident, she doesn't have to go through the trouble of changing the whole bed. I use them when the kids paint or do playdo.

We used to cut holes in them and use them as smocks too when we were crafting. you can use them as craft clothes too to protect tables or whatever,

I use my old plastic table cloths for covering my bar stools in my kitchen. When the table cloth gets a hole in it I just cut out enough to cover the top of the bar stool and use a staple gun to fasten it on. It's kid-proof too. If they spill on it or get it dirty you can just wipe it off.

I carry an old cheap plastic tablecloth in the trunk of my car. If I ever need to change a flat tire, I can spread the tablecloth on the ground to keep from getting dirty and/or muddy.

An old plastic tablecloth can be used as a drop cloth when painting.

An old plastic tablecloth can be used as ground cover when picnicking, attending outdoor concerts, fireworks displays, etc.

An old plastic tablecloth or shower curtain can be spread under newspaper to use when housebreaking puppies -- less cleanup!

When you see decorative plastic tablecloths on sale cheap, grab them! They are terrific for wrapping large gifts, rather than using rolls and rolls of expensive gift wrapping paper!
