Getting ready for green baby
- Got a minute?
- Stick to just the essentials. The REAL essentials, not everything on a list of things you should buy. This will save you money and help cut down on the garbage from packaging and potential for items that would end up in the trash.
- Got a morning?
- Shop at garage sales and online listings and auction sites. They can be a great tool to save a substantial amount of money. Not only that, but by buying used, you not only save that item from ending up as garbage, but you also keep yourself from creating NEW garbage in the future if you had bought one new.
- Got a month?
- Once your items have outlived their usefulness, sell it. This again will keep from creating garbage on the part of yourself and the buyer.
