    Depends on the time I get it and the kind of sticker.

    Is it anything remotely tech related? Goes on a laptop. Else: drawer for an undefined amount of time.

    If I go out of my way to buy one, I already know where it’s going.

    I have almost nothing i put stickers on, so i keep them in a drawer. When i get a new laptop or something appropriate, i pick a few out and stick them on.

    My fridge is covered in pride stickers. Any time I get something that’s gay or has rainbows, it immediately goes on the fridge

    When I come across a sticker I really like, like a band at a show or something, I usually buy 2 so I can stick one somewhere without much thought and put the other in a drawer for these reasons

    The trick is to cut out the sticker (with the film underneath) and use paste gum to just place it where you want it. You can then remove it and stick it somewhere else whenever you want.

    I used to be like this but then started pre-deciding items that would be just plastered with stickers so I can just buy whatever cool stickers I want, knowing there’s a place for them.

    My water bottle and laptop for example are now covered in stickers

      I bought a chunk of foam presentation board and put it in those metal snap together frames where you can buy two sides at a time for $10 so you can mix and match the lengths to get the size you need and now I have a “sticker wall” that I can take with me from apartment to apartment.

      I fairly recently learned that they sell covers that go over laptops so you can move between employers and bring your sticker collection with you (and bonus, not annoy your IT department as much).

      See I’d argue if I buy a single sticker it was with purpose and I know exactly where I am going to put it (car, laptop, mug, whatever…). But if it’s a random sticker given to me I’d agree with OP.

        Just buy a pack. They’re stickers. They cost nearly nothing to manufacture. Me and my friends upload sticker motives to Eastern European online copyshops all the time and order 100 at a time, then split the bill. It’s dirt cheap.

    The secret is to just have a sticker area and then cover it in shit

    That’s why the one wall in my little office nook is covered in anime characters and such
