Tip #37 – Stop getting Statements

STOP getting any kind of statements in the mail (bank, credit cards and even most utilities).  It will cut down on mail to sort, file and even shred.  If you really need to look at a hard copy print it from the website but most of the time you do not need to do that!  Most places have previous bills available for at least a year if not longer if you need a copy quick (otherwise you may just have to request it and wait a few hours).

STOP writing checks!  Banks have free bill pay and you totally control the payments and you don’t have to pay for stamps.
