With so many stores selling reusable shopping bags, I buy these bags to use as gift bags.
They're about the same price and are actually another gift that cuts down on those plastic bags.

Decorate strong cardboard boxes for storage. They normally come free with new household bits
and they can look really pretty. It's better than buying the plastic ones, and since they so
often smash and end up at the tip... When your cardboard one dies it can then be recycled.
Have some ideas on living green? Let us know!

FreeMesa Tip: Helping Charities
Many charities and non-profits are constantly running short of basic items - animal shelters
always need towels, for example - stuff that many of us have in excess and could easily give away for free.
Rather than having non-profits re-request the same items every
week, we have a Wish List feature on FreeMesa.org where you can find charities in your local
neighborhood and see if they need anything you have just lying around the house that is currently
propping up a couch or buried in a closet.
Check it out here:

Monkey Business:
Let Sleeping Dogs Lie...(video)
Thats all for now! I'll see you next week!
Cheers!
