I keep a stack of expired credit cards, plastic hotel keys, & etc. (and all
those stupid AARP cards I get in the mail) next to my glue. They are reusable if
you get to them soon enough, otherwise disposable. And I date the glue when I
buy it, buy small bottles and generally discard and buy fresh for anything
important. Glue is the most inexpensive part of any project.
