Why did I keep bank statements from 20016? payslips from 1998, and so on............
Hubby is self employed so has to keep accounts info for 7 complete tax years, so we do the same for personal banking stuff too. We have 1 file of things that need keeping for longer, but everything else gets a once a year shred session.
And yes, our shredder only works for a while before it gets the grump on and refuses to shred any more.Outstanding mortgage: £23,181 (December 19)

Kitchen floor mopped, and I'm still not entirely sure what brought that burst of activity on.0 -
ATB shredding is WIP the shredder has stopped due to being too hot, I have over worked it.
I have sorted paperwork, to contain the papers while working, one wash basket full for recycling, ie not personal details, one wash basket 3/4 for shredding, all wanted papers back in neat, label, date ordered.
