Where to get standard SD card cases?

I've searched for a while and even ordered some from Amazon which in the picture were what I wanted, yet when they arrived were not (too large).
I am looking for the regular size secure digital clear cases that used to come with most SD cards but now many manufacturers don't include them.
 
Yes. It's easy to find some SD card cases but not easy to find the slim, small ones like came with the cards. The aftermarket ones I'm finding are thicker and larger and do not fit in my card holders. Seeing how many manufacturers have stopped including cases with the cards, maybe the empty cases will become available as more people start needing them.
We have a system where each camera bag has a card holder with some SD cards. They are a good convenient size and work well with regular size SD cases. The Pelican cases are nice for sure, but are larger and more expensive than I need considering I have card holders already for each camera.

More expensive.... Not in my opinion. At around $17.00 for a case that holds 12 cards, that's around $1.42 a card for a water tight hard case that don't get lost anywhere as easily as those tiny clear cases.
 
You are correct about that. I should have said an added expense / additional purchase since I already have many card holders for the sd cards with clear cases.
I have nothing against the pelican cases. They are more rugged than what we have, but also larger and not really what we need for normal operation.
It's funny because I checked with my family today and traded them some of my new large cases for small ones so now I have enough clear cases for all my SD cards for at least another year or so. :)
