Join me every week for Win-It Wednesday. I’ll be posting several 24-hour giveaways throughout the day to give you plenty of chances to win!

Maybe you’re not ready to go full on green and use cloth for napkins, paper towels, or *gasp* even TP, but Marcal has a decent compromise with their Small Steps line of products. Marcal Small Steps are produced from recycled paper so they’re gentle on the environment while still being easy on the wallet.
We’ve been giving many of the Marcal Small Steps products a test drive around our house, and while they may be slightly less soft than their traditional counterparts, I’d say the environmental impact outweighs any slight difference in quality. If you want to give Marcal a try for yourself, there was a FREE Marcal Paper Products coupon in the 1/31 Smartsource insert!
Marcal Paper is dedicated to providing paper products to consumers like you that you can feel good about purchasing. As an “Earth-Friendly Paper Goods Company,” they believe products should work well, be good for the environment and be affordable. All of their products are made from recycled paper.
Four Deal Seeking Mom readers will win a Marcal Paper Products Package including:
- Dinner Napkins
- Napkin Drawstring Bag (180 ct.)
- Upright Facial Tissues (80 ct.)
- Facial Tissues (144 ct.)
- Single Roll Giant Towel

We make sure to print on both sides of our computer paper – especially those annoying extra sheets that print with one line on them from an email or webpage.

I give my kids damp washclothes instead of napkins.

I use handi wipes. I just toss them in the wash as needed and reuse them.

I cut dryer sheets in half & reuse each one twice. I give everyone a cloth/hand towel/napkin plus have a stack of paper ones on the table but mostly we use the cloths when we can. I use newspaper on mirrors instead of paper towels. We’ve become more aware of using the proper amount of sheets of tissue paper to avoid waste. I keep 2 stands of hand towels setting directly in front of the roll of paper towels so if it can be used instead, it is.

Here’s how I save paper – when I print coupons, I use the large “empty” space to write out my upcoming list.

I recycle all newspapers & junk mail, shred private mail. I reuse envelopes as note pads, and new/or shopping list & coupon holders. I do ask for paper instead of plastic bags at the store (plastic isn’t environmentally friendly) but use my paper bags for other things or return with them to the store.
