How do you store/remember to take your meds?

So I really hate taking out meds. I those stupid childproof bottles they give you at the pharmacy. Mine don't have the screw cap on the other side and I can't leave them loose cause I will spill them. I also hate fishing one stupid tiny pill out of the bottle and ending up with like five every time. Between having to get the bottle open and fishing out each med, it becomes a multi-minute process.

Soooo... I dumped them all into a portable soap dish and now I get to treasure hunt. (And yes, I can tell them apart)

However, despite that now I don't actively hate taking them, I still can't remember to actually take them. I use to have an alarm for it, but it doesn't work with my schedule anymore. I can't seem to make it a habit. I'm just curious what other people do.
