My cleaning company throws out partial tp rolls. After moving out of my apartment into my car, I started saving them to reroll for myself. The one I rerolled is the upper left. Not the most perfect, but I’d rather do this than see so much go to waste. And I am saving money where I can :)

Hi guys,
I work in a theatre’s costume shop and we’ve been in the process of cleaning out our garment storage for 3+ years (we have SO much stuff…). One of the sections we’re looking to significantly downsize is our fur collection. We have probably 100+ genuine fur garments (coats, shawls, hats, scarves, etc.) and we’ll probably keep only a few. I’ve tried to look into it before about animal rescues I can donate them to but I haven’t had a ton of success where I’m located in the Midwest. Any other suggestions?

I want to reduce my food waste, but i dont find easy and actually sticking way, of how to track, what I have at home, while not being at home.

I always go to store, after my work, since i have quite a road from home to the store, and driving home is always on the way, so I save on time and fuel. But then, I get the idea, of what I want to cook, and then I roughly know what products I have, but not for sure, so there are multiple times, when I buy stuff, that I already had, and instead of using it, I now have 2 items of same product, and most of the time I dont use it all, and it goes to waste :/ And its just, couse I didnt know if I really had it, and if i had it, would it be enough, and thus bought to be sure.

I bet I am not the only one, so how do you guys solve this?

I can save you time, I wont be using any google sheets, or boards on the fridge, or apps, that I need to enter all products manually. I know myself, and I can use it for some time, but if it wont be easy, i will ditch it. I know also, there are apps, that scan receipts, but I dont always have store bought items, I do get a lot of stuff from my grandparents, like fresh eggs, or groceries, or even meat, so its not an option too.

Also, expirations, same issue, I dont know, when is stuff expiring, and I keep throwing that away.

I bet someone has great, and easy to stick solution to this.

Thansk!

i’ve always been a sucker for socks, i always get gifted them and i have a huge collection now. i simply don’t have the room and it’s becoming overwhelming. what’s the best way i can remove the quality ones? some haven’t even been worn so i’d like for them to be put to use.
i have a few pairs that are way past their prime which i am going to take to a textile bank unless there is a better alternative.
im based in the uk.

I would really prefer to keep my hair long

Hi, I'm trying to switch from Dip shampoo and conditioner bars because I want to save some money. Has anyone tried the ZWS ones? I'm looking at the scent called "Earth". I have very thick wavy hair that's around shoulder length.

Hey all, so I read a few posts here from folks who switched from Wild to Fussy deodorant and am so glad I made the switch. So far, Fussy has been working significantly better for me than Wild did.

I also read that many people were able to use their newer Wild cases with the Fussy deodorant refills which was great since it meant I could reuse my Wild case. However, while it fits, I am finding that there seems to be a lot more waste leftover after. Like smushed all inside the case and at the base. While I can swipe and apply with my fingers and avoid wasting most of it, I am curious if this is a problem with the Fussy refills generally or if it’s because I’m using what is technically the incorrect case for them.

I’d like to avoid buying another metal case but will consider getting a Fussy case if it will reduce this issue and lessen the waste from what I’m unable to swipe out with my fingers after.

Thanks!

Yes, I've looked up this question for answers more than once, in every subreddit I could think of and also google and duckduckgo. Everything gives me the same answer on how to cut plastic from my life but I want to know how to destroy it. I do litter-picking around my neighborhood and manage to recycle everything I can, but at the end of the day I have a lot of single use plastic that is too broken or damaged for recycling and that's what I don't know how to handle.

Cutting it up into small pieces to avoid animals eating it releases microplastics. Leaving it in the scorching hot sun does the same. Burning it releases mega-cancer into the air. Composting it contaminates the whole compost. Throwing it in the trash makes it just go elsewhere, not dissappear. My country's recycling systems are inefficient and most of them just burn trash or bury it in natural areas. What can I even do about this?

And also yes, I am in treatment for my OCD, this is just a question that I can't stop thinking about.
