I bought a bag of 20, stash them all over the place.
A paperclip works fine.
I am the distributor of cell phones where I work. I have a box of these. They’re also useful to reset UniFi and other networking equipment.
I still have the box for my phone with the SIM remover still in it lol

I have two, and I know exactly where they are. If GPS were more accurate, I could give you the GPS coordinates for each of them.
I have about 8 of those. I'm a fucking packrat
If you need any spares, let me know.
Multiple ones.
I have mine under my phone cover. Got sick of losing them all the time when I needed one. Since I put it under the cover, I've only needed it about two times. (Under my cover for over a year).
I have a small zip bag of 100+ of these in a drawer. Sometimes you gotta pop out a SIM card. Other times you gotta hit a pinhole reset button to fix a rogue router. In a pinch, they're also a good shiv or shank.
The ones I have seen most recently are so thin and flimsy that they are worse at the job than a paperclip.
I usually find my thinnest allen wrench and use that.
You only need it when setting up a new phone. So once you put the card in, you put the tool back in the phone’s box and just stick that in a closet.
So I’m asking… how CAN you even misplace one of those?
What do you mean you don't take out the sd card every so often so you can quickly transfer 48GB of cat videos to your computer?
I have 3 lying around somewhere. Comes in handy every few years
false ; I bought a 50 pack
I'm sure I have it in a box somewhere, but paperclips open up SIM slots just as well as SIM tools do.
I have one with a big duct tape flag/handle. Stays in the phone kit with spudgers, tiny screwdrivers, etc.

Lies and slander. I have several, specifically because I am not responsible and lose things often.
I have one in my tech pouch
I've got at least 2 on my desk. Both from my new phones ( the one I accidentally fried in a lake and the replacement I got ). They're both connected to some little piece of magnet strip that I have no idea where it came from.
One in my wallet at all times.
I have dumped like 30 of them into trash recently because I tend to sometimes replace/repair phone parts for people and if you buy a replacement part it comes with this thing.
As foretold 🙏
Why thank you.
Ive always just used a hair pick when I cant find it 😂
