Question for GBA owners!

Hello everyone, I had a quick question for all you GBA owners out there. I've had a GBA since launch and I've accumulated about 10 games, now the thing is, I have no idea how to store them. Right now, I just stick them in my nightstand, but my question is, how do you guys store your gba ccartridges?

I've never really had a spot for them. They're all in a shoebox right now.

In my GBA Carrying Case that I want to trade because it scratches the paint off of my Platinum GBA slightly.

I store the games in the little plastic bags they come in, and then I stick them in my GameBoy Color case, along with the GBA. The GBA doesn't really fit in there, but it's really the only thing I have.

Top drawer of my night stand currently, as I moved home to my parents for the summer before starting grad school.

In my apartment I kept them in a small basket on the Lamp table beside the recliner where I always played my GBA.

Since Nintendo stopped packaging them with cases around the time of the GBC, I've been buying third-party plastic cases. I have some plastic GBA cases.

Like this.

I have all the carts jammed into the carrying case that came with it in that KBKids.com deal but it wont hold anything else. Not that big a deal though because if I do go somewhere with it I usually stick the case/lights/batterys in my camera case.

When the system was released, Target had a promotion where if you bought Mario, you got a free carrying case. Some say it's cheap, but it's actually quite nice, holds 8 games, and is a terrific way to get em together. However, I dunno what the availability of them are (ebay?)

I have a gameboy carry case for the ones I'm currently playing. The rest are in their boxes untill I get around to playing them. Then I will just switch them out, putting the played games back in their boxes.
