I just threw away 1,000 floppy disks. I kept the polyolefin (Tyvek) sleeves for CDs & DVDs. They fit right into the floppy file boxes you can pick up at garage sales for a buck a piece.

Did you really mean floppy disks (the 5.25" kind)
or did you mean the rigid 3.5" diskettes?

5.25"? huh.....

I don't think I have that many, probably only a few hundred. Somewhere I have a box of "new" 160k disks, I think.

I have a few boxes of 8" floppies too. And some drives they fit into.
