Best Answer

The pull tabs which are most desirable for fundraising are pure aluminum, and aluminum is a non magnetic metal. By passing a magnet over or through your collection of tabs you can separate the non aluminum tabs which will yield a lower price per pound.

Do magnets attract all objects?

No. Magnets can pull other magnets towards them, or push them away from them. If a magnet's north pole points towards another magnets north pole (or a south pole towards a south pole), they will repel, instead of pulling them towards them. On the other hand, if a magnet is brought near a piece of iron that is not already magnetic, it will induce magnetism in the iron, in such a way that the two magnets will attract one another. Yet on the other hand, magnets have hardly any influence on most substances.
