Go green!

1. DO A "WRAP FREE" GIFT. Use all that newspaper you have in a bin ready to be recycled. Over 38,000 miles of ribbon alone is thrown away during the holiday season. Don't contribute to the waste.

2. BE FULLY LOADED. Do full loads of laundry, not just a bunch of little ones. You save energy (yours and fuel) and time.

3. GET VIRTUAL, MAN. Put bank accounts and statements on line. Get rid of that monthly paper clog.
