A thrifty way to use autoclave tape

In my practice, we try to find a variety of ways—both large and small—to save money. We use masking tape to close our packs and all things autoclaved and then put a small piece of autoclave tape on the masking tape to show that it has been sterilized. This makes the autoclave roll of tape stretch much farther for the cost.
