I used a cheap plastic organizer for my game tokens and it was a total mess

I bought a set of those little plastic boxes with dividers from a dollar store for my Terraforming Mars bits. After one game night, the lids popped open in my bag and everything mixed together. It took me 45 minutes to sort all the metal cubes from the plant and energy tokens. I learned that flimsy dividers are worse than no dividers at all for heavy pieces. What do you guys use to keep your game bits from becoming a soup in the box?

Honestly, I've had the opposite problem. Those flimsy dividers are the worst, but I found no dividers just means everything slides into one big pile anyway. I use little ziplock bags now, it's way less fuss.

Totally get that. I tried going without dividers once and my pens just became a tangled mess. Ziplock bags are a smart fix for keeping small stuff separate. Might steal that idea for my own junk drawer chaos.

Actually found a solid middle ground with tackle boxes meant for fishing gear. Those cheap craft store dividers are a total joke, but the sturdier plastic bins with real latches are a game changer. They cost a bit more but they don't pop open and spill everything. My Scythe coins have lived in one for years and it's still perfect.
