That cashier at Home Depot gave me a cable management tip I still use today

I was buying some zip ties and a cheap raceway kit about a year ago and this older guy ringing me up just goes "you know, you don't gotta hide every wire. Just bundle em tight and run em along the desk leg with some clips." Honestly, I had been trying to tape everything under the desk and it always looked messy. He also told me to use velcro straps instead of zip ties so I can move stuff later. That one conversation saved me like 40 bucks on fancy covers I didn't need. Anyone else get a random tip from a stranger that totally worked?

Leo's got a point but you can reuse velcro if you're not rough with it.

Velcro straps wear out way faster than zip ties though.
