tip of the week (8/9/2009)

August 9 – August 15, 2009 this week’s "tip of the week" was sent from Jamie, from South Bend, IN

Jamie writes: "I had a problem with actually throwing or giving magazines away that still had things I wanted in them.

What I decided to do was to go through each one, rip the magazine at the spine and pull the particular items out that I still wanted to read or keep for future reference.

I had several piles such as recipes, fitness tips and exercises, finance tips, stories, etc.

I bought sheet protectors and binders and placed all the tips in their own labeled binder in a sheet protector.

Now if I'm looking for a new recipe or if I'm in the mood for exercising, I can pull that specific binder out.

I put what's left of the magazine in the recycle bin.”
