I just spent some free time printing out five-who knew there were so many?!!-pressed penny lists that I will be using on my upcoming trip in September, one for each of the parks and one for the resorts. I need advice on how to keep these handy while in the parks!! I'm afraid that I'll just fold them up and stuff them in my fanny pack-never to be seen again until after my trip is over!!! I want them accessible for easy reference! Any suggestions?? We will be doing some resort hopping on our first day, and I think I might bind the resort list in a flexible folder since it's the largest.

Thanks in advance!

I was wondering where you got your list? I have a collection started 2 years ago and look forward to adding to it.

Thanks
 
What I did was took the lists to a copy machine and shrunk them to a small size and then put them on 3X5 cards, one for each park and one for the resorts. Then I would put the list in my fanny pack based on which park I thought we would be at that day. Not a bad plan except when I went to two parks and only had one list. But it was a step in the right directions and this didn't take up a lot of space in the fanny pack.
 
The definitive pressed penny list is here

I've been collecting for awhile, so I only have to keep a list of which ones I need, so I only have to keep track of one page that I've pulled together and edited in Word. I take it and my pin list and fold them really small and keep them in my pocket.
 

I don't collect flat pennies, but I do collect pins, and because I have so many I have to bring a list with me too. My list is typed on both sides of the paper, in the smallest font I can read, and its about 5 double-pages long so far. I have the pages stapled together and I just fold it into quarters and put it into my fanny pack. Then each time I pass a pin stand and I look for pins, I take out my list and (TRY TO) find out if its one I already have. I have them listed alphabetically, not by parks, so I don't need to keep separate lists. I bring a second copy with me as back up in case I lose it, or it rips or gets damaged. (One time it got wet right through my fanny pack while on the Kali River rapids! Fortunately I had my backup list back at the hotel).
