One thing I love is cheap solutions to expensive problems. I decided to post a few of mine. Surely people have thought of these before but maybe they'll be useful for some.

I'm always worried about destroying my expensive cell phone if I happen to fall in the drink while paddling out to the boat, or having it accidentally leap out of my closed pocket. Securing it in my bags doesn't help, what if they fall in?

So I keep my phone in a zip lock bag. With a little air in the bag it even floats as you can see in the picture. Best of all, it still works. You can hear, talk, see and manipulate the phone very well right through the bag so no need to take it out to use it.

I know the title says "Free" but I figured a zip lock bag is close enough to free. :)
