    What do you guys keep your index cards in?

    I see a lot of people keeping their index cards in clear plastic pockets.. Where are you guys getting them from?

    Staples sells the ones from smead, but they look kind of flimsy.. Any thoughts?

    Re: What do you guys keep your index cards in?

    I buy mine from office depot. They are the 2- 4x6 per sheet pages and then I cut them and tape them to the tubs. They feel flimsy but have held up nicely.

    Re: What do you guys keep your index cards in?

    If you search Adhesive Vinyl Envelopes at google you can find a ton of sites that sell clear envelopes that stick to the tub for almost every size of card. I wish I saved the website I got mine from on this computer, but I figured I'd just throw this info in here. But they work awesome to keep the cards dry and handy to see!

    Hope this helps!

    I print my own 8x10 cards then have them laminated at staples and use dry erase markers that are easy to wipe and reuse whenever. Don't use pockets I rest the index card under or to the side of the tub in the rack.
