Refuse sacks

Options
Here's a little tip that I discovered whilst walking round Tescos with my mp3 player blocking out the reality of shopping.

I used to buy the cheap see through variety of refuse sacks that always give way and dump your rubbish on your feet as you carefully place them in the street for collection so I move on to the more heavy duty tie handle refuse sacks for my weekly rubbish.

However, I have a small bedroom that doubles up as an office and has a large dust bin that collects general waste. Being that the office collects nothing but light weight waste and any other rubbish from upstairs I can use the very cheap variety of bin bag and keep the stronger variety for the overall house waste.

The decent bags from Tescos cost £3.34 for 40 (8p each)
The cheap Tesco value variety from Tescos cost £0.71 for 30 (2p each)

Bare in mind you're only going to throw it in the bin anyway... I hope this tip helps to save a few pence ;)
