My girlfriend deciding she thought getting the mail everyday was something exciting has oddly been one of the more positive changes in life recently. To come home and just have one piece of mail that is actually necessary sitting where I put my work backpack and not have to even see all the other junk is a much better experience.

I try hard to reduce my trash and recyclables, and it always depressed me to throw >90% of my "mail" right into the recycle box.
