    Default Two More Organizational Facts

    I think these are good because they have to do, not just with organization, but with money as well.

    'Crisis' purchases related to disorganization could cost as much as 15 to 20 percent of your annual budget - buying duplicates of misplaced or broken items, last-minute shopping at premium prices, and unnecessary interest, rush, and finance charges on late payments.

    Realtors regard 'first impression' improvements such as decluttering closets to be one of the smartest ways to speed the sale of a home and fetch a better price, according to the New York State Association of Realtors.
