Garbage Bags

Tuesday, September 12, 2006

I hate spending money for garbage bags!!!! I know they are just going to waste.  I save the all the bags from different stores and use them right in my wastebaskets.  Much cheaper than small kitchen bags.  I can't wait until Christmas time so I can start saving and using the large Walmart bags. 

Lately I have been using a plastic bag in small wastebasket lined with a grocery store bag and then when that is full I fill my bigger garbage can with that, then I throw them all away at once on garbage days.  It saves me a little money every month.

I have mention this several times on here before About taking the air out of your trash by crushing and taring up everything you throw away. Doing this has another plus side besides saving trash bags
Look at the benefits in exercise you get, using your hands and arms tearing up paper and cardboard into little pieces ,and crushing the cans and bottles you don't reuse or recycle. Yoou are guarenteed to save trash bags and cut your trash bill.
Give It A Try
