Put it, along with the documentation for whatever the thing is, and tape (packing tape works well) to the back of the thing. When it comes time to move or do something that requires the manual and/or tools, you have both the tools and documentation easily at hand and not lost in some junk drawer somewhere.

Every 10th one you add to the drawer you get a prize.

I did this with my new daybed: tucked/taped the instructions, key and extra screwthingies under the mattress, so if it's ever moved or sold they'll be visible as soon as you take off the mattress to start.

I like to put it all in a zipper sandwich bag together and tape that to the thing

I have a couple of them saved, but I have sets of actual tools that include Allen wrenches. So, I don't keep most of them. I do keep the instructions with the item, though.
