First Impressions of Freedom Filer

A few nights ago I set up my Freedom Filer system, and I couldn’t be happier with the results so far. I was able to put everything together in a few hours, and once the system was in place, I felt like a huge weight of clutter had been lifted from my shoulders. I’ve already started filing away my tax documents and slowly but surely, I’m moving the rest of my paper items into the Freedom Filer. Once I’ve filed everything away and have started using it consistently for a few months, I’ll have a better idea of its long-term utility, but for now I’m incredibly pleased with my initial experience. Stay tuned for another blog post with more progress on my journey toward filing zen.

A single filing drawer for all of my papers. What a comforting sight.

I can't wait to tackle the intimidating pile of papers scattered around my apartment.

    You are definitely convincing me that I need to get on this. I have file folders and labels already, but this seems to take all the hassle out of it for you. Might be worth the investment if it's this useful. šŸ™‚

      Yes, and I’m finding that it has tabs for even the most specific of items, and blank tabs so you can write in specific filing needs. The biggest hurdle will be to sift through all of my loose papers and find a home for them in the system. I literally have thousands of items to sort through. šŸ™

          Awesome! I wish I had found that coupon when I bought it, but oh well. You’ll have to update me on how you like it. šŸ™‚
