I use baggies for everything. When all my bills are paid I put all the invoices in a baggie and put the month/year on the outside. That way if I ever have to go back to find something it's easy. I used to use folders but when I would pick them up all the stuff would fall out.

I use the envelope from my Qwest bill since it's the biggest one I have. All my stubs and receipts and invoices are all in one envelope. Then I file it under that month. At the end of the year, all I have to do is pull out 12 envelopes and put them in a big manilla envelope with the year on it. That makes it easy for me.

Pattie, God bless you! I finally found something to help organize bills that even I can do. LOL Thank you .
Thanks Pattie! this is the tip I have been waiting for. I could never figure out how to keep everything together.
I don't see a need for saving all these papers unless of course you have a business maybe. I do online banking and if I every have a need for a particular statement it's easy to get it from the institution.
Thank you so much for sharing. I, too have used file folders with paper clips but this has not worked. I'm going to start this today.
