I am trying to have a serious clear out, but don't really know the importance of all this stuff? Does anyone?


I keep just about everything, find a box or a drawer (I use a top drawer in the kitchen), and just pack it all in there! ;)

:lol:

Actually, I've thought about this some more.

I've only been 'hoarding' these types of documents for about a year. Before that I rarely kept reciepts, and I have a product from a while ago that I want to get replaced - I don't have the reciept for it :(

Keep everything! How much space does it take up, anyway?
