I don't use them. Some are very tight and after a few years of less the facing and table can warp. I lower the reed down so there isn't much of a chance of the reed getting wrecked.
Same with tightening metal ligatures. Just enough to hole the reed on plat and not to dent the actual mouthpiece.
Buy stands for your clarinet. If I'm recording a movie I may have 2 stands 1 for a clarinet and an alto sax and the other for the tenor sax and a soprano sax. These neatly fold up in your case. If the corner of the tip of the reed is chipped a tiny bit and it plays, I surely won't throw it out and keep using it. I may also clip the reed tip and readjust the reed. Some reeds are worth saving as the cane is amazing and will last about 6 weeks or more.
I think I may have chipped more reeds putting on that mouthpiece cover. Also nicked the tip of the mouthpiece.
