Baskets, junk drawers, boxes what are they costing you?

We all have them... places that we stash things until we have time to deal with them. Ask anyone and they will say they have a junk drawer of some sort... going though a junk drawer may see like an awful and time consuming task but it really is not.

I did it and it took 20 minutes.


I made 4.74 in change, found my watch battery, favorite gold earrings, a gift certificate for pizza, pizza coupons, a glove I thought I lost, a receipt I needed to submit to my insurance, my husbands lapel pin.

I was :missing: all of these things... so now I have a gallon of gas, a pizza dinner, money back on my insurance and I don't have to buy another battery either.

Plus I did not mention the garbage, paper & receipts that have already been accounted, empty boxes, lint things that did not belong in this drawer that I put in the drawers they belong in.

Ever have an empty junk drawer? Ever think this could happen?
It did for me when I thought it could not!

In 20 minutes I feel so accomplished... why not tackle your junk drawer today?
