[QUOTE="Star*, post: 113175, member: 4964"] Important papers - are in labeled envelopes for everyone in the house Important papers like deed, home insurance, auto binder, health insurance, = all have copies of and the originals are in a safe Then I have a basket and a bucket Basket - ALL incoming mail is sorted the minute I come in the house into 3 categories BILLS (put in basket), Junk (Bucket), Fun - read right then. The bucket mail gets shredded - invest in a shredder that you can cut up CD thickness. I have called each of my collectors so that the bills are all due on around or about the same day. You can call and change it. Then I sit down on the 5th of each month and write checks, hit the online pay (Your bank may also organize all on line bills for you to pay with a click) I then stamp them paid, and file them in a month folder. Jan - Dec. At the end of the year - I shred all those that have cleared because where I live - I've had problems with several utilities saying I didn't pay when I had - and had to prove it in paper. It works for me - and the beauty is - if I get sick or can't get to the computer - DF can pull the paper bills - and pay them as he is not computer savy at all. [/QUOTE]
