All our bills, medical “statement of wasted paper” pay stuff et.al. get tossed into a box marked with the appropriate year. What that box is 2yrs old anything in it is shredded. Everything is online and if we need it for what ever reason, we can go pull it out of digital archive. I’ve never had to go looking for any of it.
Car part/service receipts get dropped in the bottom drawer of my tool box.
Taxes are kept in their own box, no shred.
I’m confused how a grown ass man can shed tears over someone else’s dog. But I’m an asshole, so I likely will never understand.
