Binders, Dividers and Folders, oh my!

I had to go to Staples this morning to get numbered dividers and a transparent cover for a grant proposal.  Little did I know this would be such a difficult chore.  Staples literally has aisles upon aisles of different types of binders, dividers, cover sheets, folders, etc...  I was so lost that I must've looked like I was on the moon.  How can there be so many varieties on something so basic?  Chalk it up to corporate America to create a huge industry that is completely unnecessary.  

In the end, I settled on Staples "Report Covers (cubiertas de informe)" which features "100 sheet capacity, two fasteners and compressor strip, and customizable spine label."  And Staples "1-25 Legal Exhibit Dividers" which features "preprinted 1-25 tabs, unpunched to use with all binding systems."
