The Frugal Girl

SEPTEMBER 19, 2023

I’ve been faithfully packing my lunches My building at the college has an in-house Chick Fil A, and in my two years of attending classes there, I’ve managed to not buy food there at all. Inside my package: an eye mask to use for my dry eye issues. I’m glad to have healthier ends again.

When you can reuse or re-purpose an item, you are not only saving it from the landfills, but you are also saving the expense and energy which would have been expended when you recycle. I cut a heavy blue plastic trash bag into triangles, stapled them over a rope and hung the rope across the driveway to block those drivers from using it.

If you are looking for a can of spray paint you used last summer, you are more likely to look somewhere that you have other cans of paint stored. Store things where you use them. Unless you have a very small house, you can save yourself time and effort by storing stuff where you use it.
