I had been looking for a postal scale and came across an auction on eBay for a deal that seemed too good to be true. I bid on and won a WeighMax Digital Postal Scale 50 Lb x 0.2 oz scale. My total cost, including shipping, was $11.99. The unit is sleek and unobtrusive sitting on my desk, and comes in a variety of colors to suit your office decor. This scale has been a lifesaver for selling on e...

Fridge brand insulated six-pack holder has a nice front pocket and attractive colors.These lunch boxes or six-pack coolers, whichever you call them, seem to generally last for about 4-5 years for me.  That seems reasonable, since I refuse to pay more than about $6 for one.Since the lining of one I had been using for quite a while was ripped I had been looking for another one.  I found...

When my son was living in the dorm at Ohio State he wanted to put up some posters, but was worried about damaging the paint on the walls.  The rooms were inspected when you move out, so he didn't want to have to pay for marking up the walls.I had always heard of the Command strips, but have never tried them until now.  They worked perfectly for hanging the posters and there was no...

As a seller on ebay I grew tired of estimating how much an item weighed and then loosing money on postage fees collected because I guessed on the weight.  Many times I would have to pay more to ship a package than what I had quoted in my auction.  That grew old very fast.I found this little 5 lb. digital scale on sale at Office Max and since the majority ...

I've worked for the same employer for 20 years, a few different offices, the last one for 10 years.  I had this hard plastic chairmat for probably most of that time.  I HATED it!!  It moved everytime I moved my chair.  Every morning I would come in, move my chair and shove that darn mat back in it's place!  When my boss got herself this new mat that never seemed...

What a handy gadget my office three-hole paper punch is! I have a little printer in my office that I call "the Dinosaur". It is a continuous feed, very old Lexmark printer that prints on paper that has no ledger holes in it. That would be okay, except that a lot of these reports have to be kept in notebooks for easy access in case of a corporate cash office audit. So that is where my ...

I needed to be able to staple thick piles of paper without spending a fortune.  This stapler fits the bill!The stapler is supposed to be able to staple up to 60 sheets of paper.  It can indeed do this, very easily.  However, if the papers are loosely stacked (maybe a pile of mixed-weight papers that had been handled and folded and then re-stacked multiple times) you will find tha...

In this day of preprogrammed phones and caller ID, I can't remember phone numbers to save my life. I needed help and wanted something more than the traditional phone book. On Disney shopping.com, I found the perfect solution to my problem and that was the Mickey Mouse Hands rotary card file.The Mickey rotary card file is shaped like the traditional old fashioned round Rolodex. It&...

Paper puncher is very useful to me when it comes in filing my daughter's school materials. I had an old puncher but the metal hole maker got rusted and it is now busted and useless. I decided to buy a new one yesterday and I found this heavy duty Frosted Two Hole Punch by HT Manok Mark. I like the overall outlook and touch of this puncher. The handle is tough enough to punch hard and bunch ...

I have a desktop calendar in my office at work. Even though I have a couple of different wall calendars there as well, my desktop calendar is my favorite. It has a different picture of Thomas Kinkade's art every day of the year. I always look forward to changing the page. (At work, even the smallest little treats can help make your day a little better.)Besides the beautiful art by "The...

I'm an ebay seller and am very particular on my packaging.  Someone once told me "Good packaging isn't cheap, but cheap packaging isn't good either".  I use only Scotch 3M packing tape.  I've tried them all and this is the very best, not the cheapest, but in the long run I use much less than the other brands.  I usually buy the six pack from Sam'...

I was stressed out making my hubby’s stuffs in order, especially with name cards. He’s been receiving a lot of name cards from his company’s suppliers. Every time a supplier pays a visit to his company, he would be given their name cards. Eventually these name cards are piled up, and I can’t stand having these messes. One day I was shopping for papers in a stationery sto...

My husband is the fussiest person I know when it comes to keeping the computer and television screens spotlessly clean. That’s okay, though, because everything looks a lot better when viewed without smudges. But, as you know, you have to be careful about how you clean your T.V. and computer monitor screens. It is very easy to scratch them and thus leave your screen permanently damaged....

When it comes to unique stuffs, I can’t resist myself not to buy it. This bookmark is one of the unique stuffs I adore. I bought this bookmark from Narwastu, a store that sells religious stuffs. I think Narwastu made this bookmark. The bookmark is laminated, and the lamination is perforated at the top, in order to be inserted with a nylon string. The nylon string is of the similar color a...

Last year when we were back to school shopping 1 dozen already sharpened pencils were on my son's list. We had one of those small hand held pencil sharpeners at home but I thought since we needed so many done and I have always wanted one for craft projects anyway, I would just go and buy a battery operated one.I bought the X-Acto battery operated pencil sharpener at Target. X...

In our home office burnable cd's and the other mass collection of software cd's we have come with a problem - usually that problem is how to store them conveniently and without all the excess room required to stack all those cases.While shopping one day I came across the Atlantic 60 cd pod container.  This storage container makes it so simple to store all those software cd's we...

I have used the Liquid Paper products for as long as I can remember.  I used to buy the little bottles with the brush, but they always seemed to get dried up and the brush would be coated with dried up paint until it became almost unuseable before long.When they came out with the liquid paper pens, I was hooked.  They are so easy to use and are much more accurate in placing the liquid...

My husband and I have a Brother Cool Laminator in our home office.  We've had it for years, and it's still doing great.  I did a review on the laminator and now I would like to do a review on the laminate refill.The refill we get for our laminator is for use with models LX-900 and LX-910D.  It is a 9 inch wide roll and is also double sided, so both sides of the document y...

This is my favorite stapler, I have been using it for several years. First off, it is ergonomically designed: unlike my other (rarely used) all-angles stapler, this one is curved, made to fit nicely in the hand. I can use it for a long time and not end up with my hand aching. It does not require a lot of physical strength to staple through, either, unless you are stapling over 10 sheets of pape...

We have this large "L" shaped office desk.  The desk is really perfect for your computer and all you need to go with it.  However, it had no place to put the keyboard except on the desktop.  Thanks to United Stationers and their Standard Underdesk Keyboard Drawer, we could take the keyboard off the desktop.We found this drawer while looking at Best Buy for another desk ...
