If you are afraid you'll be out of cell range when you want to use Gmail, you can also get a "pad" of a few codes that can be used any time.

There are other ways as well. What I use is the
Google Authenticator phone app, which generates a 6-digit code that you need to enter after your password. This is more convenient as you don't need network coverage (and SMS is unreliable), and is more secure than the printed set of password you can use as well.
