Imagine yourself after a tiring, calories-burning two hour session at the gym. You could barely flinch a single muscle, yet you dragged yourself to the locker room to get your stuff. Once there, you took your sports bag and head towards your car, fervently wishing for your bed and Chinese takeout. So, you eagerly zipped open your bag and sought the soothing coldness of your car keys. Yet after minutes of searching, you could not locate your keys. Feeling a surge of panic (infused with frenzying images of your bed and your Chinese dinner dancing before your eyes) you emptied the content of your bag and realized that, not only your keys were missing, but your NEW Gucci purse was replaced by an odd-looking black wallet, and worse, you failed to recognize any item that filled the bag. Gasping in panic and out of sheer fatigue, a dark thought settled onto you: someone had switched his/her sports bag with yours, meaning not only have you lost your keys, but also your important documents and other possessions.

Has this ever happened to you- Losing your sports bag because of its similarity with another person’s? Losing something as big as a sports bag proves to be a nuisance to everyone, even to those rich and famous who could afford to buy a new bag and replace the things that were in the previous bag. Because, the truth is, it is not so much of the bag that you need to urgently replace, but the important documents such as identification card, credit cards, driving license and premier ticket to the latest Harry Potter movie. The most agonizing process of all is of course, reporting the losses of these documents and registering for new ones, which would definitely be timely. In a few rare cases, some nice souls would take the trouble and contact you to give you back your bag, but in the current, I-am-my-own-island world, most people would just see this act as burdensome and time-consuming, hence they would just ignore the problem and continue using your bag and sometimes, even the items in it!. So to avoid this from occurring again, or from ever happening to you, try this simple, non-costly solution: tag your sports bag!
