I used a packet of soy sauce as a bookmark for about a month. What's the weirdest thing you have ever used as a bookmark?

I small ripped piece of Christmas wrapping paper that I found under a chair months later. Blue with snowmen. Also any pamphlet from the mail I can get my hands on will often times be used as a bookmark.
A kitten.To be fair, said kitten climbed onto the book (while I was reading it), curled up, and fell asleep.
Hmm... Now you've got me thinking. What HAVE I used as a bookmark?Bus and train tickets, money, ruler, full sheets of paper (waste not, etc), some random ribbon I found somewhere... nothing really stands out as weird per se.
The most meta would be another book. That's kind of like classic Doctor Who when the Master's TARDIS materialises inside the Doctor's TARDIS and vice-versa and they are stuck in a loop.
Kinda... XD
What are you currently using then? if you don't have a weird one to share. I currently have a dollar bill folded up to resemble a bow tie as my bookmark.
Just a 3D wolf bookmark I got at Barnes and nobles. I also have used bookmarks From indie authors but stopped using them when I thought I had lost one. Don't want to lose future collectible!
I also was using a Bisky letter and stopped for the same reason. ;)

Once I had a bookmark with the picture of a girl who died.I didn't know the person, didn't even attend the funeral. I got it as a thank-you for donating money to the mother to help with the funeral, and I just thought, "cool, a bookmark." It was only when people started asking me who the girl was, and my response was always "you know, I have no idea, but I think she's dead" that I realized how weird it looked.
Then a friend said, "listen, I'm going to get a bookmark for you," and since then I now use a red ribbon.
I wouldn't like to admit that I'm currently using a snot rag to mark my place in Jessie Burton's The Muse.
I keep a couple of my favourite birthday cards to use as book marks - they're quite irreverent ones from my BFF and I don't want to throw them away!I forgot to take anything with me on my recent holiday so ended up using a Hellenic Seaways ferry ticket as a bookmark. I finished the book but kept the ticket.
