    I got a shredder at Walmart for $20+ (looks like $39 now). I got not the cheapest – mine does 8 sheets and credit cards. It does diamond or cross cut, which is better than strips. When I had a lot, I used a fire – breakup the ashes afterwards.

    Why would anyone destroy a birth certificate? You need that to get a passport, among other things.
