Use envelopes and the back sides of paper from your bills & junk mail to make shopping lists or for art projects. Sign up to receive e-bills whenever possible and remove yourself from all junk mail lists to reduce the amount of paper coming into your home.

My green tip is to think ahead and take cold water with you everywhere! We live in Arizona and it is always hot and super tempting to buy a bottled water….so always have your own cold beverage with you!
Tiffany

Just stop buying things like paper towels, plastic baggies, etc. You’ll learn to live without them and save money and trash in the process!

My husband is a cartographer. He brings home huge maps that are no longer needed. We flip them over and the kids use them to make murals. They love it, and it gives the paper another purpose before recycling.

Take a reusable coffee cup with you when you go to DD, Starbucks, etc. and ask them to use that for your coffee instead of a paper cup.

I am a recycling freak. I always have a plastic bag handy in case I find something that needs or can be recycled and I take it home with me to put it in my recycling bins.

Drink water from a pitcher and if you are on the go use a refillable water bottle. And keep in mind that it does take some time to get used to not being so disposable. It’s a whole different mindset!
Pilar
I twitted! :)
Happy Earth Day!

Pick up the freebies reusable bags today! I just started using mine and not only is it good for the environment (yea!) it also reduces the clutter of plastic bags in our house.
Elizabeth
Use your reusable shopping bags!!!
Mary
I use CFL bulbs in all lights and wash clothes only in cold water, use cloth bags, rags-versus paper towels.

My tip is to recycle paper by printing on the back of already used paper (expired sheets of IP coupons, papers from work, school, flyers, etc.).
Kim Stewart
I put a bucket in the shower with me. The water doesn’t go down the drain and I can use it to water houseplants or my windowboxes!

My best earth day and frugal tip is to hang your laundry outside on a clothesline to dry.

My 6 yr old and I are definitly in the Earth Day mood… We have been collecting re-useable bags to use on our shopping trips!

We turn the water off when brushing our teeth!

I try not to accept any bags at stores anymore when I can carry the items myself!
Andi
The best that I can do is recycle everything possible. What the city won’t take, my husband takes the rest to the recycle place next to his work. It’s kind of a pain, but I hate to think of filling the landfill up with things that can recycled.
Kate
Give cloth diapers a try! Once you get into the swing of it, it is simple to wash them and not only is it green, it’s MUCH cheaper!
Thanks for the giveaway!

We use reusable water bottles and also we have a water delivery service that picks up 5 gallon jugs and reuses them. It costs the less than buying bottle water but it also uses very little plastic.
