Re: Reduce, Reuse And Recycle Your Clutter

Don't forget our VETERANS. I belong to DAR. We collect "comfort items" for area veterans. Toiletries, etc. Save the little samples of things in hotel/motels when traveling. New or lightly used winter coats, gloves, socks, knit hats, etc. Contact a Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) chapter in you area. Or take the items to a VA hospital, VA outpatient clinic or contact a veteran's service officer. Don't forget we have female vets, too! ??

Re: Reduce, Reuse And Recycle Your Clutter

I will fully admit I keep favors from parties and include them as regifts during the holidays and birthdays etc...for example, I received a trio of teas in a mug at a summer bridal shower..I then regifted the teas along with a new mug and a Starbucks card during Christmas...same went for body lotions from BBW and luxury nail polishes I received at a baby shower...I try not to throw out and usually have a yard sale once a year. I reuse gift bags too and am a stickler for recycling. Every little bit helps!
