I saw that one too, but it's for SD cards Not MicroSD.
The microSD would just slip out of the pockets.

Don't you get like SD adapter with every microSD?!
I mean, microSD cards are too small to be handled on their own anyways!

Only thing that I've been able to find is this http://www.amazon.com/Micro-SD-Holder-Stor...s/dp/B000Y3W51K
And it's still unclear what is it actually, it looks like it keeps microSD cards, but I'm not quite sure how much!

EDIT: Looks like it holds 4 microSD cards!

Here's the perfect solution.

If you look closely, you can see that the black foam in the top lid has little holes for 9 MicroSD cards. The bottom foam has 3 holes for MicroSD cards, 1 hole for a MiniSD and 1 hole for a regular SD.

Buy two of them (they're only $1), take out the black foam from the top lid of one case, and replace the foam from the bottom lid of the other case. Now you've got one thin, slick aluminum case that holds 18 MicroSD cards very securely. You can stick the other foam back into the other case, but that case won't be as cool because it will only hold 6 MicroSD cards

But it will hold 2 MiniSD and 2 regular SD cards as well, so you can give that case to your stone-age, regular SD card-using mom or grandma.

Hell, I'm going to buy some right now before I go to sleep, since the MicroSD formfactor will be the standard for a long time.

    If I can put my mind past the fact the big pizza places use cheap cheese that isn't 100% cheese, I do like the taste.

    The secret ingredient is having a mixer for the dough and a special pizza oven for the pizza - honestly it makes it easy.
    trying to do it in a regular oven just isn't going to get you 100% there
    but of course cost is an issue for most people. I use the pizza oven twice a week so to me it's worth it

    A little pizza oven like an Ooni is possible but not really practical for me since I'm in an apartment. Would be a pain in the ass plus I gotta store it and what not
