RE: Organizing PG Counters
I use 2x3 baggies for each unit type (available from WalMart in 100 count packs for $1.00 - a penny a baggie). And I do mean EACH unit type. I hate the Germans because they have so many different vehicle types. Some of the more numerous types (INF and leaders mostly from some games) go into a 3x5 baggie.
After all the unit types are in their unit baggies I then separate them into three categories: Infantry (included leaders), guns and vehicles. I then put all the INF types into one snack size baggie (or sandwich baggie if needed). These baggies are then packed into the box.
For example I just punched Kursk: South Flank (and got the dirty fingers to prove it). The Heer INF, SS INF, Heer vehicles and SS vehicles all got their own snack baggie while the Heer and SS guns went into one baggie since there are not a lot of them.
For the supplements I do the same thing only I have bigger gallon sized baggies to hold the different nationalities of the supplement. I keep all my supplements in a bankers box with the counter baggies filling in the box. For the supplements I also put the supplement name on a scrap of paper so I can see what supplement the counters go to without having to dig into it.
This works for me but I know people process information differently so it may not work for them.
