Gallon Ziplocs with folded over cardstock sheets for labels, also keeps them rigid so bags of cables that aren't full don't get buried. I have two bins, one with common stuff in my office and the other stays in the basement with all the weird cables.

Stores do this for every cable (unless it's a box) that's where I originally got the idea. I bought two boxes of small sandwich bags and that's been all I've needed to wrap every spare cable at work and my own cables at home.
Plastic is actually an awesome material, it's just overused. Wrapping sandwiches in these bags seems like the real waste.
Right, so now even more bags are being wasted. That's overuse.
