| I don't buy books, cd, dvds, etc. I extensively use the library. I'll only buy 0.99 greeting cards, and recycle gift bags. Use a Nalgene bottle instead of bottled water, most of the time. Plan all my errands together to save gas; plan my classes and work schedule together so I only drive to school once. Re-use plastic baggies if they are still clean, and use grocery bags for the trash. I like used clothes from Buffalo Exchange, and donate to Goodwill. I really don't buy anything on the store that isn't generic brand or on sale, since I have expensive tastes in food to begin with. (organic, etc)
The only thing we do bad on at my house is energy, as there is always at least 1 TV on, a few computers, and lights in every room. But, the A/C or heater doesn't get turned on unless it's unbearable. |
