ID ink roller

I'm disappointed in the new large and small ink roller set. I thought I was getting a large ink width. Both rollers are the same original width, not larger. I feel duped.

I don't buy them. I hold paperwork that might reveal my identity under running watre until it is throroughly wet. Then I tear it,wad it up, and throw it away. Makes it impossible to piece together.

We have a small crosscut shredder. I just shred it all.

I love the idea of those rollers, ordered them in the past and did not like them at all! I could read everything through it! Not sure how or why it works for other people, but I couldn't make it be a good idea for me. I think the shredders are great. and I also use the water idea or mix those papers with the wetter garbage (cat food, etc.)

My shredder and a simple black Sharpie works for me!

Our community library used to have shredding days. Large shredding company came, you watched your items being shredded in a large truck. Usually a limit of a few boxes. Didn’t see it since Covid. It used to be free. Not sure, but I think these companies will come to your home for a fee.

@Infinite Mom 47We have 3 security measures:

1. We have a good quality "small office" shredder (Fellowes) that we use for our shreddable items.

2. We use a largest size black marker on medicine bottles and other items that can't be shredded.

3. Once a year we have a dump of the previous year's bank statements, Rx invoices, etc; too much for our home shredder. We make an appointment to meet a commercial shredding company when it's working at a bank or hospital, etc. in our area. We bring them a box of stuff, they charge us $25 for the box and we're done with it.

Shred.

I know I'll get kicked for this but don't waste water soaking your paper please.

That was my experience, too. Just had to hold paper up to the light and turn it in different directions. Bingo, I could read what was under the roller ink. Waste of money! I shred papers and peel the name/address labels off of boxes before putting them out for recycling.
