If you’ve finished your tax returns, we (and presumably Office Depot) want to congratulate you. It’s never a fun task, but being done with that chore for another year must feel good. Or at least, it would if you didn’t still have to get rid of all those old documents you found in a search through your records to complete the darn things in the first place. Sometimes, it seems like half the battle is deciding which documents and envelopes you can safely shred.
While we certainly don’t recommend you ditch any records you could need later in an audit, we know of a way you can lighten your load from the unnecessary paper filler. Between now and the end of the day on Tuesday, April 16, you can use this coupon from Office Depot to take advantage of up to five pounds of FREE paper shredding. Office Depot offers this coupon through its Copy & Print section, and is valid in-store only.
So, now that you’ve found that 13-year-old statement from a bank account you no longer have at a bank that has since gone out of business, you can let Office Depot take care of it for you. And you can get back to reveling in your triumph over Tax Day 2013.
