W: Good morning, John, nice to be here!
M: You know, well, a lot of us spend time looking for things in the morning? It’s the glasses, it’s the keys, and in my case it’s always, always the other shoe.
W: Yeah, the other shoe, yeah! I’ve been there.
M: What are the biggest mistakes we made when it comes to that?
W: And to speak to what you’re saying, I think it’s being organized. When you’re disorganized, you don’t know where things are. You’re rifling from drawers, rifling through closets, trying to find the thing that didn’t go back where it belongs. So if you can stay organized, you can really save some time.
M: All right. Let’s start saving time right this minute. OK?
W: Okay.
M: No.1, your No.1 tip here is banking online. Now some people are afraid to do it, but you say it’s something smart.
W: Yeah, yeah, it is very safe. And we certainly recommend that you use your own bank’s website. So go to the bank, talk to the consumer service representatives there. If you have some questions about how to do it, how safe it is, it’s the best way to find out how safe it is and how easy...
M: And how much time do you think you saved, Carolyn, by doing that?
W: You know if you can, write, write in a lot of checks, if you’re making transfers, checking your statements, you can save 30 minutes, up, even up to an hour.
M: I’ve seen a lot of this number, the second tip, which is online grocers. Now, that’s really not for everyone, but you actually go grocery shopping online.
W: That’s exactly what you do. And you know, if you are the type of Person that wants to read every lable and look at every piece of fruit, it’s probably not for you. But, you know, if you wanna give up a little control, you can definitely save some time. M: And what’s the good strategy if you decide to go shopping online?
W: What I would suggest is especially starting out, is to do the staples online. The brands that you use all the time, the paper products, the cleaning products, the cereals, get that online and then go to the store for the meats in the produce.
M: Now for those who are big library people who tike the library, you say make a preemptive strike basically and go online first before you actually make the trip out to the library.
W: That’s exactly right. Check the library’s website. You can reserve books rather than make a trip and find out they don’t have the book that you want. You can put it in order and they will call you and let you know when it’s in and then you go get it.
M: Ah, the fourth tip, I like it a lot because I travel a lot. It is to print your boarding pass before you go to the airport. That is so smart, right?
W: It’s really amazing, especially when you don’t have to check luggage. Because if you have to check luggage it’s gonna take you a little time. But if you’re just carrying on, you skip those chaos and go right to the gate.
M: That’s brilliant. Now for those of us who are always sort of looking for the same phone number, I know I’m like this. I leaf through the phone book, I find the phone number, I call it, I shut the phone book and then the next week I’m gonna use that same number. What’s the good way to sort or keep track of things?
W: Highlight it, you know, just do it in a bright color, so it jumps out to you if it’s something that you use often and organize your phone book. That’s really important. No more napkins and envelope flaps and old Christmas cards and phone numbers. Do it nicely and you will find things quicker.
M: Okay, my big Achilles’ heel for me is my purse. It is the bottomless horrible pit. I don’t even know what’s in there. But you, show me the best way.
W: You’ve got a little example here for you. And the first thing to do is to keep a pen in every purse. And a couple of pens can avoid running out of ink. When you are waiting in line for a doctor’s appointment, you could write out notes quickly, okay? Keep an easy-to-find credit card, either credit card or ATM card. What you can do is to keep them there organized. Go through them once in a while.
M: All right and you say, just lastly, it’s a good idea to stash scissors in every single room so if you are wrapping presents, doing things.
W: Right, you’ll always have a thread you have to clip, a tag you have to take off, a little brush, er, and you know, right at the front door before you go out, make it look great. So...
M: You are so smart. I feel like we have saved time today, Carolyn Forte, thank you so much. We really appreciate your time.
W: Thank you!
