Something Every Household Should Have

Being the prepared individual, I am constantly thinking. My husband recently told me of someone who has all of their important documents in order, kept in the safe, and ready to evacuate with him in the event of an emergency.

This set my head to spinning. What if there was a fire or a flood or a tornado and I had to head for cover or leave my home? What if my home were destroyed? Would I be able to lay my hands on my insurance policy numbers? A Copy of my own personal identification? Contact Information for people I need? No.

At Target last weekend, I came across a product that I think would be beneficial in every household and could be a lifesaver for anyone, regardless of age. It's called a Life Doc Binder. It comes with computer software (which you can use or you may fill everything out by hand) and it allows you to keep all of your important information in one place. Then if anything ever happens to you, your family will know exactly where to find the information they need. If you ever need to leave your home, you can grab the binder and take it with you.

I think this is an excellent idea and I think everyone should know about them. Check the office supply area at Target. You can also look inside the binder, read details, and purchase online at http://www.getbuttonedup.com/shop/life_doc.php?pid=%22shop%22

And what an excellent gift for couples just starting out, new homeowners, the parents of a new child, or even your family members and yourself.
