From food waste to packaging to disposable items, there are a lot of resources being used by humans. If you find yourself throwing out a lot of food, you can remedy the problem by shopping with a list. Preserve Some of Your Food. Another way to prevent waste is to preserve some of your food. Nor is it healthy.

We do put up decorations (ones I buy at garage sales or thrift stores and reuse each year). Tip # 2 Recycle/reuse costumes. Bring in your slightly used, but in good shape costume and pick one from those others brought in – as a swap. Re-purpose the used costume. Tip # 3 Use up your pumpkins.

Try replacing some paper products on your list with cloth and re-usable products that you probably have around the house and you will not only reduce your grocery spending, but you will also reduce your waste. I use flannel hankies during sniffle season. I have been using a Silpat Nonstick Silicone Baking Mat for years.

We have accumulated a lot of stuff – lose screws, highly prized collectibles, everyday essentials, clothes that ‘might fit again someday’, tools, children’s artwork, food stuffs and more. So, store your paint together with your paint brushes, paint thinner, paint stir stickes, rollers and etc to find them easier later.
