I wanted to send a few recent photos of our family to my mom. I like to print them out from my computer several arranged on a page with comments. I was about buy a 1/2 inch three ring binder and plastic sheet protectors (it seemed like a bit much and was kind of heavy to send off first class) then I saw this presentation binder. It was convenient and easy. Just the thing. Glad Staples had them and glad I found them.
