Idea Exchange: Reusable cards reduce your sticky note consumption

This green idea will save on your sticky note supply.

After observing a sticky note on each of my recall files, I asked a creative team member to design and laminate a reusable card. Now instead of writing each note by hand, the receptionist attaches a reusable card to the file with a paper clip. The card saves time, and since I use fewer sticky notes, it is better for the environment.
