Linda's Hints:
Here are a few $$ saving ideas as you use it all!...
To get the last drops out of almost any catsup bottle, grab the bottom of the bottle and start swinging in a circular motion from your side. The remaining drops will be forced to the top of the bottle...Oh, just make sure you have the cap on tight!
Sour wine: use it in place of vinegar, especially in marinades...
Flat Club soda: don't throw away your fizzless club soda. It had just the right chemicals to add vigor and color to your plants!
Milk cartons: good for free kindling. Start your fires with them.
Eggshells: dry them in the oven and pulverize in the blender to make excellent bonemeal, which is a great plant fertilizer.
Dired-out coconut: sprinkle with milk and let it stand until it regains its freshness.
Cardboard tubes: extension cords can be conveniently stored witout tangling if you wind the cord loosely and slip it into the cardboard tube.
