I keep concert tix too, cuz you pay a buttload of $$$ to see the showz, so why not keep them as complimentary mementoz?

I’d get rid of the transit cardz cuz they just remind me of the subway stationz and those are dirrty and piss me off.

PS…I might be mistaken, but the movie ticket in the upper left hand corner looks like it’s for a film called “The Cock.” Care to elaborate/explain/share?

I organized all my husbands stubs, etc. from when he was growing up and added them into his photo album (it’s a 3 ring binder type). So that may be another solution.

My point is, maybe you could do that as well. Spend 5 bucks on a cheap journal and just write them all down. Then you wouldn’t need to keep them. I dont see a need for the metro cards myself. but the concert tickets, I’d probably hang onto. At least for a little bit longer. Maybe when you get to NY, you’ll see you have no room or whatever for them, and pitch them then. Or myabe not. Depends on how sentimental you are.

Good luck!

HUGS….

First, why keep the metro cards? Don’t you have other mementos of your trips to the cities they are from? No one ever talks about the places they’ve been and then showed their collection of train tickets. “Oh yes! I remember this train ride quite vividly; there was a homeless-looking man sleeping in the aisle!”

Second, when I look through my collection of movie ticket stubs, I can’t even remember 85% of the movies or what they were about. How is a ticket stub going to remind you of the movie? Isn’t that what Netflix and buying them is all about?

Finally, tickets to concerts, galleries, and such can be much more easily displayed for “coolness factor” (just look at your header) and can provide a focal point for topic of conversation. Also, they have the most and best memento value.

Again, my vote: throw away all except Exhibit A.
