What does it matter? You're never going to get to use it anyway. ;)

Then after that it also says to keep them away from bright lights or sunlight.

I keep them in the wallet short term when there is potential use anyway (no place else convenient), but it is towards the side of the wallet farthest from body heat the way I put it in my pocket, and with about 25 different cards (credit cards, discount cards, IDs, metrocard, laundry card, etc), and a lot of bills the wallet is about 2.5-3" thick, so this keeps it from getting too much body heat. Would not trust them kept this way long term tho.


This is a prime example of someone who is not getting laid and thinking way too hard about it...lol

do like I do and tape a couple to the front of your hat

I usually just pop a few Viagra and put one on my peepee before leaving the house. That way I won't forget where I put it.

:laugh: you said peepee :laugh:

yeah dude...you could show everyone the "ring" that shows up on your wallet from the outside. :roll:

The ring just tells me you never take it out of your wallet
