This may sound like a very daunting post, but I can promise you that it\u2019s not. So stay, take a seat, and get\u00a0your cursor off that Back button!<\/p>\n

I came across this amazing website one morning when I sat down for breakfast (this is rare…I don’t have time to sit in the mornings). I didn\u2019t have to babysit and gave myself some extra time, so I watched Today. A segment came on with a professional organizer, and obviously that was right up my alley, so I paid close attention. She went through some basic organization tips, but then she got to emails. Like you probably are right now, I was intimidated. I\u2019m email crazy and, ask any<\/i> of my friends, I hate<\/i> emails with a bu<\/span>rn<\/span>in<\/span>g p<\/span>as<\/span>si<\/span>on<\/span><\/span><\/strong>, but I’m not one of those crazies that has thousands of unopened emails. The second I get an email, I need<\/em> to get rid of the notification. Emails are\u00a0nonstop and probably drain the majority of my phone battery. I have 3 email accounts connected to my phone: my planner email, my school email, and my personal\/ambulance email. By the end of the day, I get upwards of 50 emails. To me, that\u2019s a whole lot of emails, but I keep my notifications on incase anything important comes through, which is rare.<\/p>\n

So back to this segment. The woman introduced a\u00a0website called unroll.me<\/a><\/strong>. It consolidates all your subscription emails in 1 email that gets delivered at a convenient time for you (morning, afternoon, or evening). FOR FREE!!<\/strong><\/span> 90% of my emails are\u00a0subscriptions, so this is saving me a lot of frustration.<\/p>\n
