I thought I might start a little series over here… every once in a while I come across a techy idea that’s so helpful/brilliant/on target that it’s a must share.
I struggle tremendously with my email inbox. I kid you not, at the start of my ‘manage this mess’ journey, I had 2,367 unread messages. And that’s not in my ‘grey mail’ box (or email account for more spammy messages), that was in my personal email account. Seven years of not properly managing your inbox will lead to messes like that! I’ll share in the future ways to combat this (if you might find that useful?) but today I wanted to share ONE tip that has made my inbox life worlds easier.
Unroll.Me
I totally dig this tool. Unroll.Me allows you to walk through your inbox and ‘roll up’ any subscriptions (newsletters, daily deal sites, promotional messages) into one convenient little email. That daily email makes flipping through all of those messages that you might enjoy (but seriously tire of) quickly and efficiently, and it cleans your inbox right up.
Bonus: Unroll.Me finds all of your subscriptions – even ones you had no idea you were signed up for! You can unsubscribe as you go, too.
Clever video on how it works:
So now I receive one email a day containing ALL of my rolled up email messages.
Easy, right?
PS This is not a sponsored post, just a tool I find totally fascinating and helpful!
Thank you so much for the heads-up on this. I signed up for it yesterday, and it’s genius! I ended up having 115 subscriptions, most of which I wanted to keep because I actually like keeping up with sales and whatnot. One email is a heck of a lot easier to manage, though.
Awesome to hear your feedback! I love it now – it’s amazing how many subscriptions we opt into without even realizing it :).
Ugh, I’m so bad with email…though there are only 1,129 unread emails in my inbox right now. You definitely had me beat! Love the idea of the tech tips section. Any time saver is wonderful in my book!
I used unroll.me at the beginning of the year and it’s absolutely wonderful! There were so many subscriptions that I didn’t even realize I had and it got rid of all of them. Amazing!

I am SO excited to do this – I had no idea something like this was even available! Thank you for sharing!
