Ever thought in investing in a pair of craft scissors? I did a few years ago and now I use them to cut gift tags out of old Christmas cards. The leftovers go into the cardboard recycling.

The used stamps are more of a problem, as it costs more than they are worth to post them to the few charities that still take them. The Irish Peatland Council still take stamps. http://www.ipcc.ie/howtohelp.html

thanks JD. I'll pop the stamps in the post to Peat people... but no chance of me getting craft i'm afraid.
