Why does shredded paper feel lighter to carry than the same amount of paper that is not shredded?

Shredding does not change the weight of a piece of paper, and I suspect that the sensation of it is a sensory illusion. Over time and with experience, our minds tend to learn to approximate weights of things based on vision, and since shredded paper takes up much more space than unshredded, we thus "expect" it to weigh more, although its weight has not changed because of the shredding.
