Stupid question about filter covers

How do people recommend carrying around filters? I have a grand total of one loose filter which doesn't have a cover (I've been keeping it in the original packaging, which isn't terribly practical and which would probably break open if I tried to haul it around in a bag).

    I saw a guy who screwed them all together and kept two old scratched ones on either end. I'm waiting till I have two old scratched ones:D

    For the mean time I just keep them in their original boxes. Not had one pop open on me yet. (When it does I'll be 1 closer to my two ends:D )

    There are filter wallets for 3 or more filters at most camera stores (not the little ritzes in the malls type).......good luck

    Actually, there are metal caps for stacked filters. This is how I carry mine...

    I'm a glass filter user. So I keep them in folders. No worries.
