For metal pull tabs, the devices pictured in Jan's post are the way to go. Try Starcrest of California for more choices, really reasonably priced with free shipping. I've been buying from them for at least 50 years. (Seems like it. Have they been in business that long?)

I just searched for Starcrest of California and found this site:
www.starcrest.com
Their tab puller is $4.00, and if you order $20.00 worth of anything, shipping is free.
I am not associated with the company, but have been happy with their merchandise. They have stuff I could not find elsewhere.
