Shipping Holiday Packages Beyond Your Frontier

Tue, 18 Nov 2008 16:07:39 CST

Don't fall off the sleigh this year - get packaging materials for your workshop from Next Day!

The Holiday Season is again drawing near,
Make sure to stock packaging to be delivered by reindeer.
With millions of gift-givers sending holiday cheer,
It’s no wonder why tape dispensers seem to disappear.
After all, the Holiday Season is the busiest time of year.
Soon it’ll be 2010 and the season you hold so dear
Will melt away with the snow - it’ll be time for swimwear.

A Blog by Julie Frank: Warm Up on Cold Winter Mornings

Thu, 13 Nov 2008 15:12:56 CST

It’s 7:15 a.m. as I walk into my office on a cold, winter morning. Where is the first place I go after taking off my coat and turning on my computer? I head straight to the kitchen to fill up my coffee mug, of course. I wouldn’t dream of starting my morning without it!

Is your office big enough that you need a pot of coffee brewing with several more pots ready on the warmers? With 10 or more coffee drinkers that’s sure to be a necessity. Consider this three burner BUNN-Pour-O-Matic model. It can brew up to 100 cups of coffee per hour. Now that will keep your employees warm and productive on those cold winter mornings! This model comes with a plastic water pitcher and filters, but don’t forget to purchase the 12-cup Carafes that are sold separately. We also carry a wide variety of pre-measured coffee packs, creamer canisters and sugar packets to complete your order.

What Does Kindness Mean to You?

Tue, 11 Nov 2008 09:29:21 CST

Spread the word to the world - November 13th is World Kindness Day! How amazing would it be if every person in the world was nothing but kind to each other? It could be possible (says the eternal optimist). Just think, if you influence 5 people with your kindness, and then each of those 5 people pass their kind attitude on to another 5 people, and so on and so forth, you may be able to help radiate kindness throughout the world!

If you’d be so kind as to let me inquire: What does kindness mean to you?
Is it sending someone an inspirational quote or letter? Maybe it’s helping someone carry a heavy load or saying hello to a total stranger? Or maybe it’s giving a gift to loved ones or to those less fortunate? Whatever kindness means to you, don’t forget it on Nov. 13th.

If you have a story you’d like to share that relates to the topic of kindness, please send it to me at Amanda.Goedken@NextDayOfficeSupplies.com. I’ll post all the stories I receive to the blog on Nov. 13th for other readers to see!

I Love Magazines

Thu, 30 Oct 2008 15:59:49 CDT

I love magazines – everything about them - from the masthead displaying the names of writers and designers to the full-bleed ads occupying every other page. My favorite places are those that have high stacks and full racks of magazines. So you can probably guess what my pet peeve is then…? When waiting areas don’t have magazine racks filled with magazines, of course! I realize that magazines left for “public use” can be a bit of a “germ magnet” (just thinking about all those strangers who touched them make me cringe), but I look forward to waiting rooms because of magazines.

Due to my adoration for glossy pages, today’s Next Day Favorite item is the multi-tiered literature holder for magazines. I think every waiting area should have one filled with bright magazine covers!

3-in-1 Cash-Change-Storage Security Box

Fri, 24 Oct 2008 15:06:53 CDT

Many of us have lost money at some point. And some of us have had it stolen. I used to hide money in innocuous places to be found at a later time only to be found and stolen by my brothers. But then I guess it was exactly stealing if you consider the age-old adage “finder’s keepers.”

If you keep money around your house or business, maybe for a garage sale, petty cash, or poker night, you might consider the PM Company 3-in-1 Cash-Change-Storage Security box. The box is two-tiered with a self-counting pocket change tray on the upper tier and a four-section cash tray on the lower tier. This item also features hidden receipt and document storage compartments. Check it on Next Day!

Bankers Boxes for End of Year Organization

Wed, 22 Oct 2008 16:44:46 CDT

The end of 2008 is fast approaching. I realized this last week when a radio station in St. Louis announced they would be playing nothing but holiday music from now through the end of December. Although I don’t consider it to be “The Holiday Season” quite yet, I do consider preparation for the end of the year to be a smart decision. Be sure to get your bankers boxes before the hustle and bustle of end-of-year chaos. Next Day carries a wide variety of boxes to keep documents filed and organized.

Don't Forget Sweetest Day is October 18th

Wed, 15 Oct 2008 14:32:57 CDT

Don’t forget Sweetest Day this year! It’s this Saturday, October 18th. Sweetest Day is a day to brighten up your special someone’s day with loads of love. You could write them a letter, leave candy, chocolates and flowers for them to find, or buy them unique items from Next Day. Who knows, maybe a label maker, flower-shaped Post-it notes, or a calligraphy set will make their day.

Oh and I almost forgot – don’t forget the kids – sweetest day applies to them too!
