I have quite a number of folders for gift suggestions, such as one for me, for my parents, etc. Also a folder for things to do nearby, recipes, shopping. When I’m planning a trip, I’ll make a bookmark folder for places, hotels, etc. I also have a folder for all things related to COVID, including daily numbers and masks.
