organizing advice from swong??

yes, as we all know...stephanie wong may not be the most organized person. So what if I've lost three phones in the past year??

But here's something that's actually a good idea. A small expandable, 13-pocket folder to hold your receipts. It comes with labels for every month so it's pretty easy to figure out how to organize ur shit. Why would one need to do this..??

Well here are two stories--they're relavent, so just go with me.

1. Yesterday, ms. caroline lavery and I went shopping/job hunting for me. We stopped by Cusp and saw that the shoes she bought a few weeks ago were now on sale. by A LOT. Well since she bought them within 30 days ago, she could just exchange them and get the difference, no biggie...right?? ohhhhhhh but ms. lavery had no idea where that receipt was. meaning...she just lost out on the huuge discount. i know i've done this many times. and its such a bummer :(
   
2. Today i went shopping in Old Orchard and bought these suuuper fun betsey johnson studs. i'll probably be rocking them all of the time so it's not worth posting a picture, haha. Anywayys i first bought them at Bloomie's. (THEY HAVE AN ADDTIONAL 40% OFF SALE GOING ON BTW) But...i later found them at a cheaper price at nordstroms! thank JESUS i had my receipt with me cuz i just returned the other ones and yayyy i saved money.
3. oh, another story -- my dad always asks to see my receipts and i never have all of them with me. haha
   

so...yeah, keeping your receipts is a good idea. You never know when you might need them. And also, it'll help me with the whole keeping-track-of-my-money thing. YEAHH. These folders are a great way to help you do this and they're less than $4 dollars! And think of the possible additional savings you could be getting...

(I looked on Office Max and Office Depot's websites and neither of them sell it online. Sorry.)

OH ps CL--i totes got you one :)
