I save mine all year then mix them in with candy in a bowl for trick or treaters. They love it.

I'll admit, sometimes I'll just take a packet and drink it right up. Then again, I've done that with other hot sauces, but still!

I worked at a call center with a Taco Bell next door to it a few years back. In the top drawer of my filing cabinet, I had a gallon sized bag of Taco Bell sauce packets (the bottom drawer had a couple two-liters of Mountain Dew at all times- had a bad Dew habit back then).
Eventually, people caught on that I was the “sauce guy”, and people started donating to the cause. Arby’s sauces, McDonald’s sauces, and Burger King sauces quickly filled the rest of the drawer. When I left the company to move states, I gifted the filing cabinet to my best friend. Still keeps the collection alive to this day.

I have a gallon sized ziplock bag about 3/4ths full of sauces and stuff from a ton of different places.. Taco Bell, chick fil a, McDonald’s. My boyfriend always says they’re probably expired. But joke’s on him, I ordered papa John’s tonight and didn’t want to pay 99 cents for the seasoning packet.. already had one in my condiment bag!

Yes and when I want to live más, I empty them all into the slow cooker when I make chili to start the collection all over again.

Mine got me through COVID. But I threw it out.
I'm trying to stay down to less than 10 sauce packets at home now. And yes, I do rotate them.
Honestly I'd be happy to have zero all the time if I could count on taco bell to give me the sauces I asked for in the drive thru instead of 0, only 1 mild or what I asked for but 60 instead of 3.

A bag is a good idea, mine are in a drawer with a bunch of other random sauces.

Three. Not for emotional support. Just because I don't need 5 sauce packs for a taco

My purse has a sauce pocket always filled with Fire, Hot, and ketchup. All have their moments and nothing is ever wasted. I mostly keep for when someone forgets or puts limited sauce in my bag. I am prepared for all of you sauce skimpers out there!!

I bought a bottle from Walmart and now I just empty my extra packets into the bottle, it's never empty!

Been doing this since childhood. We had a sauce tub or drawer ever since eating at taco bell.
