A storage device for electrical cords, the storage device formed of an elongated, cylindrical tube having a first open end and a second open end and an interior wall. Disposed in one of the ends are a plurality of inwardly projecting teeth, tabs or fingers that engage the open loops of a folded, bundled cord. Disposed on at least a portion of the interior wall is a webbing or tactile material, thereby further inhibiting the bundled cord from sliding out of the elongated tube. In one embodiment of the invention, the teeth are formed by providing a wall in the end of the tube, which wall is provided with radial slots or slits extending out from the axis of the elongated tube, thereby forming said teeth. Preferably, said wall is formed of a rigid or semi-rigid material, such as rubber or plastic such that the inwardly projecting teeth are of sufficient rigidity that they grasp a bundled cord inserted therethrough and support the weight of the tube on the cord, but of sufficient flexibility so as to partially deflect when a cord is inserted or withdrawn through the teeth.
