It's freeing I love to read, but only have a small bookshelf. There are really only a handful of old favorites I read over and over. The rest are fun to pass on.

Recycling is everywhere - whether you're giving clothes to family and friends or saving Cool Whip containers to send home leftovers. Being creative helps us to save $, too... not a bad deal.

Who needs to get all fancy? :) Maybe there's a market for manly shopping bags. Or maybe some marketing could be done where cute women are ogling this guy in the grocery store while he's shopping with his big brown market bag. Then, the women get distracted by another guy who's carrying two, then by a guy who's carrying a whole armload. "Green is hot."

This is from Snoop Dogg. I trust him. 1/2 Price's "cafe" is a table with a pot of regular coffee and a pot of decaf. Superb. I love these suggestions. I've stopped using a bag in my smaller trash cans and taking cloth bags to any store where I know I can use them. I get odd looks, but, hey, I'm strange anyway. May as well hurry up the stares.

I want to go check it out :) And I think that grandmas are an inspiration to many recyclers - mine used to save the craziest things. But that could take an entire post. :) I heard about 1/2 price books! I want to go check it out :)

I think it's because she grew up during the depression and learned early on to save and reuse everything. Instead of having building blocks to play with when I visited as a child, I got to play with a bucket containing empty thread spools, old egg cartons, and various other odds and ends. I also don't think she has ever purchased tuperware. She has a collection of containers from cottage cheese, sour cream, and yogurt that are arranged by shape and size. I should ask her for other types in this category. I'm sure she has a lot more I don't know. My grandpa used old baby food jars attached to the shelf of his workbench to hold various sizes of screws, nuts, nails, etc. Again, my grandma is my inspiration in this category.

The paper that you make will probably be best for things like unique cards or art projects, maybe like a collage, where you can finally pull out all those old photos that you never look at and incorporate those, too.
