What kind of places sell shredders.Im after buying one for my parents for xmas so they can destroy all there receipts.
We got one from a local hardware store called 'Coopers'...but I should imagine they're also in Staples, or Tescos...or on ebay if you've got paypal or can send off a cheque.
But for hard cash...Staples may be your best bet. Dunno what their prices would be like though.... :-?

They are really fun by the way. Once you start you just can't stop! But you must. At least my one needs a rest after some minutes (10?15?30?) otherwise it will melt down, which is actually another way to get rid of paper, put it on the shredder and make it melt down, "fusing" the plastic, the metal and the paper together. But then you can only do that once.
Really, I'm not kidding on the "can't stop" part. Be warned. Next time you visit your parents you might find out all your childhood photos are missing, your birth-certificate no longer exists together with any other old document of yours. In the end, you'll become a ghost.

Have a fireplace installed at their house. Keep them warm as the receipsts go up in smoke. It will also bring up the value of the house.
