What's the best way to store a charger in a confined space?

I fold all my chargers almost like a wave, with segments being parallel to each other. Clearly this isn't a good idea, though; I've lost two laptop chargers to this (the bit by the transformer started to break off), and now my Pandora charger. I'm RMAing that along with the unit itself (shipping today *sniff*). I had a similar issue when I wrapped the wire around the transformer. So what are some good ways to store a charger in tight quarters? Because I'll be damned if I lose a fourth charger.

I usually wrap my wires in a small circle the size of my fist, held by a small velcro strip.
 
What if I don't have said strip?


Also, forgot to mention that I've lost two Logitech gamepads this way as well.
 
Like this.

No worries. :D


By the way, way off-topic, I know, but I'd just like to point out that, imho...Nintendo GameCube controllers are the most comfortable controllers to hold out of all the video game controllers ever made.

maybe with your little asian hands
I have fairly big hands and I tend to agree - I don't have significant experience with Xbox controllers, but GCN controllers are definitely easier to handle than PSX ones. A large part of that is probably the weirdly-positioned huge analog sticks, though (I've never been able to handle FPSes on the PS2, never really played PS3 at all). (And I haven't held one in a while.)
