How about a high level druid whipping a warp wood spell at a vampire's wooden coffin around noon?  Nasty surprise for old "fang face".

Here's one.  A character in our party put magic mouths on his backpack and pockets to shout "Thief...thief" if anyone besides him opened them.

Put a magic mouth on an arrow that activates upon impact after firing.  This can be used to create a diversion over there >>----------------------------------->, far away from where you are trying to do something unnoticed.

How about a magic mouth on a pebble that you can throw down to announce your presence the way a page boy might, e.g. "Here in your presence I announce the great..."

How about having a few scrolls with Explosive Runes on them to leave/post in the dungeon.  E.g. tack one on the door of the monster you're visiting and knock.

We put continual light and continual dark spells on beads. You could throw them into rooms to light up / darken & confuse enemies. You could drop them down a hole to see the bottom, etc.

Here's a creative use: We put a large radius continual dark bead next to 2 short radius continual light beads to achieve a circle of light that didn't penetrate the outer dark shell. (You need 2: the first cancels the darkness inside, and the 2nd provides light.) In this way, we could camp in light without being discovered at night.

And you could throw a continual silence bead into the pile, but then you can't hear if something's coming through the woods at you.
