I lose things. That's no secret. I lost my prescription sunglasses for about 2 weeks until my husband found them wedged between the seat and the door of the truck. I also lose scissors, which is why I went to the dollar store and now have a pair in every room. Now, I use them and then generally put them right back instead of carrying them into another room and then leaving them there and forgetting when I last used them and put them there. The same thing goes with staplers.
I guess like any normal person I had 1 stapler. That seemed like an appropriate number to have, right? Until this soap thing happened at which time staplers became like scissors, necessary for use in almost every room of the house. I did find a perfect (and cheap) solution to my stapler problem. Staples "mini magenetic stapler"! Its a mini stapler (cause I am not doing heavy duty stapling) and the bottom is magnetic so I can stick it on the cabinet and always know where it it! I have one in the office, one in the former living room which is now the soap storage room, one in the kitchen, and one at the york market.
The funny thing about my staplers is that apparently they go bad or get used up according to staples reorder reminders. I get a notice about every 4 weeks letting me know that "It's time to reorder your mini magnetic stapler!". Whew! So, glad you told me, or else I'd have been caught with my pants down stapler-wise! Yes, Yes, it is a nice reminder idea for things like pens and paper, I guess one of the computer lackeys was asleep the day they were adding items to the email reminder list.
