After the OW is competed, I can forget it and be done. It checks one thing off my list. Having a half done task waiting drives me up the wall. It's one of those little things.

I said it was dumb.

Not dumb - I do the exact same thing (though, with a folder instead of an envelope). And, I found myself printing my recent R/T bookings (using the 20% coupon code) twice so that the order and the system can remain in place!
