    Just buy picks in batches of 50 or so and leave them all around your house, in your guitar case, your pockets, your wallet and anywhere else you can think of. Let's see those feckin' goblins get them then!

    The sock demons are the worst. They never steal pairs of socks.

    I'm moving in a month, I'm expecting to find hundreds. If not I'm drenching the place in holy water.

    i lost bout 100 picks last year from leaving them just anywhere till i got into the habit into just putting em in my pocket when i finished a set or practise, it dosent sound like anything special but its saved me a fortune so far as i don't lose near half as many

    Back years ago when I was learning guitar I used to always lose them, after about two years of having to buy more and more I came home with a load of new ones, my ma says to me "why do you keep buying more when there's already a tonne in your round box?" Turns out, any time my ma saw one anywhere she kept "tidying" them away. I had no idea.

    I tend to find most of mine jammed into the pump of the washing machine.

    I'm pretty sure that when you're generating Mojo while playing guitar your plectrums, socks and those scraps of paper that have the numbers of unbelievably-cute-girls-that-inexplicably-find-your-hairy-ape-face-attractive-in-dim-pub-lighting on 'em get transferred over to the Other Side(tm) to serve you in the afterlife. Not sure what good they are to you over there but you never hear Jimi Hendrix moaning about how he's surrounded by useless f'ing picks on Most Haunted do you? So they must be ace!
