I did not know about the 1 use cards. I make an effort to not buy online when I can. If I have to, I try to use paypal. I do not keep a direct link to the paypal open as they offer, but make a connection to transfer money to the account and then delete it once completed. I do have my mail coming to my house, I have been thinking about getting one of the mailboxes that drops the mail into a secure compartment below. The post office in my little town does not have the post office boxes in an area that is accessible when they are closed. I leave in the morning before they are open and get home after they close. Everything else on your list I do. My SS card and all my credit cards (including store cards) are kept in my Fire Safe. I only carry a credit card when I need it.
