Went into garage & emptied 6 file cabinet's of all q's, & started a bonfire. I quit!!!!!! Can't find any forms, no place to keep my stuff with grandkids living here, so just solved all my problems. GOODBYE!!!!!

I know where you're coming from. A few years ago we were getting ready to move from Louisianna to Oklahoma and I was trying to prepare my office for the movers/packers. I had two huge trash bags full of proofs that I had never gotten around to filing. I was stressing out because I just couldn't find time to go through it all....so I picked up 2 bags of stress and put them on the curb for the trash men to pick up the next day. It was soooo liberating..LOL

2|1|Me too but not refunding related.....|maraj|maraj64@hotmail.com|17:39:10|03/21/2009|
Stress related tho. :( I told my son he should probably think about moving out before he turns 18 next month, & that I wanted all the other boys' band equipment out of my basement by next wkend or it's going out on the curb. I just can't take it anymore. His friends come here & act like they own the place, helping themselves to whatever's in the fridge/cupboard, making a mess & don't clean it up, taking showers & now, doing their laundry here, & not 1 of them ASKS or says "thank you" for anything. Since Sept., they've been holding their band practice in my basement w/EVERY light on so I get NO peace from all the racket, & since Sept., I've been putting up w/this "free for all" biz. I've tried talking to my son calmly & in private & I've tried yelling, in private & w/his friends around. It does nothing. I've had enough & I think they all need to get a taste of REALITY!
Please identify yourself in 1st email. If I haven't traded w/you before, I will require *legit* trade references & will gladly provide the same.

don't have time to organize it and I have bins of fabrics everywhere for my home biz, enough clutter already.
I been thinking of giving away my file cabinet as I don't use it anyway, and right now just taking up space in my living room..

And if nothing else, when he sees you mean business, he'll open his eyes and respect you and your home.|saint6811|waylan@comcast.net|18:55:27|03/21/2009|
"Middle age is when you choose your cereal for the fiber, not the toy." 5|1|I did the same thing last summer....|Sharon|s_forshee@hotmail.com|21:15:46|03/21/2009|
when I had to clean out my refunding room as well as rest of the house to get ready for the painters, throwing out 7 bag fulls of proofs, never filed, plus 90% of proofs that I got tired of keeping, just put it all in the garbage next day. What a huge relief not to worry about it anymore and less junk in my room too!! I do very little refunds since forms are scarce, but I do save more using coupons every week that double to 99 cents, so rather do that instead. Most proofs I save now are just a few and throw out the rest and don't feel guilty about it either!! Sharon:) 6|1|i did that. since 955 of what ise nd out does not require an actual upc i don't bother to save them any more|ppe1952|MATWELL3@ROCHESTER.RR.COM|08:38:37|03/22/2009|
if i really want to do an offer that takes a upc i trade for them. no big bags or boxes of upc's around here any more.

7|1|I've done that with inserts ...m...|Isha|tm2ewing@sbcglobal.net|13:17:46|03/22/2009|
I used to get so many inserts every week that it was virtually impossible to keep up with.. Every 6 months or so I just toss everything and start over.. It is very liberating... I always think after a major clean it will get better but it never did... Now I keep my inserts to under 20 a week and order extras that I want.... Even with that few I still end up tossing tons... lol

8|1|Donna, wish you all the best on your|destiny|destinyroger@yahoo.com|16:36:49|03/23/2009|
vacation. Your, personal leave.. hopefully, after all the stress is gone and you've had time to clear your head and rest, come back to us... maybe just a little?? But it's understandable and I wish you all the best.
So very little refunds are calling for actual proofs anymore anyway, i've started burning all my files too and just keeping what i've not filed for the past year, you know, we all have one or two or more, those big black lawn bags full of proofs that some day we want to file away nice and neat? I mean, whens the last time we've used Heinz and Ore ida upcs? How about Folgers, laundry soap and bath soap upcs? We don't need all this...
HUGS!
