• The Winning Tip For February

  I recycle and compost; use microfiber cloths that can be washed rather than disposable products. I use knitted dishcloths, and use either ecologically safe cleaning products or make my own from white vinegar, baking soda and borax.

  Helen L
  Eagle Pass, TX

• We gave up using paper towels, and purchased 48 shop rags (which look like inexpensive white washcloths), which we use to clean counters, wipe up spills, etc., then throw them in the laundry. When they get too worn to use in the kitchen, we use them to wash floors, woodwork, etc.). We've saved a bundle not buying paper towels, and we generate a lot less trash.

• We keep a decorative basket in the office where we open mail to make it easy and convenient to save the recyclables instead of throwing them into the trash.
