Staying organized is always a challenge. Stuff collects and gets out of hand.

There are lots of everyday throw-away items you can use to stay organized. Get creative in your search. Instead of looking at an object's label, look at its size and shape. Match that to what you're trying to store and you've got a winning combination. You'll be able to save a few coins and pat yourself on the back for being so clever.
