Do you use coasters?

Do you have any coasters and actually use them? Or are they somewhere in a cupboard unused? Are there too many coasters everywhere?
Did you notice that any type of craft is applied for making coasters? Oftentimes very very kitsch.

I have coasters to prevent sticky rings and damage to furniture, etc. I buy them as souvenirs from places I visit. More useful than fridge magnets, not that I don't have any of them. The one under the mug of tea I have just drunk is made of ceramic material with a cork base and bears the image of Bletchley Park mansion (see my posts)
