I have been all my life. I WISH I had a file cabinet at a young age much like you. Boy, did I ever miss out. My favorite paper tip: Begin where your paper piles are located and move forward from there. Remember that if you piles are located in a specific space, THAT may be the BEST PLACE for your paper action file to be housed if possible. (I am not talking about your 4 drawer file cabinet, just your lateral paper action file.) I appreciate that you are sharing the tips. Vicki Winterton Maja;

I hate looking for dates on receipts, you never know if it is month-day-year or day-month-year. And you never know where the date will be. I will do that for sure! Also, let me stress the importance of the label maker in your filing cabinet. I have really n ice printing, I get compliments on it all the time so I didn't think I needed to use the label maker because my printing was good enough. My husband did the files one year and used the label maker and WOW! what a difference. It is all uniform and way, WAY easier to read. Since then we always use the label maker. Love it Maja!

Some stuff you might want to keep the actual item but some stuff a picture is good enough. Plus, then if you scrapbook you can easily put it in there.
