30 in 30 Days Challenge

January 10th, 2010 at 05:21 pm

Well, I did not think I would be able to participate in the 30 in 30 days Challenge. Well, I did yesterday and didn't even realize it until just now. I gathered up 2 pairs of blue jeans we no longer wear and also a bag full of plastic grocery sacks and took them to the local Salvation Army. Before I get flamed for not reusing my grocery sacks, please let me assure you I have enough plastic sacks to last for quite some time. However, the Salvation Army and Goodwill can't do without donations and I know they can use bags. Also, I found another pair of blue jeans and more plastic grocery sacks to take to the Salvation Army today. I think I will count the plastic grocery sacks as a group. So far, I have gotten rid of 4 things. Wow. That's pretty cool. I also got rid of 2 pairs of socks that were threadbare. I just threw them away. So that's 6 things so far.

-------------------

As an update, I do want to say that I do use reusable nylon grocery bags for the most part.

    Good going.

    i always get a certain amount of plastic bags altho i use my canvas bags 75% of the time. but i don't have any other way to dispose of used kitty litter. so i have a small plastic bin that i line with the bags, then tie up when it's full.

    sometimes i save old socks to put on the bottom of furniture legs if i'm moving furniture around. i have old fir floors here, and let me tell you, they scratch so easily. They look great, but i'd never choose them if i was putting in a new floor.

    I try to remember my resuable bags, but yesterday I forgot. I reuse them for garbage in the bathrooms. They are the perfect size.

    Update everyone. I found 2 shirts today that I have not worn in at least 5 years and I can add to my giveaway pile. I feel a little bit bad about it, because they are nice shirts, but must be ironed every time they are washed and dried. I just don't have the time anymore. They are made of rayon and have a paisley pattern. Here is one that is similar.
