I'm curious. There is so much fuss and bother about identity theft. Personally, no banking or credit card stuff goes into the trash. Everything else just gets ripped up and then I pile in the dog poop on top of it. I figure that might be a pretty good deterrent.
Is it worth buying a shredder?
What do you do?

I know I should, but I am too lazy to get the shredder set up and run everything through it. All my paper goes straight to the recycling bin,
Restrangled..
I wouldn`t be without a shredder..
All paper work go`s into the shredder before it`s disposed of..
Period..
It will be the best money spent since your new doggy bed..

Not that I am all that concerned about identity left, If some one can do more with my identity then I can well more power to them, maybe I will move in with them then.
It really takes little effort to shred papers, even after shredding I tend to put coffee grounds or other foodstuff into the same bag.
My stuff really isn't worth stealing, but this way I know it won't be from the trash. I have seen enough scams in my lifetime to know that people do go through trash to get numbers and info. from people. I don't even like them knowing who I bought from or who I have accounts with, let alone the papers that contain the account numbers. I shred envelopes and all from incoming mail.
I love shredding!!
It makes me feel important, like "Hahaha!! That will never fall into the wrong hands!!"
I shred.
BTW, a little shredder doesn't cost much.

I shredded about half of a NWT bible to make gift confetti for last years christmas. It makes for a very fine quality confetti I must say, and you'd be surprised at the volume (a kitchen garbage bag full) that comes just from the pentateuch.
