Little Switches That Make A Difference
Posted by Moms Fun Money on Wednesday, April 6, 2011
Socialmoms.com had another topic starter today, Little Switches That Make A Difference. This got me thinking about things we probably all do from time to time to make life easier for ourselves.
*Switching to and from day light savings - Do you like it or not? For the first week my sleep pattern is all thrown off, but I love extra sunlight :)
*Switching from name brand products to store brand - Have you done this? I am always looking for ways to save some money and am open to trying store brands. I have been pleasantly surprised in most cases that their products are just as good as the name brand.
*Switching grocery stores - I love my local Ralphs store, but if another store is having a great sale I will shop there for a week. How many stores do you shop at?
*Switching shampoo and conditioner - I do this all the time, mainly because I buy items when they are on sale and am open to many brands. But, I have also heard that switching from time to time is good for your hair.
*Switching from plastic to recyclable bags - I do this at Ralphs, mainly because they give you points for each recycle bag that you use, so I have a pretty good collection by now. All of them were FREE! But I am not that good at remembering to bring them with me when I shop at other stores. For awhile I was keeping them in the back of my car all the time, but I really do not have a lot of room. Even as I am writing this I am thinking that I could at least keep 2 back there to help out our environment.
So how about switching toilet paper? Do you do it? I have a few brands that I will switch back and forth on depending on sales and coupons. Cottonelle has a new website all about switching to their brand. You can check it out here: www.CottonelleUltraSwitch.com
