Default Ok, this may be a dumb question......

What do you all do with your swipe cards for the gates so you don't lose them?
Having just gotten ours, it has become a hassle when we are at TV trying to keep track of and not lose them, but yet have handy for their use.
I am open to all ideas!

We put one in the sunglass holder in our van. Above our heads. The other goes in the locked glovebox we had installed in our golfcart.

Default Swipe Cards

I put ours on a"Key Chain"type chain along witha mail box key and I hang it on the signal light lever.Going on ten years in TV and no problems.Scan cards aren't as hot an item as they once were due to the fact that you can gain access faster by pushing the button than you can by using the card.I have no idea why they even bother to issue them any longer.

I keep mine in my wallet. Don't even have to take it out of the wallet for it to work. just hold my whole wallet up to the sensor, and it opens.

Default Velcro

We have velcro on the dashboard and another piece on the card. Works well and always stays put.

Neat bumper sticker. Went like this: "It's God's job to judge terrorists. Our job is to arrange the meeting!"

Be a gentleman, remove your hat/cap when entering a building and dining out!
