Great tips! About your newspaper: Ask around and find someone who doesn't care about coupons but wants to read the paper on Sundays only. Then you can share the subscription, it'll cost you only 40c/week, and it'll be better for the environment! 'Becca’s last blog post: Toilet Training Tips

Love this list. I also try to make myself wait a while so I can decide if something is a valid acquisition or not. ie can I borrow it from someone instead of buying it? do I really need it? can I repurpose something else? but I love your post – ah, the wanting less….

Great post!

I am starting to cut out certain magazines and channels out of our lives that just make us all want more, more, more.

What a wonderful title for this post! As Americans, if we all practiced this a bit more our national savings rate would skyrocket and our landfills would have vastly more space. Since our son was born, we’ve found that what we really want isn’t stuff but family time. That means we’re willing to buy less, buy used, and get creative instead of having to work long hours just to consume more material things that we don’t really need. We’re glad you joined us this Thrifty Green Thursday!

Living in a small house helps too. I just don’t have room to keep a lot of extra stuff around for the sake of having extra stuff around.

Thanks for joining in the parade.

I love this list. I often think about my family having to go through all of my junk and stuff. It really bothers me. I really need to start purging and stop hanging on to little stuff.

Great tips!
