Best Results Organizing

Have you finished up (or are you finishing up) your taxes, only to find that you have a ridiculous “to shred” pile?

Tax time is the perfect opportunity to clear out your file folders, your desk drawers, your purses and wallets and pockets, and shred all the receipts and documents you don’t need to support your taxes. (Not sure what papers you need to keep? We’ve got you covered!)

That mountain of receipts from the coffee truck outside your building? Gone!

Three-inch stacks of cable bills dating back to your first apartment? Ciao!

Frequent flyer loyalty mile statements from airlines that long ago merged with the big guys? Buh-bye!

You know how important it is to shred the documents that you no longer need for tax, legal or proof-of-ownership purposes, because merely tossing them in the trash could make you ripe for identity theft. But you also know that once your shred pile is as tall as a third-grader, your personal shredder is going to wimp out after about fifteen minutes.

Happily, tax season does bring one advantage: an onslaught of Tax Day Freebies, the most Paper Doll-ish of all being Office Depot’s coupon for up to 5 pounds of shredding — for FREE — from now through April 29.

This photo is just a facsimile. So, click on the above link, print it out, clip it, gather up your shredding and get that pile of paper clutter out of your office (or off your kitchen table).

Declutter, protect your identity and save money? Paper Doll approves this messages!
