I still save them though. :)Belindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17486895127003368291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-225169024525576477.post-18867144797527791032015-11-29T01:43:27.170-05:002015-11-29T01:43:27.170-05:00I save Coke caps for mycokerewards.

I know Carol saves the bags her bread (like buns) comes in, in a reused tissue box and then will reuse them for a sandwich or something similar. <br /><br />Hope you have a great weekend too!Belindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17486895127003368291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-225169024525576477.post-65776003030439040922012-08-17T20:19:31.102-04:002012-08-17T20:19:31.102-04:00Hi again,

She pours skim milk into a jar that can seal tight (like a used peanut butter jar), shakes vigorously for 30 seconds, then heats in the microwave to add to coffee, for a frothy latte.<br /><br />Something a lot of folks don't think about, but when you buy that jar of peanut butter, you are paying for the jar, too. Just like I wouldn't throw out a couple of spoonfuls of the peanut butter, I'm not going to throw out the jar, until I'm sure I've gotten at least some use out of them. I'm the same way with plastic bags inside of boxed foods. I paid for that bag, too. So I use it again, to package brown bag lunch items in. Then it gets tossed.<br /><br />Have a great weekend!Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-225169024525576477.post-65001500569090921482012-08-17T16:36:27.992-04:002012-08-17T16:36:27.992-04:00Sounds like you put them to very good use, Lili! :...Sounds like you put them to very good use, Lili! :) I like the soap scrap idea because I don't like to use my regular dishes for this because they end up tasting like soap.

Sourdough starter in the fridge, playdough for the kidlets I babysit each week, freezer storage for leftovers, vegetable seed storage to keep leftover seeds till next years garden, putting soap scraps into with water, for making liquid soap, storing nails and screws in the garage. <br /><br />Great reminder to get as mush use out of things we bring into our homes!Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.com
