We recycle everything, and get the money back on our bottles and cans. We turn off lights as much as possible. I try to use reusable bags, but I always forget!!!

We used to do a large garden but the last couple of years, we've limited ourselves to just a few favorites in container. Way easier! LOL
Same here! I've started keeping them in the van in the hopes that I'll remember to use them more often!
I love finding uses for things that normally get tossed out. We now save the cardboard tubes from the aluminum foil; dh uses the band saw to cut them into three or four inch lengths and we use them to store electrical cords from appliances, computers, games, etc. My catch-all drawer actually looks kind of organized now!

I don't consider it strange; I do the same thing! LOL Hey, those things can get expensive, especially when the family grabs them for everything from storing game pieces to small computer parts!
I have extra bags (from folks giving me toys for the boys or me just buying too many), so I'm sending a couple full of apples to my mum when Sis #2 visits her on Friday. :)
