Thanks Debbie! This is great!!!:) :D I appreciate you sharing!;)
 
Thanks! I have some old catalogs that I have put a sticker on and this gives me some good idea of where to leave them. I never thought about ATMs!
 
Remember on some of these places (like ATM's) just to put your phone # on that label! There are some freaks out there and I would not let my address out like that!:)
 
I never put my home address on any of my labels! I figure no one needs that information. The only way they'll get it is if they need to mail me something or I mail them something!! It's just safer that way.
 
Wow. Thats alot of places. I need that catchy sticker now.
