Identity theft is one of the biggest problems facing everyone these days. I've had a paper shredder for years until about a year ago when the one I had finally died. Although it should have been higher on my list of things to get I just let my papers kind of stack up until yesterday. I had been researching different shredders and I wanted to find one that works both on several pages at once and would do credit cards as well as CD's if I need to destroy them as well at a good price. I checked several stores and hadn't decided on one yet until I saw this one at Target.
On the box if you look closely shows you that the papers are shredded to very small pieces. That sold me on this shredder. I brought it home and started eliminating my papers that I didn't want to just through into the trash. As I was going through my stacks of envelopes and I found one from Sears, which had an old credit card in it. So I decided to she just how good this shredder works. I have a before and after picture of the card.

I just love this shredder, I don't think I will have any trouble with anyone getting any information from what I shred. This machine makes keeping my identity safe, and fun!
