Assuming you’re clean after a bath or shower (let’s hope) then there’s no good reason not to hang that towel up, let it dry, and use it again. At my house we go about a week, sometimes more, with the same three towels – one for Cedar and two for me (my hair is long I gotta wrap it). This small step saves time, energy, detergent, and water.

If you have a good argument against this practice go ahead and let me know why. I’m interested.

Try to pick one or two main stores that have decent prices and always shop there. Preferably choose at least one store that carries both grocery and home items, and make sure they’re as close to your house as possible. I actually shop at two stores. One that carries groceries and home items plus some organic items, and another that carries all the organic and natural items that the first store doesn’t.

The first store I shop at carries food, home, office, electronics and more. Sometimes a few things are more expensive, I’d likely save a little if I shopped around, but I’d also waste gas and time. To me, saving fifty cents here and there isn’t worth it.

Well, that was actually two small steps. Shop at fewer stores and quit chasing sales. You’ll save resources, money, and time.

Where do you shop?
