    I can recommend the plastic cutlery from M&S, very good quality and nice and smooth.

    I collect sugar sachets every time I have a coffee out (do alot of road trips for work so collect them from that). I havent bought any soap for almost two years as I bring them back from hotels we stay in. (plus anything else like shampoo) best save is if on a long haul flight saving the in flight bags they give you, have embarrassed all who were with me by picking one up from business class on the way out.

    Does it count to say I prefer to have a shower at work because its not my hot water bill?
  • :D I thought I was the only one who filled up my bottles from the hotel bathroom wall mounted smellies dispensers.

    I go to quite a few local all day conferences and seminars and at the end of buffet lunches quite unashamedly whip out my carrier bag and fill it full of leftovers and put it in my car. Amazing how much of this stuff will freeze !
    Occasionally someone comments, and I tell them if I was paid a decent wage I would be able to leave it for the pigswill man :rotfl: .

    Hi - I collect all the usuals too - so glad I'm not on my own in this! But I also stash the bubble wrap from the fruit in the supermarket- its great for ebay items or packing up breakables etc. No-one has ever questioned me, they're probably quite happy that its being recycled!
