Ditch Your Stamps and Save

Keep your cash in your wallet by going Paperless.

If you’re still receiving and paying bills the old fashioned way – writing checks, stuffing envelopes, buying stamps and mailing – you’re not only losing precious time, you’re spending money that you could use to buy something you really want. Stamp prices recently went up, making your bill payments even more expensive.

With just the stamp money you save each year by going paper less, you could:

• Buy dinner for two at your favorite restaurant
• Visit your favorite amusement park
• Treat several friends to a night at the movies
• Attend a concert

In addition to keeping more cash in your wallet, receiving and paying bills online can save you time. Imagine conveniently paying all of your bills electronically in just minutes rather than the hours most Americans spend writing and filing checks to pay bills.

Going paperless also helps keep the environment green.

Go beyond recycling to save trees and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. If you’re looking for more ways to conserve the environment, receiving and paying your bills online can really make a difference. For each household that goes paper less, it could:

• Reduce solid waste in landfills by an estimated
  14 pounds per year
• Decrease carbon dioxide emissions by an estimated
  37 pounds per year

If every American household went paper less, it could reduce solid waste in U.S. landfills by more than 800,000 tons a year; help curb the release of greenhouse gases (CO2) by 2.1 million tons a year; and could save an estimated 18.5 million trees a year!*
