If you purchase toilet paper that is individually wrapped, don't throw the paper away. Stack and store until it's time to take your pooch for a walk. Just tuck a sheet in a plastic bag and when Fido is finished doing his duty use the paper to scoop away the poo! (Kind of fitting, huh?)
I also use the sheets to wrap up sanitary napkins before throwing in the trash. Not a pleasant image, but they sure are thrifty. :)

I agree, very thrifty! It's great that every member on this site has great ideas about every day living!
And much more environmentally friendly! If you "store" the paper in a plastic bag till home, dump the contents out of the bag and recycle the bag. I use paper bags now to scoop the kitty litter instead of the plastic bags (course our recycling center takes plastic bags for recycling so that helps)
This is such a good idea. Especially wrapping up those sanitary products in before trashing. Saves on toilet paper. Every little bit of recycling helps a lot.
