The Tiles arrived today.
Yesterday when we were getting our shingles shot, Vince was talking to the pharmacist that he’s gotten to know and I don’t know how the subject came up but Vince said “She loses everything! She loses her phone at least five times a day!” I said “No more! I ordered Tiles and they’ll be here tomorrow!” His only question – “How much did those cost?” I told him that if they work like I’m hoping they will, I would have paid twice as much for them and that’s all I said.
How does a person like me, who loses everything, decide what four items can get a Tile? The phone doesn’t need one because I can ring it from the web or from any Tile on another device. I asked Vince . . what should I put them on? His response – Your pens, your notebook, your iPad, your iPod, your scissors, your thimble.
Seriously? I haven’t used a thimble in 10 or more years!
I put one on my purse, on on the mini ipad that I use mostly for my Knit Companion and one on my iPod that I use the most. One more . . where shall I use it? I wish I could have a dozen but I can only have four. If I can’t decide where to put the fourth one, I’m going to put it on the old white iPod . . that’s my favorite anyway.
I don’t want to get less careful with where I put things (how could I get LESS careful??) but I think these are going to be a real time saver and frustration eliminator for me, and for Vince because I’m always asking him to call my phone or has he seen my iPod. Win/win!

Great idea! Just remind him how much you will save by not having to buy a new one every time you misplace them. Oh, you could put one on the cookie molds if you ever find them! LOL

So obviously I am out of the loop as to knowing what is new. How do these work and do you have to have a smart phone to track them. I don’t have one of those. Just a regular cell phone. But I came close to losing my wallet at least 4 times this week because we are moving. That was the last thing I needed to lose, and my cell phone also.

Put one on your cookie molds (when you find them!)
vivoaks says
Like you, I should get a dozen of these!! Dear Hubby wouldn’t be happy with the purchase, though, so I’ll continue to lose things. I generally find them eventually….Maybe I need one for me!! 🙂
Sandy says
My solution is to have a place for my keys and always put them there. Same with my purse, my phone, my iPad, etc. My name tag lives in the tote bag I always take to the guild meeting. I find my system saves time and I don’t have to constantly be searching for things.

I don’t understand their pricing at all. The price (when not on sale) for a 2-pack is more than 2 times the price of 1 and the price for a 4-pack is 40% higher than it would be to buy 4 individually. If you’re not getting a discount, it’s really kind of a rip off to buy a 4-pack. .
Judy Laquidara says
I’m not sure where you’re looking. Right now a Tile Style is $25 for one or $45 for two. A Sport is the same price but they show a 4 pack option for $75. Four x $25 is $100. I’m not seeing anything that shows a 4 pack to be higher than buying individually and certainly not 40% higher.
